Beauty and the Beast Gala; Scottsboro Alabama event photographer

I had the opportunity to photograph this wonderful event in Scottsboro.  If you do not know about the Beauty and the Beast Foundation, it is a local foundaton that helps women (and men) who have been diagnosed with breast cancer with funding

when they need help.  It's a wonderful organization. 

The gala is a fundraiser that is held to help raise money for them.

If you missed it this year, be sure to attend next year.

There are door prizes, good food, dancing, and great company.

Bruce did a great job of decorating.

I hope I'm invited back next year.

Congrats to all of you survivors out there!

The two great people behind the event...

I loved that entire families attended together...

Fun times dancing!!

Jackson's Birthday party; Even photographer in Scottsboro Alabama

I've been in this little guy's life for 2 years now and I love taking pictures of his life.  He's a great example of starting babies out with photographers and how easy they are in front of the camera because of it.  He also has a great personality and is such a cutie pie!  Here's a little peek at his birthday party! First check out that delicious cake from Ellen's Creative Cakes.  Not only do they look good, but taste yummy and made from all natural ingredients!

Brody's First Birthday; Event photographer in Scottsboro, Alabama

In my opinion, there isn't much better than a room full of children of all ages.  I love being able to interact with them through my camera and converse with them at the same time.  It seems the smaller the child, the more captivated they are by my camera lens, and the older the child, the more they want to play.  Either way, I love being able to capture those moments. 

He went from this...

To this... 

What is it with kids and gold fish?  I've got to remember to have them on hand for all photo shoots!

Tea Party at the Scarlett Tea Room

One thing I love about being a girl is having the excuse to dress up, wear hats, and attend tea parties! Even though I don't like tea at all, I love all that comes along with a tea party. This one was for Tish and the women of her family, as well as the women of Erik's family. I must say the two families mesh well together. If you are in the area and need a place to have a tea, Scarlett's tea room is it! It's located in Chickamauga, Georgia, and just a short drive from Chattanooga. They have a train that runs from Chattanooga to Chickamauga, which would be great to stop off at Scarlett's for lunch and shop in the antique shops before heading back. I really enjoyed the afternoon of shopping the antique stores with my mom and grandmother! Here's a peek from the day. Enjoy!
Can you tell these two apart? I can!

Check out this door!

Tish and her surprise!!!

She wanted to wear my hat, so I wore hers
