Shooting Star Photography bio picture

I'm glad you found me!

Welcome to my blog! Take a look around. Here you'll find recent posts of sneak peeks from sessions I have done, as well as contests and news.

Photography gives me a creative outlet and a way for me to freeze time. Time goes by even faster with a child, and photographing mine allows me to keep her small and with me forever.  God gave me the gift of photography. I share my gift of capturing and freezing time with others, and the thought of how I am able to do that for my clients, family, and friends  - makes me smile!

Twin boys - R & S | Birmingham, AL twin photographer

Remember these guys?

They went home a few days after our NICU session, and I was able to visit a couple of weeks later and do their newborn session! They were precious and slept awesome despite being almost 2 months old! They were just a few days shy of their due date when I captured their sweetness -

Twin Brothers at Brookwood NICU | Birmingham, Alabama baby photographer

These adorable twin brothers were born about 2 months before their due date, but are doing great and will be going home very soon. In fact, one of them is going home this week! I know their parents are very excited about this news.

This family found me through the Pictures of Hope foundation, which provides a complimentary session and pictures to parents with babies in the NICU. I feel it’s a priceless gift I can give to parents by documenting this time in their baby’s life.

The staff and facilities at Brookwood Hospital were very impressive! The nurses were wonderful and so happy to hear what Pictures of Hope offers to parents.

Here are the special little guys I was blessed to meet this past weekend. Their mother was beautiful and beaming with pride at her handsome boys. This was the first time she had ever held them in her arms at the same time -

Pictures of Hope - Twins! | {Birmingham, AL NICU photographer}

John Daniel and Molly Kate - born at 33 weeks and going home 4 weeks later! Such sweet babies and such proud parents. It made the time I spent with them so nice - to see such gorgeous little babies and parents who were beaming with excitement.  After I left, they were one injection away from finally being able to take their first car ride and see their home. I am so proud to have been able to share this time with them today!

Jonas and Leanna turn 1 - {Birmingham, AL twin photographer}

I have adored watching Jonas and Leanna grow in the past year. I photographed them at 3 months and 6 months, and here they are turning 1 year old next week! It’s so fun to see how much they have changed and how their little personalities are developing. Jonas is standing and Leanna is close, but they both can get behind the push toy and walk all over. It won’t be long until they are running!

There are too many pictures in this sneak peek, but I can’t help it… with 2 cuties it’s too hard to narrow them down!

Oh, and can I mention how hard it is to get two mobile babies to sit still long enough side-by-side to look at the camera at the same time? They were a much more captive audience at 3 and 6 months :)

Holiday Mini Sessions in Atlanta!

I held my first mini session of the season in Atlanta last weekend. The good people at Atlantic Station gave me exclusive permission (which I shared with Jody on Sunday for her sessions!) to have access to their ENORMOUS and beautiful Christmas tree. The official lighting of the tree is November 22nd where they will have snow and everything! So go check out Atlantic station if you missed out on a mini session to see this gorgeous tree!

All of my clients for Saturday were repeat customers of those I’ve had throughout the year (a couple I have now shot 3x’s this year!) ! It was so fun to see how much they’ve grown and learned over the time!

Aren’t these guys adorable? I see some very cute holiday cards in their future. For a reminder of my options available - follow this link!

It was so much fun, even though it was cold! Thanks to my wonderful assistants who helped the day go off without a hitch! I look forward to 2 packed days of mini-session in Birmingham this weekend!

Don’t forget to submit your hoilday card orders by next Wednesday in order to have them in time for address and delivery intervals. Thanks again!

Triplets!

Words cannot tell you how much fun I had at this shoot! These babies are absolutely adorable and I feel so privileged to have been able to photograph them with their parents and grandmothers.

Sweet baby, Addison, is the oldest of the three, and the only girl! Look how precious she is in her daddy’s arm.

Here are some other favorites from our day:




The triplets’ great aunt knitted them these cute booties!

I cannot even tell you how hard we ALL had to work for this picture, but I bet the parents and grandmas will be so excited to see that we at least got one that kinda works. It’s not perfect, but I was thrilled :)
