It has been awhile since I've posted on here!! For that, I apologize.  Just a quick note to update you.  katiejames photography has a new phone number!  Very exciting, I know.  Copy it.  Paste it.  Save it.  Now.  ;-)

Also, I will be in the Chicago area the weekend of Easter (April 6-9).  If you are interested - or know anyone interested - in a portrait session, let me know!!!

Aidan's Bday Party

I recently had the opportunity to photograph Aidan's 2nd Birthday Party.  It was at an awesome bookstore in East Nashville:  Fairytales.  If you live in the Nashville area and haven't checked out this kid's bookstore, you really need to do it!!

Aidan was adorable and all the kids had fun - painting, playing, eating cake!!  It was everything that a 2nd Bday party should be!

I met Josh, Lindsey and Steven the first time when we met for our family portrait session.  They were so fun, nice and genuine!!  Josh works at a church here in the Nashville area - as we got talking, we realized we know some of the same people.  It's always fun to realize what a small world it is!

Steven has GOT to be one of the cutest 6-month-olds I've seen in a LONG time!!  He had amazing red hair, gorgeous blue eyes, and the most charming little smile!!  Josh and Lindsey-you've got yourself a heart-breaker there!!  ;-)

I'm already looking forward to the next time!!

The Murray's and the Palmer's

I think I've said this before, but one of my favorite things about being a family portrait photographer is getting to see the same people every year.  It is SO fun to see how each family grows and changes.

The first time I shot these families, Melissa and Cory were pregnant, then I got to shoot Bailey as a baby, and this year as a toddler!!

I also had a personal first on this photoshoot - Snaps, Bailey's pony came to the park for pictures!!  Bailey loves her pony and it was so fun to take photographs of the two of them - not to mention the rest of the fam (David, Teresa and Andrew!!).

My most wonderful neighbors had a baby girl a few months ago (she was either born on July 30 or August 1 - I can't remember!).  She was 6 or 7 weeks early and is such a tiny little bundle of joy!!  Her mama let me watch for an hour a couple weeks ago, so of COURSE I had to take my camera...and my new newborn tutu!!!  She was such a little sweetheart!  Was perfect for me while her mama was out running her errands.  Can't wait til next time, Mary! ;-)  Thanks for giving me the opportunity to babysit!
