Miss Daisy!!! Or as my kiddos have lovingly called her for years – “Milla” (short for Amelia Daisy)… I can’t believe how grown you are!!! This sweet girl has been through so very much over the last few years, and is about to embark on some new challenges. Daisy’s family has been in our lives […]

Oh wow. Y’all. When we approached this session, I have to be real honest – I was a little nervous. I remember even telling Paige (my lighting gal) when we were on our way to Nashville that I was feeling the nerves because LAST YEAR’s session with Ella was SO GOOD, I was worried we […]

It is prom season and frankly, I love it. No matter how you feel about your prom attire from days gone by, in the moment, you always felt like you nailed it. For many of our teens this is the opportunity to dress up like they never have before. It is so much fun to […]

This week’s WTWW [What to Wear Wednesday] takes us to the FACE, and we have a guest post from the SAP studio assistant AND makeup artist extraordinaire – Charli Cotner! I just love how much she loves what she does, y’all. When you’re creating art, whether it’s through a camera or makeup or whatever medium […]

My first team consisted of four seniors representatives. Three from Greenbrier high, and one from East Robertson. When I first started teams, I honestly had no clue what the goal was going to be. I just knew that it was super common in the Senior Portrait industry, and that all my mentors suggested that I […]

I’ve been meaning to blog and share this session for what feels like *weeks* now, but every time I sit down to do it, I have been pulled away for one reason or another. Yesterday, I told myself THIS was happening today, and this morning I woke up and saw on my calendar that it’s […]

I was talking this morning with a colleague about how this is my 9th year in business, how so much growth happens over time, and how much you see and capture in those years. I feel like it’s pretty obvious from my website, social media presence, and studio walls that teen & senior GIRLS are […]

Black. Leather. Metal. Dramatic Makeup. Attitude. All of these things happen to be my favorite. People with an edgy style seem unafraid and inherently cool. It may be the hardest to pull off, but when you do???? OH BOY! It blows me away every time. When choosing outfits, no matter what your style is, I […]

Flowy, natural, romantic, layered. Tiny floral print on a peasant top with flared jeans and oversized beaded bracelets. A white, loose fitted, baby doll dress with short camel booties and large turquoise teardrop earrings… THIS is what boho styled dreams are made of. I think out of all the “styles” boho feels the most effortless. […]

Baby, it’s COLD outside!!! All this winter weather has me thinking about layers, so I thought that might be a good topic for this week’s What to Wear Wednesday! You know what I love more than a whole bunch of things? A really cool jacket. Whether it’s sequined, or leather, or furry, or floral… I […]

Just like with every new year, we have new goals. Personal goals and business goals… New blogging goals are on the top of my list, because I know I’ve fallen behind on the blog over the last year. There are a few reasons why I like to blog – One, I love to write… Even […]

If you are anything like me, the first thing you start thinking about, okay, OBSESSING about, is what to wear in your pictures. Sometimes I know exactly what look I’m going for and the trouble is finding the perfect pieces to make it go from a “look” to a “lewk.” Other times, I have no […]

When we started talking about blogging for 2021, I knew there were a few things I wanted to touch on regularly – What to Wear being one of them! One of the #1 things I’m asked is “Shelby…. what the heck do I wear???” Since this answer is a little more involved than just a […]

Y’all. It is February. Can you believe it? Because I can’t! As our teams come together and mini sessions start, I am falling more and more in love with how this year is beginning. With so much fun planned, we will be sharing more on Facebook and Instagram (so make sure you are following us!) […]
