Life has kept us pretty busy lately, with lots of twists and turns. We needed a getaway. . . . after asking around we settled on High Falls State Park in Jackson, Ga. There hasn't been a lot of rain recently, so the falls were not as magnificent as they cold be, but the scenery was still beautiful and proved to be the grounding force we needed. The kids were excited to go and did pretty well, on what I thought the park employee said was a half mile hike, but was actually a 2

It was roughly about, two years ago, when I came across Summer Murdock and completely fell in love with her art. If you do not follow her, please, do yourself a favor and go check out her website. Her use of light and shadows, always has me in complete awe!! When I realized she taught a class, I immediately put it on my goal list! Two years later, I was able to take her Magic of Light Class over at Illuminate Classes !!! I learned so much in this class and am so thankful for

This sweet family waited an extra two weeks before they could be re-united thanks to a few minor maintenance issues and were the last to return from deployment! I know this sweet family was more than ready to be together again! The wait is never easy, but it is always worth it! Here are just a few of my favorite images from their homecoming! #Georgia #A10 #family #lifestyle #documentary #MoodyAFB #historian

It was certainly a first time experience for me watch these birds come home from deployment over seas. These sweet little babes were certainly excited to have their Daddy back home! Its never easy on kids to be with out a parent. Its a situation that is hard for them to grasp, but at the same time, the learn to be so strong. Thank you, Krueger family, for allowing to to be apart of such a special time in your lives!! #Georgia #family #lifestyle #MoodyAFB #A10 #historian #do

Sitting and waiting months on end for a loved one to come home can be wearing on ones soul. Its exhausting. Its stressful. Its a kind of torment I wish on no one. Its also a time where you grow as a person, as a couple, and as a family. You are pushed to your outer most limits mentally and physically. All of which makes homecoming that much more sweeter. . . . .a tangled ball of emotions that courses through your veins. So many feelings that you cannot even describe, you fee

I had the pleasure of photographing this beautiful family over the weekend! We've had so much rain lately, its been such a downer, and everything stays wet. I was pleasantly surprised to find that this beautiful spot wasn't too terribly wet after two days of rain! My favorite photos are almost always those when people are not camera aware. Not focused on the fact that I am there, shoving my camera in their faces, and completely just enjoying each others company and caught up

It is a very rare occasion that we get much of a winter here in south Georgia. Even more rare than that, is getting SNOW in south Georgia. That actually sticks to the ground and accumulates! We got two rounds. The first round was very light and instantly melted as it hit the ground. My monkeys watched from the window. I was sure just as soon as they were dressed it would be over, and I didn't want to get them excited. After a few minutes or so it stopped. About 5- 10 minutes

An evening with this sweet family !  These boys are so full a life and such a joy to be around!
