Ever get the feeling you are playing a long, drawn out version of musical chairs? No? Well, I do! Why yes folks, I am moving my studio AGAIN! My big announcement is finally here! This is my third move in three years and hopefully the last. The lease was up and it was a good...
I am a wee-bit behind in my work and it has been over a week since I have blogged. Life has been quite nuts here in the Smith household but with the summer approaching I feel myself catching up from my busy spring. I was a little unsure on weather I should blog this post....

Ok, before you Mommies out there start beating yourselves up for not documenting your family photos like these below, just stop! Let me at least tell you that most of my family photos are not taken with my “fancy camera” (as I have heard many of you call my Canon Mark II.) The truth is...

Shew, I am pooped! This Spring Break and Easter weekend couldn’t have come at a better/worse time for me. My family and I have been in desperate need of a re-connect and some serious quality time. So, we are off to our lake house. Our favorite place to be and the perfect place to do...

Eighteen years ago today I feel in love with a 16 year old, Led Zepplin lovin’ boy who’s favorite outfit was Umbros and a surf T paired with deck shoes! He wasn’t like the other boys and quickly learned he had the heart of gold. Not to be super cheesy here….but it really was love...

My Dearest Jaime,
I have to tell you that I am so sorry for the loss of your grandad Merril. He was kind and sweet, well-mannered and humorous. He will forever go down in the books as the epitome of a southern gentleman. Your photos, as always,amazing,brimming with emotion. I have tears in my eyes but memories of him bring a smile to my lips. He will be missed by all of us.
