New Year’s only comes once a year so you better celebrate in style! I love dressing for events and nothing accompanies a New Year’s kiss like the perfect ensemble. I almost always gravitate to two styles no matter the occasion: Mens-Wear and Ultra-Fem. I feel like nearly all women’s clothing can be generically broken into these two styles! So I thought I would share two looks. My model’s name is Lucia, she lives in Nashville! She is an absolute doll; her first look is a crisp, textured, tailored suit by Billy Reid with a lightweight button down, a smart pair of pointed-toe oxfords by Zara, Leopard socks, and a rosy cheek and don’t forget nude lip gloss! Her second look is a short party dress with a V-back from Anthropologie, a red satin peep-toe pump by Kate Spade, fingerless moto gloves by Carolina Amato, jeweled acrylic necklace by J-Crew and a...

As a photographer I feel very comfortable in front of the camera but rarely do I have my portrait made. This year I absolutely insisted that my very own family have their portrait made so we could hang it in my parent’s home and send out a family Christmas card.  Just FYI… we haven’t had our portrait made as a family since I was 10 years old.

Torrie’s shoot might have been in November but this girl is a summer time girl! Torrie is one of my favorite people ever… really! She is so witty and upbeat, mature, smart, she says what is on her mind and she knows what she likes! I’m pretty sure that anyone could get along with her! Oh and Torrie plays field hockey for All Saints Episcopal. I’m pretty sure she is the most vital player to the team, no offense other players. I do hope you love her portraits. She is such a delight and we had so much fun on her shoot.

Margaret’s shoot was one of my favorite this year, we had so much fun together and she has such a sweet spirit. Her personal style is simplistic but very classy-fem. I might have a little tan envy, seriously margaret has perfectly even tan skin! We planned her shoot base on two locations. The last location was truly my favorite! It was so lush and green, lots of tree coverage, really it was a photographers dream! Enjoy her shoot :-
