Maternity Photo Session Advice from Felecia

Image
Maternity sessions as you all who have followed me know, they are some of my favorite memories to capture. I am in love with the simplicity and raw emotions.  I enjoy both indoors and outdoors. The most popular questions I am usually asked is should I do indoor or outdoor photos and what should I wear. With this blog I hope to answer as many questions on the subjects as possible. If you are planning to do your maternity session outdoors, you must know the pros and the cons. The number one reason you should choose outdoors, if you are a fan of natural light as myself. The next one is, an on-location offers your own individual style. You can also be more relaxed and I can capture candid shots with you , you husband/significant other, and kids.  The con of outdoors photos is the weather can be unpredictable. The day of your session it could be extremely hot, and if you have your make-up done, you don't want it to be ruin due to sweat. It could even rain that day. If you

I Fought Because I Didn't Want To Die

Ms. Chrystal is a ball of fire and a diva. I did her story on one of my first blog years ago, and I wanted to share it again. She has such a sweet spirit, and when I tell you this woman is a believer in God. I had never met Ms. Crystal until the day of our interview. Lets just say I felt like I had known her for a long time. She is very outspoken, strong willed, SINGLE, and fabulous. She is available gentlemen: however let me just tell you, you better have your "A" game right. I am Chrystal Calhoun and I am 40 years old. I have 3 kids ages 22, 19, and 17, and I am a 4 years breast cancer survivor. I first found my lump, when I was 35 years old. The first thing that came to my mind, if I die what would happen to my kids.  They were a lot younger then, so my main concern was with being a single parent, was what will happen to my kids if I was to die. I am not originally from Montgomery, all my family is back home, in another part of Alabama. I wanted to make sure tha

Thank you guys so much..! Have a Happy Holidays

Will Brave The Storm Again For My Rainbow

Growing up I dreamed of becoming a mother like most little girls. Due to some medical issues, I was told I would never be able to have kids and if I ever did get pregnant it wouldn't be with out a cost. When I was 19, I met my now husband. He was 17 and honestly I don't think we expected our life to become what it has. 1 year and 11 months  ago I received a Facebook message from an old friend. We were not on good terms and hadn't been for awhile. She said “hey I want to call you and talk to you about something important or on here is fine” I replied with my number and waited on her to call me. I didn't know that what she wanted to ask would change our lives forever. I remember the day like it was yesterday she was five months pregnant and wanted us to adopt the baby. At first I was so confused and didn't know what to think I knew I needed to talk it over with my husband I was so afraid he would say no. He didn't want kids yet but I did and the thought

I met this family several months ago, when I was invited into their home to photograph their newborn daughter at just about 10 days old.

The Family Then and Now Mama and the kids (Then and Now) Big Brother and Sister (Then and Now) Mama and Daughter (Then and Now)  Mama wedding dress (One of my favorite photo from this year.)

I hope you all have a Merry Christmas!       

God Gave Me Another Chance to Be a Mother

My name is Sierra. When I found out I was pregnant with my first child in August of 2015 it was the best feeling in the world. I couldn't wait to tell everyone and to meet my unborn child. That feeling was short lived. My world came crashing down when me and my husband went to the doctor at my ten week appointment. My doctor checked for a heartbeat, but couldn't find one. She told me not to worry do to the fact I wasn't that far along. She scheduled an ultrasound the next day. When I went to the ultrasound the tech told me my child didn't have a heartbeat. I couldn't do anything but cry. I choose to let the miscarriage happen naturally instead of getting a d&c right away. A week later I woke up bleeding heavy and went to the emergency room. When they finally rushed me into surgery 6hours later the doctor informed my husband that he almost lost me as well do to the fact the Er Doctors didn't send me to them right away. I ended up having to get six b
