Stephanie and Andy Broom along with Braden's grandparents, Jessie and Larry Broom, arrived at the studio with some pumpkins for props and a harvest setting. We provided the football and Braden provided the smiles. Check out the slideshow.

What a fun time for all. Braden is part of our Baby Plan, a photo session at 3, 6, 9, and 12 months which results in a four-panel, framed, ready-to-be-hung portrait of a photo from each. This is a favorite of our former brides.

Tess and Josh Ross, Bride and Groom Session, September 7, 2006

Tess and Josh Ross were in Chattanooga for their brother's wedding. Since Josh had to have a tuxedo and Tess' wedding dress was here, they made arrangements to meet with us at the Read House for a one-year anniversary "bride and groom" session.

When you look at the pictures from Amanda and Tripp's wedding you will see why we consider ourselves blessed beyond words. Amanda and Tripp are two of the nicest people you will ever meet and when they exchanged their vows in front of family and friends we all sensed that this was a very special day.

Shae and Bryan, Engagement, September 13, 2006

We met Shae and Bryan on Wednesday morning, the day after having climbed Mt. Laconte and descended. We were tired and sore but excited just the same. They are a sweet couple and will be getting married in just about two weeks. God bless you, Shae and Bryan, in your life together.

Caroline Newton, 6 months old, September 7, 2006

Laura and Fred Newton are two special people that we just love. We photographed their wedding several years ago (married February 1, 2003). Laura brought Caroline to the studio for her first studio visit. She actually had been here before, as in before she was born! She is such a doll and we are excited to be able to photograph her. We heard just last week that her Uncle Jon will be getting married soon, in Brazil. Congratulations Jon! We love you too!

Liz really enjoys these times and thoroughly loves the relationships.

Caroline seemed to have fun just being in front of the camera and we hope everyone enjoys the slideshow.

Jackson Shutters, 3 months old, August 31, 2006

We have lots of favorite couples and it is always fun to see them come to the studio with new babies. Maggie and Patrick Shutters are among our favorites. It has been a blessing for us to be a part of their lives and it thrills us to see their family grow. We look forward to the years ahead and pray God's blessing on this big, beautiful, baby boy, Jackson.
