The Newest Member of the Acorn Family…

I want to introduce you to my wonderful new studio manager! Meet Mieke (Meek-ah). I’m super excited to have Mieke join me here at the studio and I know any of you that have the opportunity to meet her will love her as much as I do!

A Little About Mieke…
She is from South Africa, which explains her awesome accent. She has lived in 3 different continents over the last year. She met her husband while living and working aboard a humanitarian missions ship for 2 years. He is actually from the Jackson area and they came back here for him to attend law school. Since being here Mieke has also started studying graphic design. She loves scuba diving, has a great creative eye, is great with kids and might just be the most flexible person I know.

I’m feeling a bit like my life is super boring after telling you all about her! :-) Welcome Mieke, I am so thankful to have you on board!

Hope you have a wonderful week!
Erin

DANI & JEFF [ACORN WEDDING]

Dani and Jeff got married a couple of weeks ago at the Northpointe Red Barn and I had the privilege of photographing their big day. It was actually wonderful to finally meet Dani and Jeff in person because we had only communicated via phone, email and Skype since they live in TN. Dani put a lot of thought into all the details of their day. Even though it was an intimate event she made sure that their guests were comfortable with the ingredients for a good time. Planning a wedding long distance must be challenging but everything came together beautifully thanks to Lindsey and her team with dandyLion events.

Dani and Jeff, thank you for trusting me to photograph your beautiful wedding. I wish you both many blessings as you embark on married life together!

You can check out a slideshow with more images HERE.

Dani, you are beautiful!

Kapish and I met up quite awhile ago for her senior session and I am finally getting around to blogging some images from her session.

Kapish, I wish you all the best as you enter a new chapter of life after graduation!

COLE & TYSON [ACORN FAMILIES]

I have been photographing Cole since he was a few months old and his little brother Tyson since he was born. This family happens to be some of my favorite people in the world. It was time for some updated family photos a couple of months ago so we met up for a quick session.

EVELYN [ACORN FAMILIES]

Little Evelyn’s mommy and I went to college together and haven’t seen each other since because she moved up to Boston after getting married. I was excited to get to meet up with Evelyn and her mommy and daddy for a portrait session while they were going to be in MS visiting family. Evelyn has such personality–and we had some great conversations. The session started off when I arrived to find out that she had tried to style her hair with butter at the dinner table only a few minutes before. Life with little ones is so unpredictable. :-) After a nice hair washing and restyle by mom we began our session outside where Evelyn found a rock to carry around. I asked her if her rock had a name– her response: ‘Chrysanthemum.’ Children’s imaginations and Evelyn’s vocabulary never cease to amaze me. We had a really fun session and I certainly hope this isn’t the last time this sweet family makes an appearance in front of my camera. :-)

RHYS [BABY ACORN]

This cutie bug has become one of my favorite little subjects. This is session 3 of 4 of Rhys’s Baby Acorn sessions and I have so enjoyed getting to see him grow. I mean really couldn’t you just eat him up! I keep telling his momma that they are going to have to watch out when he realizes how cute he is and especially when the girls realize how cute he is. ;-)

Courtney and Brett, thanks for sharing your little man with me!

CARA [ACORN BABY]

After several weeks of a very quiet blog and then studio news on Monday it is time for regular posting to begin again. I have about 10-12 sessions that I will be blogging over the next couple of weeks and first up is Baby Cara and her big sister Reese. I met the girls along with their mommy and daddy at their beautiful home for Cara’s first photo session. She is such a doll and slept through most of her part of the session. Big sister Reese wasn’t so sure about me at first and the whole picture taking thing but she warmed up and we had quite a bit of fun outside after awhile. Her big soulful eyes in this first shot make me smile. I’m looking forward to getting to know these two girls this year as I will be photographing them throughout Cara’s first year.
