JeepHER - Ann

Play in the dirt, because life is too short to have clean fingernails.

The opportunity arose to photograph a beautiful lady, Ann. She knows how to have fun, be serious and enjoy life. Our photoshoot started at a Christmas Tree Farm in Braselton, GA - Cooper's Tree Farm and ended in a little area in Hoschton with her Jeep. 

I had never shot at a tree farm so Ann and I got to experience this together. We are most certainly going to go back next winter but possibly to a farm with taller trees. I, myself, had never experienced the cutting down of a fresh tree for the holidays because we always had fake trees when I was little. Watching families come out with their little ones and select a tree, cut it down and then get it loaded was eye-opening. Traditionally, my family never had anything special that we participated in during the holidays so I considered a new tradition for my own family. The giggles, excitement and smells of this place was very pleasing. 

Our next location is just a small spot in Hoschton that is right off Hwy 53. It has the most beautiful sunsets and you can get a couple different looks just by rotating left or right. The City of Hoschton is a very small town between Braselton and Winder. If you haven't been you should go, there are a few antique store here that would strike your fancy.

 To hire her for a photoshoot or for promotional work please contact us and we can provide her with information.

We are Family - Murray

Home is wherever my bunch of crazies are .... 

This blog is a little more personal and close to my heart because Cori and Ayden are an extension of my heart! Some of the best moments of my life have been shared with these two crazies!

Cori and I are best friends, soul mates and call each other wifey. Why? Because we can. We are the MurrayCain family and trust me when I say, WE WILL ROCK IT LIKE A MURRAYCAIN! This happens to be one of my most favorite sessions with Ayden and Cori to date. Because of our friendship I have grown to be a better photographer with each shoot. You can see in these photos what happens when you are completely comfortable with your photographer. You can see both their personalities in each photo!

Most people focus too much on what the photographer is capturing and are worried about posing and if the image is just like all your favorite Pinterest ideas you have pinned for the last month. One thing you need to remember is this: You hired a PROFESSIONAL PHOTOGRAPHER and you must TRUST their work. Forget they are even there and enjoy the moment. Have fun and with a little guidance from the professional you will have better photos!

Lifestyle sessions are fun and energetic and those images need to tell your story without captions. They should make you laugh, be in awe, smile, cry and/or just bring you happiness and joy. Those moments captured are going to be treasured for a lifetime and will be shared with so many people. The stories, the laughs, the moment ... everything in life is worth remembering. 

Cori & Ayden, thank you for allowing me to share so many moments with you both. Leah and I wouldn't know what to do without the both of you. We love you to the moon and back. <3

Chestatee Wildlife Preserve & Zoo

You know it is going to  be a great day when you hear the word ZOO!

What better way to kick off the 4th of July holiday than with a trip to the ZOO?!?! Our pick was the Chestatee Wildlife Preserve & Zoo in Dahlonega, Georgia. This is quite the little place to take your family and friends. You get to see animals that have been rescued and taken care of in their new homes. They have lions, turtles, elk, alligators, bears, wolves, zebras, exotic birds, and so much more! Live animals encounters are available as well as group rates for schools and other organizations. This is a must see if you are in Northeast Georgia!

Take a look at all the fun our group had during our experience!
