Hello and welcome to my studio journal! I'm so happy you stopped by! This is the place to come to see what's new in my world.
I am a children and family photographer based out of Birmingham, Alabama. I specialize mostly in natural light, and I have a natural light studio in historic downtown Homewood. Some of my favorite things to do include searching for cool vintage fabrics and furniture, spending way too much time on Etsy's website, and spending way too much money in Anthropologie's store! I am also drawn to beautiful design and modern, clean lines. My biggest "loves" are children and photography, and I am so blessed to be able to combine those loves with my other interests to create art every day! My style is contemporary, yet classic. When I shoot, my goal is to capture the heart of my subject(s).
I hope that you will check in often to see what's going on in my world. Bookmark me or add me to your google reader. And I especially love to hear your comments! Come back, and come back often.
I LOVED meeting Anderson and Mae last week. They were completely laid back and absolutely adorable. Unfortunately the weather was not stellar on the day of our session, so I spent a LOT of time with my back side pressed all the way against the window in an effort to get as close to the light as possible. I’m sure all of downtown Homewood appreciated the view I provided. :) Regardless of the dark skies, Anderson and Mae brightened my day!
First of all, I want to say thank you to all of you who took the time to vote in the Best of 2011 Contest a couple of weeks ago. This was so much fun, and I loved the friendly competition that my sweet clients had going on! :) Needless to say, it took us a while to tally the votes, and I thank you all for your patience with that!
So, without further ado, I would like to say congratulations to our winners:
First Place: Picture #5 Twins in a Bucket (or as one commenter pointed out, it should have been “Twins in a Washtub”!)
Second Place: Picture # 6 Little Miss Serious
Third Place: Picture #58 Red-Headed Kiss
And our lucky commenter who will receive either a complimentary session (no prints included) or the two Organic Bloom frames is Diane Phelps.
Congratulations to our winners! Winners, please contact me at hswanner@charter.net to arrange to receive your prizes!
- Really wanted to win, but 3rd place isn't so bad considering how cute the competition was!
For those of you desperately waiting by for the results of the Best of 2011 Contest, we will have them in a couple of days! Sorry it’s taking so long. We just want to be sure that everyone’s votes get counted properly. So, stay tuned! :)
Exactly two short years ago, I was taking newborn photos of Emily’s older brother. My, how time flies! I must confess that Emily did not give me quite the run for my money like her older brother did at her age….she slept through her whole session. She was an absolute dream to work with! I had so much fun dressing Miss Emily up while she was sleeping!
- Heather. You are an incredible photographer!! These are amazing! The baby's grandfather shared them with Dianne and the staff at Dawson. What an amazing gift you have. I will stop by your studio before long and say hello!! Tommy
I was so honored that Baby Nicholas’s mom decided to make the drive over from Jackson, Mississippi, for his newborn session. We thought it might be a bust when he didn’t want to settle at first. Magically, the sleep fairy decided to creep in and allowed me to capture some beautiful images. Welcome to the world, Baby Nicholas!
