I am so excited to be over halfway to becoming an Accredited Photographer in The Portrait Masters. Here are my latest entries and awards.

Janet
Recently, I had the wonderful pleasure to have Janet come in for a session. To say she rocked it would be an understatement! You do not have to have an occasion as a reason to be photographed, just the desire to celebrate who you are RIGHT NOW in your life!

The Amazing Ms. Anne
Ms. Anne got in touch with me about being a part of my 4o over4o campaign after seeing a friends session I posted. I fell in love with her as soon as she came in! She has a heart of gold, and from what I hear is an awesome kindergarten teacher. There is something about her that just draws you in, and makes you feel all warm and fuzzy inside. Here are some highlights from that day.

Tonia’s 4o over 4o session
Tonia was one of my incredible 4o over 4o clients. She had the most amazing session and got some beautiful images! If this is something you would like to experience, I only have 6 spaces available for this. It includes hair and makeup as well as a customized session tailored to you. Let me help you see yourself as beautiful as you really are!

Vicksburg’s Best of the Best Photographer
I am so thankful and overwhelmed at winning Vicksburg’s Best of the Best Photographer for 2021! First, I would like to thank God for blessing me with this talent. Without Him, I am nothing. I would like to thank my family for supporting me on this journey, without your understanding and encouragement, I would not be where I am today. Last but not least, I want to thank all my wonderful clients who have supported me the last 21 years. I truly could not do what I do without all of you.

Portrait Masters Awards
I am so blessed to breakthrough to Bronze with Distinction level on The Portrait Masters competition. I am working my way to earn accreditation in my craft. I could do none of this without my wonderful clients who choose me as their photographer. I scored only 3 points away from Silver level. I am so blessed to be able to do what I love!

Shannon
I first met Shannon when I had my Grand Opening for my studio. She was asking me about headshots and such as she needed one for her new book. I had a couple of giveaways, and one was for a headshot session. Well, Shannon didn’t get drawn for that one, but the person who did win asked me to give it to Shannon as she needed it. We scheduled the session, and wow! This woman is as beautiful in the inside as she is on the outside. During her session, her daughter got dropped off at the studio, so we did a little impromptu Mother/Daugher session too! Shannon has written two books , one is Climbing Jacob’s Ladder and the other is The I Will Woman. Here is a link to her website if you are interested in learning more. Shannon’s Page
Here are some favorites from the session.

Stacey & Koury
Stacey and Koury won my Mother/Daughter look alike contest that was run recently in conjunction with The Vicksburg Post. It took a little while to get them in due to crazy schedules, but we finally made it work. Stacey and Koury, I had such a great time with the two of you and just love how close you are. Here are some of our favorites!

Terri’s 40/40
Terri contacted me after she had seen a friend’s portrait session to book her own. She has Alopecia and has decided to fully embrace who she is, and no longer wears wigs to cover it up. What an amazing amount of courage it must take to make that decision even though society tells us to cover, or hide anything that is not deemed “beautiful”. Well I think that Terri is GORGEOUS! Even more so for her courage! Here are some of my favorites from her session.
