Rachel’s newborn pictures

I wanted to share some of Rachel’s newborn photos from earlier this month. She was such a little sweetheart!

As we finished taking pictures, Rachel was absolutely worn out. I thought this was a very sweet moment as Rachel’s mother watched over her sleeping.

Even though Rachel was my main reason for taking pictures, I couldn’t leave without taking some photos of her older siblings!

Leather flush mount wedding album

Yesterday Melinda emailed checking on her wedding album because she was coming into town. Well, UPS must have been eavesdropping because it arrived today. Here are a few photos I took for a little teaser until this weekend.

January 20, 2010 - 6:43 pm Melinda - It looks uh-mazing! SO excited!

2010 FLIP FEST INVITATIONAL

For the past three day I have been inside the Knoxville Convention Center taking pictures at the 2010 Flip Fest Invitational hosted by Premier Athletics. With more than 2,700 athletes from about 15 states in men’s & women’s gymnastics, this competition is intense. I believe this was my sixth year of covering this event. Like the previous years, I covered the girls floor exercise and worked just over 35 hours in three days while shooting over 20,000 pictures. Yeah that’s not a typo, over 20,000 pictures! Needless to say, I have been recovering today while playing catching up. To view your photos online from Flip Fest, go to Action Pitstop Photography.

Dogs are man’s best friend

While I believe this statement, it doesn’t mean things always begin that way.

Before getting married, Erika had Cain and he was HER dog. He was a prissy little miniature pincher that went everywhere with her. At first we didn’t always get along. I liked to rough house and lets just say he didn’t. After Erika and I got married, he eventually came around and so did I. Over the past eight years we became very close. In fact, the term her dog turned into our dog. That’s why today was very tough, as we had to say goodbye.

Here are just a few of my favorite pictures of Cainy Boo.

January 14, 2010 - 9:53 pm Wes Hope - Losing a beloved pet hurts more than losing some family members. I'm so sorry for you guys. I hope the healing process begins swiftly.

January 15, 2010 - 8:25 am amyb77 - I am so sorry about Cain :-( I remember driving to Benton with Erika to look at dogs on her quest to find Cain. And he truly went everywhere with her:-) The thought of him gone makes me tear up.

January 18, 2010 - 2:55 pm Erin Browne - I'm so sorry to hear this. Our furry friends really do become part of the family, and losing one of them is devastating. We'll be thinking about you guys. Cain is adorable - you can tell he was a well-loved pooch. :-)

Lane Kiffin Leaves Tennessee

Unless you have been under a rock, you should know that Lane Kiffin announced that he resigned as from being the head coach for the Tennessee Volunteers. With national signing day only three weeks away, Athletic Director Mike Hamilton has a huge task in front of him. If we don’t get some one in quickly it could take our program years to recover. Thanks a lot Lane!

Mike if your reading this, my vote is to get Gus Malzahn on the phone quickly.

Knoxville Bridal Show

The Knoxville Bridal Show was yesterday and I had a great time talking with many different brides. Lot people think of bridal shows as just meeting with new brides but there is much more than that. I got to see several current brides that are still preparing for their wedding and some past brides that are helping their friends and family.

For those of you that follow my facebook page, you know I was preparing my booth all of last week. Here is the how everything turned out.

I did take a small break away from my booth to take a few pictures of the runway show by Wedding Wonderland.

Check back because 2010 is going to be an exciting year. Also feel free to leave an comments that maybe on your mind.

January 12, 2010 - 9:32 am Melinda - We're famous! AGAIN! The booth looks good!

February 6, 2010 - 12:40 am Roxiann - Yes, you did a very good job. I am inpressed with your work. It is the first i have seen in a long time that i have seen that has any real life to it. It snaps out at you and says "Look at me", good job. Roxan

Snow Day

With most of Knoxville shut down because of snow and freezing temperatures, I took a little time off myself. Silas and I got out and played until he couldn’t handle it anymore. Of course, I had to take a few pictures.

We didn’t get 10 feet out the door before Silas started throwing snowballs.
Here was our pitiful attempt at making Frosty the Snowman.

Making a snow angel is another must for any kid while playing in the snow.

I hope everyone had as much fun in the snow as we did!

Knoxville Bridal Show

For those that have been following my Facebook Fan Page, you know I’ve been working on my booth for the Premier Bride Knoxville bridal show this weekend. The show will be open from 11 am-4 pm at the Knoxville Convention Center. Come stop by, say hi, chat and see what’s happening.

University of Tennessee Sports

Today is the last day of 2009. What a way to end it with back to back Tennessee basketball and football! Here are a few images from the Tennessee vs Kentucky football game up in Lexington to finish off the 2009 regular season.

Denarius Moore sheds a few Kentucky defensive backs after catching the ball.

Even though your working on the sidelines it does not always guarantee a clear view. It seems that people are always stepping in front of you during key moments.

Eric Berry – enough said!

LaMarcus Thompson and Willie Bohannon jump on a fumble. 

Celebration!

Christmas 2009

Well once again it is late night Christmas Eve and I have just finished wrapping presents. For those that don’t know, we do a themed Christmas tree every year. Making the decorations as a family helps give the tree more meaning to us. Even though our tree may look like Halloween attacks Christmas, this year we decided on Spiderman since he is Silas’ biggest hero.

I hope everyone has a Merry Christmas and safe holidays!

January 4, 2010 - 1:09 pm Robin - I love your tree!!!
