Light and Life


Today we shift gears a bit – from newborn babies to baby mamas! This radiant mom-to-be happens to be extra special because she’s Jeff’s sister, Sarah. Sarah and Ben moved back to Tennessee earlier this summer, and it’s been fun to have them closer to home. Last month, we spent a gorgeous Saturday afternoon taking their maternity pictures in Franklin.

Jeff and I are big on natural light…we’d even go so far as to say that lighting is the single most important factor in distinguishing good photography from great photography. Scheduling this shoot during the “golden hour” made the photos all the more beautiful. Not only was Jeff able to experiment with some interesting lens flares, but the horizontal light from the setting sun cast long shadows across the landscape that enhanced Sarah's internal glow.

There is something so sweet about these images - the natural beauty of the great outdoors combined with the natural beauty of a woman who’s about to bring life into the world. Special, isn’t it?
