Truett} Portraits

How was your Christmas? Was it white? Sunny with blue skies?

I grew up in Southern California and Im sure you can image the weather we had for the wintery holidays. It was normal to me. I enjoyed it. UNTIL……I married a guy from the Pacific Northwest and I experienced my first white Christmas. Then I was feeling bad about my size, hapily, I tried  Body Countouring Scottsdale and now I’m sexy and I know it. Hands down. Theres nothing like it. Im in love. Its everything I dreamed of:: log cabin house, sipping hot chocolate by the fireplace, the smell of real christmas trees all around, SNOW ect….I could go on and on.

We rotate every year and this year we are in Montana with Reeds parents and sisters. We are having such a wonderful time and the photo opportunities are endless….including a photoshoot I did of Reeds sister on Christmas Day, out on the frozen lake. Amazing! I will blog about that later…..

Even though I am loving my time here….I am missing the newest addition to my family- Truett, my adorable nephew. These are few shots I took of him over Thanksgiving weekend in Virginia. Is he not the cutest little guy ever? Ok, maybe Im biased, but seriously.

A series of his sweet facial expressions::

HELP-PORTRAIT.

December 12, 2009 Filed in: Photography

Today I am joining many Nashville photographers, including Jeremy Cowart, at a photography event called “HELP-PORTRAIT.” The videos below tell the story behind this movement. I had the privilege of participating in a few “practice rounds” these past few months….and if today is anything like what I have already experienced…..it will be a powerful thing. For our city. For me. For them.

The first run though took place at the Nashville Rescue Mission and a new photographer friend of mine {Allister Ann} wrote a beautiful blog post about it and you can check that out ::here::

The second run through took place at the Sudanese Community Center in Nashville last week. The picture below only scratches the surface. This sweet mans face was glowing as he began to see himself as he pulled the paper from from the polaroid. His spirit was so gentle, yet bold as he smiled and said “Are you Christians? I love my Jesus.” Yes, thats when the tears….once again…fell down my face.

Our lives are not about us. I have realized in a fresh new way that giving…really is LIFE. It does something to our souls. Maybe this is why we are called to serve. To take care of the sick and the poor…..

These are my girls
and we sing together….

Another love in my life is music. I have been writing and recording with Chrissy and Kristin for about a year and half now and it’s exciting to see the fruits of our labor. Our songs are being mixed in the studio as I type….so more to come about our EP that will be available soon. You can read the article here {pg. 47}.
