Jaclyn is one of the smartest sixteen year-olds that I have ever had the pleasure of meeting. She has a great sense of humor and a terrific spirit.
She wanted to do some Senior photos that reflected more of her personality. So we headed down to Garden City to take advantage of some great light and funky spots.
I love photographing families and kids. Kids are so great! So whenever I head down to Charleston, I love to taking pictures of my sister's kids. I know that pretty soon they may get tired of their Aunt pointing the camera at them, but until then I will keep taking advantage of it. Who knows, perhaps one of them may want to try their hand at it, I know that one of them got a camera for Christmas and seems to be a budding little photojournalist. I can only hope.
When I married my husband Dale, almost five years ago, we decided to spend our honeymoon at Dollywood, Nashville and end up in Memphis. We could have skipped Dollywood and Nashville. But Memphis. Well, it was wonderful. Not only are we total Elvis fans and believe that BBQ should be it's own food group, but we finally got to visit Graceland. Me and Dale think Elvis was/is the coolest, we don't dress up in jumpsuits or anything, but if you give me a call and have to wait for me to pick up, Elvis songs will keep you entertained. We also named one of our cats Elvis, he is the last photo in the bunch.
So in honor of the King's birthday I thought it might be fun to share some of the pictures I made then at Graceland and Sun Records.
Hope you enjoy!
I've always thought myself lucky to have worked in newspapers with some really great folks.
One of those folks is Ron Morris, the sports columnist for The State newspaper. Ron is a great writer and can even be seen on WOLO TV, channel 5, every Monday at 6pm and 11pm, and recently I had the opportunity to do some portraits of the Morris family.
We had a terrific time making pictures around Lake Murray. Here are a few of my favorites.
