Zahava's 3 Month & Family Photos - Sequoyah Park Knoxville
We had the pleasure of working with such an amazing family last week at Sequoyah Park. Rachel and David are a sweet couple who were up for anything (including climbing into some brush with a baby for a great photo opportunity), but their precious baby girl, Zahava, stole our hearts. Her sweet smile, adorable outfits and bows, and big, bright eyes simply made this family session. Zahava was an absolute joy to work with, and she was clearly aware of the camera (even if it took a little coaxing from her friend, a grey stuffed bear or a singing photographer).
Enjoy these tender moments from our family session with the Ortiz family.
The Kiyimbas - Knoxville Botanical Gardens & Arboretum Family Photos
I had the pleasure of capturing some incredible moments with this sweet family at the Knoxville Botanical Gardens. When the news and weather channels were calling for rain all weekend, I wasn't sure if we would be able to proceed with the shoot, but with luck on our side, the day proved to be quite beautiful (that's Knoxville weather for you). The flowers are currently in full bloom, and the colors are simply stunning; however, the shots were clearly made by this adorable little girl, Nani.
This was my first time at the Knoxville Botanical Gardens and Arboretum, but Michelle and Jimmy actually did a maternity session here before Nani was born. I was honored to be able to photograph their family now at the the same location with Nani and to catch some fun moments of love and laughter. Enjoy these endearing moments of the Kiyimbas at the gardens.
Winter Months with My Camera
The winter months seemed especially long this year. Rather than becoming a bear and hibernating with my camera for the winter (which was definitely tempting amidst what seemed like perpetual freezing temps), I decided to try my hand at working on other types of photography.
I focused on shooting models, nature, lifestyle, couples, and family this winter. I also decided to break out my film camera at many shoots to achieve a classic, light and airy look. Juicebeats Photography was even featured on a few blogs this season including Bitchless Bride, Bridal Guide Magazine, Lookslikefilm and few others coming out in the next couple months. I am excited for this year's wedding season, but I wanted to share several of the photos from my shoots this winter that encouraged my creativity and allowed me to capture a variety of fun, glamorous, and tender moments.
Aven's Fall Pictures
Hello friends. Juicebeats here.
I am excited to share with you Aven's fall photos at Founders Park on Campbell Station. Aven is incredibly enthusiastic and playful as you will see from the photos. I really enjoyed capturing the candid and spontaneous moments with her. Enjoy her photos below.
Kids by The Cove
Hello friends. Juicebeats here.
Last weekend I had the pleasure of photographing the Witmer & Davis kids at "The Cove" off Northshore in Farragut. The kids all wore white shirts and blue jeans to match. One of the challenges of the photo session was making sure all the kids expressions fit what I wanted to capture. Everything may appear great at first, but I noticed that sometimes when everyone else was smiling perfectly, one kid might have an eye half closed or be looking in a different direction. Despite all the challenges of getting 5 children to cooperate at the same time, it was a fun session with all of the trees and the lake in the background. This scenery created some beautiful and colorful backdrops for the photos.
Great session with some really great kids!
