frost photography

 One of my latest shoots took place in St.Simons. Having grown up on the island and now living in Macon, one of the biggest things I miss are the great locations for exploration and photography. Exploring every inch of that island is one of my favorite memories of growing up there. Sitting on top of the Fort Frederica ruins overlooking the marsh is one of the best places to watch the sunset. Not supposed to be there after hours, makes it even more fun :) Sitting under the stars laying in a field near the beach and riding bikes at 2am are priceless activities that were very normal to me. There are so many distinctive and unique places on that tiny island that I love. I couldn't wait to do a shoot back home, and I got to do one with one my very favorite families at Christ Church. It was a true delight to capture these four and their sweet dog, Peace, while I was home for a long weekend. This is a mama who truly loves her family and is raising them up in such a loving and devoted way.

My three best friends and I got to spend the day together watching some great baseball on Saturday- Braves vs. Mets, double header. I thought it would be fun to get some slugger shots of us four to get us in the mood for the game. The fun car rides, beautiful day, behind home plate close seats, and an excellent game made it a wonderful day. Any time I attend a baseball game it makes me want to play again. Being the tomboy that I was growing up, my favorite part of playing was sliding or stealing a base. My legs were always covered in strawberries. I found my old slugger picture from the my first team I ever played on when I was either 5 or 6. We were the Little Rascals :) I used my dad's baseball glove which was way too big for my tiny hand, but it worked great.   I loved playing baseball, collecting baseball cards, and the Sandlot a lot back then. It's funny how going to this game has reminded me of all of this.  Here are some other shots from our

I had such a fun day on the beach with my family and three nieces and nephew. It was just one of those perfect days that I will always think back at as one of my favorite days of my entire life. There was a lot of running, jumping, smiling, and playing going on. I'm so thankful I brought my camera to capture these amazing kiddos. These kids have a knack for huge smiles. They're just so full of love- such happy kids. They get really excited over the littlest of things. That's one reason why I enjoy being around them so much. They find so much joy in running through water, watching birds fly, and digging in the sand. I cherish every minute I have with them.  Seining is something my father really enjoys doing; he's the dedicated one shoulder deep in the water in the photo below. You can catch shrimp and crab for a yummy feast, but unfortunately small fish also get caught in the net. I can't stand seeing them die before we can get them back to the water

I've been wanting to take advantage of the pretty weather, so I decided to get some work done out on my porch today. Blue skies, plenty of trees, birds chirping, and my puppy sunbathing next to me is a nice place to hang out. This is my first blog, first post, first go at this. So even if I turn out to be a miserable blogger, the morning will not have been spent in vain because I spent it outdoors.  A couple days ago, I had the privilege to do a shoot with two cutie pies, Elisa and Gavin. I approached Paula to see if she would let me do an experimental shoot with her sweet little ones! She had told me that her children were comfortable and used to being in front of the camera, so I was excited to play a little with ideas that a lot of parents would be a little hesistant towards. I'm glad she was brave and trusting when I told her my idea was to have her kids finger paint.  Lots and lots of colorful paint, smiley kids, a beautiful backyard full of a bounty of trees and flowe
