Some of you may know that we are preparing to welcome our 3rd child into our family in mid-November. For this reason I am only taking sessions until Sunday, October 16. This will give me a few weeks to proof and get galleries out before our sweet bundle arrives. I will be on maternity leave until January 2012. If you are expecting a newborn in December, I will try my best to get a session in dependent upon how things are adjusting in our home.

If you want photos for Christmas cards please contact me soon. I only have 5 or 6 full session slots available. I do have 2 dates of mini sessions. The details are below! To schedule a full session or a mini session please contact me at tina@tinarichardsphotography.com to get on the calendar! Thanks!

I got to meet up with this fabulous family of four a couple of weeks ago at this beautiful location! It was only about 500 degrees outside, but everyone was a trooper! We made it through, and I think the results are great. You can’t even tell anyone was sweating, can you? Since my sneak peek is a little late, I’m trying to make up for it with many different shots!

I loved all the arches!

You could tell how much these brothers love each other:

Looking for someone in my camera always brings out a smile!

And 9 year old boys are always tough to get a true smile from…this is about as close as I could get!

Thanks for a fun afternoon!

Do you “like” Tina Richards Photography on Facebook? We’re at 350 “likes,” and counting! Don’t miss out on announcements, special offers, and session sneak peeks!

…that’s what sweet, southern girls like Miss H do in the temperatures we’ve been having lately (think triple digits!) And unfortunately we’ve also had to dodge a lot of pesky gnats!! I can’t believe this sweet baby is already 1!! Here’s a peek at her one year session where she had to endure both sweltering heat AND gnats…but you’d never know it by how beautiful and happy she looks, would you?

This group looked awesome! A beautiful dinner venue made for gorgeous photographs. Congratulations, seniors 2011!!

I don’t normally shoot weddings, but I’ll take one on occasionally. A quick peek at the day! Thanks so much for letting me be a part of your special day Mr. & Mrs. P! I hope you enjoy the moments I captured!

I can’t believe I am writing about my baby’s 5th birthday. It seems like such a milestone age since they are in the process of going from preschooler to big kid!

I can honestly say the last five years have gone by way too fast. I can’t imagine our lives without her. Happy birthday, Gabby girl!

Here are some details from her ice cream birthday party. Such a fun time!

The title says it all, but I wanted to share…can you believe this cutie is already 7 months old?

Okay, so I took an unplanned “vacation” from blogging. Oops! I showed sneak peeks on Facebook during the summer, but I think it’s time to get back to blogging each session! So who better to begin with than my first official baby plan cutie! She’s already 6 months old, and sitting like a pro! How is that possible?! She was just in her mama’s belly! Here is Miss AK and her adorable family! I’ll be in touch soon with all of the photos!
