Middle Tennessee Newborn Baby Photographer, Children's photography | Nashville, Brentwood, Franklin, Spring Hill | Blog bio picture
  • the blog

    Welcome! This is the place where I share all my thoughts and feelings about my work. Grab a cup of joe, kick up your feet, and stay a while!

    The question I hear most is, "How did you start your photography business?"

    To be honest, I have no idea. I was going along in life, feeling pretty accomplished with my future laid out before me. I had my Associate's Degree in Early childhood Education, and was finishing my Bachelor's in Psychology. I had started a family and had a perfect life here in Nashville, Tennessee.

    Then one day, I fell in a hole. This hole is known as the world of photography. I had been dabbling in it a bit, but nothing serious. Now, I eat, breathe, and dream photography. It runs through my veins and is an extremely important part of my soul.

    Wait. It gets better. In January, 2010, just as I opened up my business for the first time, I discovered two amazing photographers: Tracy Raver and Baby As Art. There was a distinct moment when I discovered exactly what I was meant to do with my life. I was drawn into newborn photography by their incredible images. Seeing newborn photos pulls at me like nothing I have ever felt before. The only times I have ever felt more in love was when I married my husband and met my son.

    So here I am in 2011. Now I only photograph newborns and maternity and life is perfect. I feel truly blessed to be in this position.

    Enjoy the images. Let them make you laugh, bring you to tears, and make your heart sing. For that is what this job does for me.

Twin Babies: Grey & Avery | Nashville, Tennessee’s Premier Newborn Photographers

We have had a lot of twins in the studio this fall! 3 sets! and we have 3 sets in the spring all due one day apart! Insane and FUN!

Meet Grey and Avery. What a precious set of Christmas gifts! They drove all the way from Murfreesboro and I loved meeting them and their sweet parents.

Warmly,

Jennie & Heather

Sweet girl = lotsa pink! we had so much fun with her. She was squishy as ALL GET OUT and so fun to pose! I just love the pink tones and neutral tones in her images. We have some new props that were fun to use on her, including a gorgeous lacy bonnet and a vintage pram.

Warmly,

Jennie & Heather

Elliott was so squishy! And after some teeny premies, it was a nice change of pace. We loved working with him and using his chunk to show off in poses! What a dream!

Chloe, 7 days new | Nashville, Tennessee Premier Newborn Photography

Miss Chloe was quite the ham for our camera. Her momma said she would smile for a few shots, and boy did she! living in Nashville, I see many guitar requests, which is so fun. We love living in Music city (have you seen the new show? I LOVE it and watch it every week with a glass of red wine)…

Back to this beauty! love how she smiled for the guitar shot!

Xoxo,

Jennie & Heather.
