bellies and babies. {charlottesville creative lifestyle photography}

it’s a well-known fact in my circles that pregnancy and babies and breast feeding and all that stuff freaks me out. i know it’s new life and it’s beautiful and all that, but it’s just not my thing.  at all.

but all of that changes when it comes to people i love dearly. i can see the glow and i soak in the joy of the bulging bellies and tiny precious babies. so you will, without a doubt, see a few bellies and babies on this blog from time to time. and that’s mainly because i love these people, they have made me who i am, and i think that you all love bellies and babies too.

jenny is the one who gave me that chance to take a leap of faith and start this business. if you read my article “what it’s like to start a creative business” on leslie’s blog, then you know what i’m talking about.

after a lot of heartache and a lot of prayer, jenny and wilson were blessed with a new baby. and luckily, i was able to capture her before tyler was born, and i think she looks lovelier than ever.

photographe mariage vintage. {paris, france.}

 

C’est difficile de croire, mais mon voyage en europe est si proche! J’ai des clients en Espagne, en Hollande, et en Allemagne. Mais, bien sur- c’est la Paris magnifique que je manque.  Donc, je cherche des clients qui veulent des photos avec l’air vintage pour leur mariage, ou bien, les séances d’engagements (ou quelque chose d’autre). Je me trouve vraiment inspirée par le film “Midnight in Paris” et j’aimerais faire des photos aussi inspirées. Ou peut-etre, les photos inspirées par les années 20 ou 30. Si vous êtes intéressé, envoyez-moi un email et on peut discuter les détails! Je serai en France le 2 à 5 avril.

(excusez-moi si j’ai fait des erreurs!)

It’s hard to believe, but my trip to Europe is so close! I have clients in Spain, Holland, and in Germany. But, of course- it’s the magnificent Paris that I’m missing. So, I’m looking for clients who want some vintage-inspired photos for their wedding, or engagement photos (or whatever else).  I find myself really inspired by the movie “Midnight in Paris” and I would love to do a session also inspired by the film. Or maybe even a session inspired by the 20s or 30s. If you are interested, please send me an email and we can figure out the details! I’ll be in France from April 2nd through the 5th.

kasey & blake’s ethereal winter wedding . {texas vintage-inspired wedding photography}

you had to be there. you just had to be there to know how special this day was. everything about it shone- the people, the ceremony, the celebration.

the entire house and property that this took place on seemed to be teeming with life everywhere i looked, every time my camera shutter snapped open and shut.

it was almost like being in a dream, and it was all so inspiring.  i think the life and light fill up each and every photograph.

 

 

and if you missed kasey and blake’s autumn engagements or her beautiful vintage winter bridals, make sure to take a look. : )

Absolutely gorgeous photography and wedding! Wonderful artwork Tahni!

I don’t even know where to start! They are beautiful beyond words, truly. You captured the whole thing so perfectly. The atmospehere, the setting, the two of them, all of it. I got a little giddy seeing all the neat old pieces of furniture and things I’ve collected as background to your pictures :) . So much fun for me to be a part of their special day! Awesome job Tahni! Just Awesome!

This wedding is SO beautiful! You even made the pipes on the ceiling look beautiful! I’m excited for that since we’ll see some of the building structure in our venue too!
