Maddy and Taylor, teen gals photo session

Today started out cloudy and foggy, so we did an indoor photo session at TE Photos Studio for Maddy and Taylor, two teenage friends.  They brought different outfits for different looks, and did great posing.  They were two perfect teen models!  Absolutely beautiful teenagers, both in looks and personality.  It was fun photographing them.  After a while, the weather cleared up, so we went to Campbell Station Park in Farragut for some outdooor photos, which they loved, especially on the bridge and “real” rocks in the creek.  Thanks, Maddy and Taylor, for visiting today for photos.

The blue sky seemless photography backdrop was perfect to contrast with Maddy and Taylor’s cute dresses.  This photo reminded me of something you might see in a fashion magazine or a teen magazine!

Here is a slightly different version of that pose, with different outfits, and outdoors at Campbell Station Park, on a rock in the creek.  These two teen girls did great, and enjoyed the outdoor photos once the weather cleared up for us.

This is the rock bench photography prop that is in my studio for when we can’t go to the park and use the “real” rocks in the creek.

Here is another fun photo of Maddy and Taylor at Campbell Station Park.  I loved the textures in the rocks and tree roots, a different setting for a photo under a tree.  I photographed it standing on the other side of the creek, at Campbell Station Park.

Happy One-Year Old Birthday Boy, Ben!

One Year Old Eating Birthday Cake

One Year Old Eating Birthday Cake

Happy Birthday, Ben!  This is sure to become the newest one-year old birthday “rave,” coming to TE Photos Studio for photos of your birthday baby eating their first birthday cake (or cupcake)!  This is so much fun!!!  We have a blast doing these birthday celebration pictures!  If your baby is about to turn one, you’ll want to call to set up an appointment for their pictures at my studio!  (Don’t try this at the mall places!)  

Emma and Ben

Emma and Ben

Emma came with Ben to the studio.  It is Emma’s birthday too, happy birthday, Emma!  Their birthdays are about two weeks apart, so they both got some birthday photos at TE Photos studio.  Emma is such a sweet “big sister” to Ben, you can tell she really enjoys her little brother.  Their mom and nana came, too, and enjoyed watching the photo-taking, and helped in getting them to both laugh and smile.  Everyone had fun.  That is the goal at my photography studio, to help it be a fun experience where the children love coming back, and they do!  The “Watch Baby Grow” special includes 4 separate photo sessions.  The babies change so much that first year, it is truly amazing and wonderful watching them grow.

Ben looking at teddy bear

Ben looking at teddy bear

This is our “watch baby grow” teddy bear.  Each session, we get a photo of the baby with the teddy bear to see the difference in the baby’s size relative to the teddy bear.  This is fun, when the baby is getting taller and almost as tall as the teddy bear.  Recently, we had the teddy bear pose in maternity photos … truly the first photo of the baby with the teddy bear!  We need to name the teddy bear, any suggestions, post a comment on this blog!  We would love to hear from you! Ben sees himself in mirror!

Ben, one year old baby boy, looking at reflection in mirror

This was fun, watching Ben see himself in the plexiglass mirror.  This mirror photo prop is a great photo prop, and has so many creative photo uses, it is sure to get a lot of use, for all ages!  We just keep getting more and more photo backdrops and props all the time.  It makes it interesting coming for photos at my photo studio, to see what we have today!  This is going to become one of my favorite props, it is so interesting, playing with the reflection photos in the mirror.  It is really tricky getting the right angles.  The plexiglass mirror is not black, but it reflects the black backdrop, making it look black.  I have to be careful on the photo angle, to not get the ceiling reflected in the mirror.  Maybe I should just paint the ceiling black???

Ben, one year old baby boy, climbing rock wall

Ben could climb!!!  He is getting so big and strong!  He really enjoyed this new grey rock bench/wall.  This rock bench photo prop is made of a heavy duty plastic, sturdy enough that I can even sit on it, but light enough to move it around the studio easily.  Won’t it be fun when Ben gets big enough to scoot around the rock bench prop?  Maybe he could look like Bam-Bam from the Flintstones, lifting the rock!  Emma enjoyed playing with the rock bench, too, and posed for some really cute photos on it.  Too many adorable pictures to post on the blog, to see all of them, go to www.tephotos.instaproofs.com

Here’s Emma with her perfect pose on our new grey rock bench photo prop.  She enjoyed this!  Looking forward to Emma coming back to TE Photos Studio for a ballet photo session.  That will be fun.  Thanks, Emma, Ben, and Mommy and Nana, for visiting TE Photos Studio, and choosing me to capture these precious birthday photos for your family.  These will be great pictures for on the new photo greeting cards that we now have.  For anyone wanting to know more about the amazing photo greeting cards, which you design on your computer with a special software program, and with the click of a button, the company prints, addresses, stamps, and mails off the cards for you, call or text me at (865)300-8801.  Tuesday evening is a special workshop for these photo greeting cards, let me know before then if you are interested and I will invite you as my guest, and give you directions to it (in Farragut).
