Carletta Watkins Photography Blog

I have been really bad about posting images and while I was preparing Braxton’s images…..I came across his 8 month session and they are just so stinking cute that they deserve to be posted on the blog too! His mommy can just now….come to a session without tearing up. He was such a wonderful gift…..not that all babies aren’t but they had waited awhile for this little guy. I’ve know his mommy and daddy for a long time. I photographed their wedding years ago….they were one of my firsts….and I loved them then and still do! So here are a few from a previous session and then his 1st Birthday….oh, his momma made the cake….I did not get to take it but it smelled great…wait….I probably did lick some icing off my fingers.

Jack had such a good session. He was a trooper and any of you that know me….knows that means….I just keep shooting!
Really this family has been such a blessing to Tim and I…..first they were clients but now they are friends…..when they come…..it is hard to let them leave….honestly they are so much fun to talk to. I know I have said this before but I have been so blessed with wonderful clients/friends. I have wonderful wonderful friends and the Smith’s are one of those.
Speaking of being blessed….we had a photographer stop by today. As we were talking, this person leaned back in his chair, spread his arms and said…let me tell you whats been going on with me….and he continued to tell us a personal story that I wish I could share but it is his story…..but it was just what I needed to hear today….so often we get so busy that we forget that we can just call on God….he talked about the fishermen fishing all night and had nothing and God told them to fish on the other side…and they did it and were blessed….Thanks so much….friend.

Or should I say Lil Miss Flirty…..you see this little look?
Well, she was having some mommy detachment issues and woud not have very much to do with me…….
it kills me when they do that. Having her aunt and cousins did help alot. Thanks gals!!!!…. and then of all people….in walked Tim……and this little gal grinned and grinned and gave us some of the funniest little faces….
I swear she was flirting.
Tim wants to know why they do that when they are little and never do it again….guess I need to steal this look from Brooke and use it sometimes. LOL.

Anyway…..her session was super sweet and we got some awesome shots…..Today she and her momma came to view the rest and place their order.
So I let Leah do all the “work work” so I could play with Brooke so she would be Happy with me!…all was going well…..but then….here come Tim and again….she started that grinning…
so she likes me but not as much as Tim right now!
