Funny Story. I Really Didn’t Have a Clue!

I am so excited about some upcoming Tina Time Mentoring Sessions!
And my next 3 are all with ladies who are just starting out with photography.  How EXCITING! I am thrilled to get to help them begin their photography journey.    All 3 of the women are married, and 2 have young children.
I’d like to [...]

Greenville Spring Training Series. Weekend 1.

Cycling is a HUGE part of my family’s life.  Thomas, now 16, has been racing since he was 10.  I used to photograph cycling for a business, but back then, I had a much larger lens than I have now.  Now that I’m shooting mostly lifestyle photography, I only have a little portrait lens.  It [...]

Sweet Love. Valentines From Pastimes.

A couple days ago, I headed out with Deidre McIntyre for a little Valentine Shoot with her adorable daughters, along with my youngest son, Houston.  I first met Deidre when I photographed her family years ago.  After a few photo shoots, Deidre felt called to photography, as well.  And soon after, I had my very [...]

Minolta. Out On the Water.

I could photograph her all day…

I love these…

And here’s a ‘behind the scenes’ look at Minolta trying to row away from the shore.  Hee hee.  We didn’t have any oars.

Minolta, I had such a wonderful time hanging out with you.   We REALLY must do this again sometime!

The LOVELY Minolta. Part One of Our Shoot.

Last weekend, I headed out with the LOVELY Minolta for a few shots.  It was my first time meeting Minolta.  She’s ADORABLE + sweet + silly + well…  a real hoot to work with!  I had so much fun + I laughed until my belly hurt!  Here’s Minolta with her baby…  her guitar.

I couldn’t have been more pleased with the work [...]
