One of my favorite parts of a photo session is helping you plan your outfits. I’ve put together a few inspiration boards to hopefully help make planning what to wear for Fall family photos less stressful for you. Here in Nashville, our Fall season can range anywhere from freezing temps to an 90 degree day. […]

I started KLP as an official photography business almost 10 years ago, in 2013. My clients booked me through simple emails, we agreed on a date, and they would snail mail a check to me for their deposit (which if I recall correctly, was $50 to reserve a date). I burned those edited images onto […]

With its “Secret Garden” […]

When planning this session, this momma wanted to use Harlinsdale Farm in Franklin, TN for their Nashville family photos. They frequent this spot as a family for picnics and play and she hoped the familiarity of it would help her older children enjoy the session.

In-Home Newborn Photos I’m so glad that lifestyle newborn photography became a thing – the trend of in-home newborn photos began in the early 2000’s and took off like wildfire (with good reason). While I love traditional studio photography and do offer studio newborn session as well, there’s just nothing quite like intimacy and familiarity […]
