"R" TWINS ARE 1: NASHVILLE PORTRAIT PHOTOGRAPHER

I can't believe the "R" twins are 1!  I feel like we just did their 6 month pictures.  One thing I love about my job is getting to be part of my amazing client's lives.  I have been photographing the "R" family since they were expecting these sweet babies.  Thank you so much "R" family for allowing me to be part of your lives as well as your kid's lives!

"J" NEWBORN TWINS: NASHVILLE PORTRAIT PHOTOGRAPHER

I was so excited to meet these two little guys.  I just love their mom "S." Her boys are definitely destined to be heart breakers with such a beautiful momma!  I was in baby heaven when we had their newborn session.  There is just something about holding a sweet little baby.  My baby days are over, but at least I get to photograph newborns.  I even got to help feed the boys.  Thank you so much "J" family for letting me photograph your two bundles of joy!

"S" FAMILY: MEMPHIS PORTRAIT PHOTOGRAPHER

On our Thanksgiving trip this year, I decided not to work while we were there, but as I know me, I couldn't do that.  So, I decided to take some pics of sweet "J."  You may remember him from his newborn pics with that cute family chin dimple.  Here he is at about 7 months.  Couldn't you just eat him up?!

SANTA PHOTOS: NASHVILLE PORTRAIT PHOTOGRAPHER

2011 was a year filled with a lot of firsts for Heart of Nicole Photography.  Not only did I have my first ever "Fall Mini Sessions," but I also did "Breakfast with Santa Photos" at one of my absolute favorite stores, JJ Ashley's furniture.  A big Thank You to my sweet friends "M" and "L" for letting me use their store to take Santa Photos!  Here are a few photos from that day...

Playing Catch Up... and the "W" FAMILY: NASHVILLE PORTRAIT PHOTOGRAPHER

I know I haven't posted on the blog in a long time, but as part of my New Year's Resolution, I am going to do a better job in 2012.  So here are a few long overdue posts...  To start 2011 was Heart of Nicole Photography's first time to do Fall Mini Sessions.  On a beautiful Saturday morning I met up the "W" family for some cute portraits.  Here are few from their session.

Tell it Tuesday

Hello blog readers!!  I hope your week has started off well!!  Here is another tell it Tuesday post.  This post is going to be like "Oprah's favorite things," only it's "Nicole's favorite things." Sorry but you will not be receiving these items!! ;0)

1. The Mulled Cider candles from Walmart. Let's just say I don't love Walmart, but I tolerate it upon occasion.  Soap box time: They never have any check out lanes open and there are about 50 lanes in the store.  Also they seem to rearrange their store every week.  I know it's a marketing technique, but seriously I just want to run in and run out!!  OK I am off the Walmart soap box now.

2.  The Cricut Cutting Machine.  I love this machine!!  I have been able to decorate all kinds of things with vinyl lettering, make flag banners, make letters for posters, decorations for parties, etc.....  The list could go on and on!!

3.  All things Owls.  I have a little obsession going on right now with owl things.  I find myself buying anything with cute owls on them.  Like owl pajamas, owl hats and mittens, owl stuffed animals, owl fabric, owl ribbon, etc....  One of my girl's birthday parties was done with an owl theme, and I searched high and low for owl themed things and found a few things, but as Murphy's Law would have it, now that the party has been over a few months everywhere I go, there is something owl themed.  Go figure!!

4.  Lamps.  Not really any in particular or any brand, just lamps in general.  Odd I know ;0)

5.  Viccolo Pizza Crust.  We have been trying to make our own pizzas instead of getting them delivered and I must say we make pizza with this crust once or twice a week.  You can buy this crust in the frozen food section at Whole Foods.  You might be able to get it other places, but this is the only place I have found it so far.  It is some of the best crust I have tasted. 

6.  Mahalo Candy Bars.  I have a slight dairy allergy so you can image my excitement to find this little goody!  It is dairy free!!  Our favorite is the chocolate with coconut and almonds.  Tastes like and almond joy but better. 

7.  Bravo TV Network.  Lately, my DVR seems to have mostly shows taping from this channel.  I don't know why but I just love Bravo! 

I hope you have enjoyed my Tell it Tuesday post.  Have a fantastic week and don't forget to check out the details on my fall mini sessions!!  I am now booking time slots, so book yours today!
