Sneak Peek x 5!

Last weekend was a BIG weekend for Cara Beth Photography! Normally when I head to Louisiana I am going to see my daddy, momma, MeMe, and other family members. This weekend, however, I warned my folks, "This is a business weekend." :) And it definitely was! But the good thing about this business is that it doesn't feel like work! Saturday morning started out early at 5:30 am. I woke up, got dressed, loaded my gear and drove 3.5 hours to Minden, La. My first shoot was in downtown Minden with my first official senior shoot, Chandler. She had several different outfit changes but this one was definitely my favorite. I kept telling her she could be a model! She was so natural and had her poses down! I hardly had to do a thing but click! :)

My next two shoots were family photo shoots from Christmas cards and were done at my parents home in their yard. The leaves had just changed colors the week before, my dad said, so we hit it just right! :) Here is little Dawson Day. Isn't he a doll? I've know Dawson's mom since we were HIS age. Hard to believe, huh!

This is Carson. I think he had just as much fun as I did playing in my parents' yard. :)

That was Saturday. After all three shoots, I put on my pjs, made myself a tall glass of chocolate milk and a gluten free pizza. I hopped on my parents' couch a immediately started downloading all the pictures. I couldn't wait to get started! I love my job!

On Sunday I had two family shoots in Shreveport/Bossier area. The first one was with a childhood friend at a historic site in downtown Benton, La. They brought their furry children along with them and we got several of the four of them. Here's one of my favorites of the pups, Cuddy and Bailey.

My last shoot of the weekend was at the gorgeous Norton Art Gallery in Shreveport. The outside garden area behind the gallery is absolutely gorgeous and all of the trees were at their peek! :) This was a fun family that I just met this day through a mutual friend. They all had so much fun together and laughed the whole time. :)

Hope you enjoyed a little sneak peek of my busy Louisiana weekend!
