My Favorite Photos from 2021 | Part One

2021 has been quite a year to say the least! Thank you to everyone who has been a part of this year for me both professionally and personally! I love all of the support!! What better way to remember 2021 than with a best of post!!

It was REALLY difficult to narrow down a Top 20 but I’ve managed and the selections surprised me at the end of the decision making as some of these shots aren’t necessary my best work but are photos that mean something more for one reason or another. I hope you enjoy my year in review and look forward to seeing what 2022 has to offer!

Personal Collection

I’ve started with my personal Top 10 because at the core my love for taking photos started at a personal level when I had Christopher. I read a lot of bios from other photographers and so many of them talk about how they waddled around in diapers with a camera but for me where I do remember always having a camera I don’t remember absolutely loving the art of photography. I remember thinking I was the coolest person alive when I got the Sony Cybershot that you could open by sliding down the front cover, you remember the one with Aerosmith in the commercial. If you don’t remember, trust me, SO cool!! I also know I can dig up more pictures from high school and college than should probably should be allowed because I have always taken pictures so I guess I have always loved photography, it’s just taken me a long time to make it something more!

Downtown Savannah Family Photos

These two photos are two of my favorites of Christopher and Ada from 2021! She’s such a boss with that stick, which was the only thing keeping her from crying, and he’s such a ham posing exactly how I ask him to pose!

Ada Smiles!!

Sometimes she doesn’t cry! That doesn’t mean she wasn’t crying at some point during my attempts to get her to look at the camera and smile though! LOL These are two of my favorite smiling Ada pictures from 2021!

Sunset Skiing 

This one could be technically better but I love it because Christopher is looking up at my dad like he admires him, which he does! I took this of my dad and Christopher this summer at Clark Hill. 

Father’s Day 2021

We did a quick Father’s Day session with Chris and the kids and this is the cutest photos of the lot. I love the lighting and how Christopher is causally leaning on Chris. It’s a framer for sure!

Tybee Island Family Photography

Two of my favorites this year come from the same session!! This beach session had some tears but was mostly successful in capturing great photos of the kids and of our family. I didn’t include a family picture because it’s good but this one of me and the kids wins out because me getting in front of the camera and getting such a good shot feels rare!

#adacried 

You didn’t think this list was going to wrap up without a single picture of Ada crying did you!? ????????

These are two of my favorite #adacried photos of 2021! There really were so many to choose from but these take the cake because I love the lighting, how Christopher is there for it, and how Ada is putting 1000% into the cry! She truly lives a “no photos please” life, too bad for her. Ha!
