Sweet 16 Portrait Session- Chattanooga Portrait Photographer
A Sweet 16 Photo Shoot at our Chattanooga studio!
Jennifer has known Alexa since she was a little girl in school with Jen’s oldest son… and now she is a beautiful young woman! Very poised but also very easygoing, we had a blast shooting this Sweet 16 portrait session. A photoshoot that highlights her soft beauty and her fun loving side! We hope you love your photos Alexa and Happy Birthday!
Rustic Sunset Maternity Session- Chattanooga Maternity Photographer
Rustic Sunset Maternity Session
When clients book their maternity session, we always ask what their vision for their final portraits are. My favorite is when I hear glowy, sunset and rustic! One of our favorite fields to shoot in has the most perfect sunset light and tree line. You move one way it’s trees, you move another and it’s a golden field. This gorgeous couple welcomed their newborn very soon after this session and we wish them much love and many blessings! Thank you for choosing us to capture your maternity session!
Newborn Studio Session- Chattanooga
A perfect cozy session for a tiny little one…
Little miss decided to come a little early and was sooooo tiny! We loved snuggling on her and she had such a cute session!
Saturdays through December 15th!
Visit St Nick now through December 15th!
Every Saturday through December 15th, Santa is visiting Image Photography’s Hixson studio. The kids get to enjoy a personalized one on one experience with St. Nick, enjoy fun activities and take homes, and read their favorite story with him! It’s a tradition that allows Christmas magic to continue in this crazy world- so come experience the magical fun at Image!
Santa is Coming to Town!
Santa Studio Mini Sessions are in full swing through mid- December!
All the kids love seeing this jolly elf and getting their one on one time with him. We love having a visit from the big guy!
Chattanooga Newborn Studio Session
Some photographers secretly cringe when parents show up with a must have newborn pose list. Us, on the other hand, welcome the challenge to create an newborn portrait that is meaningful to your family. Mom and dad really wanted to showcase little brother’s love of cars and trains. They bought this Tonka dump truck for a newborn pose and big brother loved the truck so much it became his lol. Gotta love toddlers!
Chattanooga Outdoor Pumpkin Patch Mini Session
Pumpkin Patch minis- Fall 2019
One of our favorite mini sessions all year is our Pumpkin Patch Minis. It’s the epitome of fall- pumpkins, crisp air and apple cider. This little guy’s crystal blue eyes are gorgeous against the dark fall colors!
Chattanooga Halloween Cake Smash Session
When mom told us she wanted to do a Halloween Cake Smash session for this baby girl’s first birthday, we were excited. Cake Smash sessions are our fave! Cupcake Kitchen did an amazing job on the cake and this little girl was ready to smash and eat some cake! Happy Birthday, Boo-tiful!
