I have been following your work for a while now. It’s just darn good stuff. And now, with the new kids site, I sit in complete awe. It’s spectacularly fabulous. Seriously.
Blessed Be

yeah! can’t wait to see it!
Had a lifestyle session with two very beautiful girls who became sisters by chance. It’s been almost 2 years since the last time I shot them and wow kids grow so fast! Now they have a new addition to the family. And this was the first time I shot their new baby sister, who got to steal plenty of camera time...

Thanks! I’m so excited about shooting kids FINALLY!
September 24, 2007 - 10:04 pm
Oh, I absolutely love the last image!!! She’s precious . . .
September 25, 2007 - 7:22 am
My fav. is the third to last. She is a doll. Oh and the colors on the first few are spot on. So vibrant. Love em!!
Julie’s uncle had this amazing property in Cade where we shot the engagements. A beautiful pond with ducks, a swamp, some bridges, a dock, a swing and a boat supplied us with the perfect backdrop for thier shoot. The weather was fantastic and the shoot was amazing! Enjoy!!

The first one should be HUGE on their wall.
September 24, 2007 - 9:23 pm
Girl, I agree!!! I spent a long time processing that one and I think it would make fantastic wall art. 
September 25, 2007 - 7:24 am
First one is fantastic. You might see if you can start bringing your clients there. lol
September 26, 2007 - 11:14 am
ok as sister of the groom, all i have to say is i was crying when i saw these! they are beautiful! omgosh! love them! so sweet yay for wedding in 45 days!!!
September 26, 2007 - 12:44 pm
these are amazingly beautiful! i love them all! you two together are gorgeous! I am obsessed with number two where Julie is laughing with her head back!
September 26, 2007 - 4:44 pm
Dawn, thank you for capturing “us” We love every image. The first image is beautiful and we are going to have it printed very large for our wall. (Thanks for the suggestion!) It is difficult to remember how dirty the boat was when looking at the images. It is also funny that as we balanced on the curved bridge that was ready to collapse, you actually captured a cute moment. I think it was then that I was telling Trenton not to make any sudden moves because my heels were sinking into the board. We had a lot of fun and can’t wait to see the rest of our photos. I also can’t wait for my bridal session!
September 27, 2007 - 2:35 pm
My favorite picture is the last one. Julie has that SPECIAL SMILE we always see when she talks about Trenton and he is responding to that SPECIAL SMILE. May that smile never fade from either of them.
November 6, 2007 - 3:16 pm
Julie you are just BEAUTIFUL. Both of you took some beautiful pictures..I CAN’T WAIT TO SEE YOU ON SATURDAY.. CONGRATS..
Love yall
Ruby
As far as I know, this is the only time I’ve been blog tagged….I haven’t been checking my blog stats as much lately. So from what I understand, I’m supposed to come up with 8 facts about myself that you may not know. And then I get to tag others who have to do the same….mmmmkay. ...

omg, you’re a WoW-er too? well I’m not, because I simply don’t have time for it, but my boyfriend is CONSTANTLY on it, and keeps trying to make me play! lol knitting is fun too.. too bad, I hardly do it anymore
September 20, 2007 - 1:49 pm
Susan – If only you knew…..I have 10 rotating characters that I play. My biggest is a lvl 48 shammy troll. She’d prolly be a 70 by now if I would have only played her, but I had just had to go and have one of every class…ha-ha. You should listen to your hubby, it’s actually pretty fun. I wish more girls would get into gaming. I actually have a former bride on the same server as me….everyone at her wedding was a WoW gamer…too cool.
September 20, 2007 - 3:53 pm
Well I would say that i didnt know these facts, but i knew them all. Hehe!! I think that your hats are super adorable and that you should sell lots of em. I crochet but just simple blankets. I havent figured out how to do the fancy stuff. My mother is a crochet prodigy. She can look at a blanket and duplicate it. Its sick. So maybe your a knitting prodigy Dawn.
September 21, 2007 - 4:35 pm
That’s so odd, because I just started knitting this summer too. I’ve been making blankets and scarves. I’m about to start learning how to make little baby hats. I just can’t wait! It’s so much fun, and easy to do
September 21, 2007 - 8:36 pm
HA…I have been tagged. Alright, Alright, I will come out of hiding and play along. Only for you my dear!!!! 8 things….hmmm. Can I put that I heart Dawn Earles 8 times-:)? Dang, you already know that. Okay, I will do it this week.
September 21, 2007 - 8:39 pm
LOL . . . you’re the 3rd person to tag me, so I finally got off my booty & played!!!
September 25, 2007 - 7:55 pm
Hey Chick! Thanks for the tag, I think! lol I’ve already been tagged once & so now I’ve been scheming up my 8. You’d think it wouldn’t be too hard, but to make them interesting, too? lol I still have two more before I post mine. Number 7 was very interesting. So sorry to hear about that. Definitely something I didn’t know about you yet! lol
And your new posts are awesome! LOVE the colors!
Finally, the hot, wet months are behind me and I can start shooting brides again. Hollie showed up looking FLAWLESS!! And she rocked her shoot!

My first visit in a while, I’m knocked down by the coolness. Please tell me you’re going to be in Tampa in January so we can meet up>

Beautiful…
September 20, 2007 - 8:00 am
I won’t be in Tampa because I booked that weekend for a wedding just before they announced the Tampa dates. I’m still very dissapointed over it too! Oh well, maybe 2009?
September 20, 2007 - 6:47 pm
Dawn, these are phenomenal!! That first one rocks my socks off! You are amazing!
September 20, 2007 - 7:52 pm
Thank you Rachel!
September 20, 2007 - 8:07 pm
Wow!!! She is beautiful!!! Amazing pictures! I want to be a bride again!
September 21, 2007 - 8:33 pm
What a way to start a season…she has lips/eyes/hair and oh, and body to kill for. Completely gorgoeus.
September 24, 2007 - 5:15 pm
Awesome! You know all the sweet spots outthere!
September 24, 2007 - 5:25 pm
Thanks! I’ve been shooting there for a long time now. I switch it up alot, have to or I’ll get bored, but I do have my fave spots!

CUTE CUTE CUTE!!! I LOVE the baby with that tongue!!! They are all so good…I have to admit I laughed out loud at my desk on that last one of us too! Morgan and those legs! I also kept picturing her walking down the sidewalk when you were telling them to walk “slow” and look at eachother! That was hilarious! Cant wait to see your site…awesome work!
September 17, 2007 - 11:35 am
Awesome and 3 and 4 are my absolute favorites Sha!! I want to do kids shots soooo bad!!!!
September 17, 2007 - 4:10 pm
Those are some super funky hats. They really make the images more lively. Lets see ill pick a fav. It was really hard but I choose # ……………16. I know I had to pick a hat one.
September 17, 2007 - 7:20 pm
# 16 is another one of my handmade hats! You like? I’m working on a line of knitted hats now…haha! My newest obsession.
September 17, 2007 - 10:17 pm
Oooohhhh!!! Maybe ill buy one from you!
September 17, 2007 - 10:23 pm
I just finished a newborn sized hat in that same yarn. You might like it. It’s soooooo soft. I need to get some tags made. I’m trying to decide on a name. I’ve got 2 good ones that I’m debating on that a friend of mine thought up for me.
September 17, 2007 - 11:44 pm
Awww newborn hats make me SMILE!!! lol
Let me know what name you choose.
September 20, 2007 - 1:44 pm

September 20, 2007 - 1:52 pm
Jon – my bad…..still one comment is not very much….
Kim’s girls were so much fun…I mean, they are all just too cute…just look at them!
September 20, 2007 - 8:12 pm
Dawn….just an idea….if you are going to sell your handmade hats then maybe you could sell them in my mother in laws new childrens store!!!
September 21, 2007 - 8:31 pm
Oh…MY…I LOVE those hats. Girl! Like you have time to make hats. I need to come figure out how you have balance. I feel like I edit all day and night. And when I am not editing I am shooting.
September 22, 2007 - 12:48 am
Julie, seriously, I’ve only made a few hats, and I did it during my vacation time. And not all the ones in the pics above are mine, some are store bought, only a few are mine (2nd, 4th and 5th hats are mine). And let me tell you, balance is not something I’ve been able to find in my life yet. But I keep trying. I really want to find time to shoot kids, and I really want to find time to make hats and sell them too. I also really want to be an astronaut but not all our dreams can come true I guess…
Another beautiful wedding with another beautiful couple! The ceremony was at the always amazing St John’s and the reception was at the Cajundome Convention Center.
Sweet Moments during the ceremony…..
Based on these two shots, you get to see just how silly they are!
Alright Michelle, what did they say to make you react like this?
The band was...

The band’s name is Krossfyre. They are amazing..
Everyone loves your pics!!
September 29, 2007 - 11:27 am
I just can’t stop looking at these pictures! You picked out some of our favorites…especially that really cute close-up of Robert and Michelle giggling on the altar. The landscaping view of the Cathedral ought to be on display in a museum downtown! I love it! We all had such a good time celebrating at the wedding–your beautiful work captured the whole story so well.
September 29, 2007 - 12:04 pm
So gload you love them! It was a wonderful wedding and I had a blast! It’s always great to have fun loving couples to work for. It’s inspiring!
