Little "L" is One!!!

2012-03-05T19:13:00.005-08:00

What an inquisitive little man! He was much less concerned with his photoshoot than trying to find a gadget to play with (or cake to eat!). Sounds like his poor Daddy - who was tricked into coming and having his photo taken ;) All of that said and done, we had a great time, wore ourselves out and let "L"s vibrant one-year-old personality shine!

The P-Man Turns 2!

2012-02-01T18:19:00.000-08:00

I sure love looking at my children...I hope you do too ;). At two, this little man is obsessed with trains - what better place to photograph him than on a "real train track!"

Baby L!

2012-01-02T18:36:00.001-08:00

I'm so in love with this baby girl! Maybe because she's mine... :)

Expanding the "C" Fam - Round 2!

2011-11-23T20:55:00.001-08:00

Remember this gorgeous couple, expecting their first little baby girl! Well, last weekend it was time for round 2 of their maternity shoot! These two make portrait photography EASY! Good luck C and J!!! It's been wonderful working and "photoshoot swapping" with you!

The C Family

2011-11-22T19:01:00.001-08:00

This family knows how to have a good time! I'm pretty sure they giggled and laughed for our entire shoot! We had a great time, between 3 rambunctious boys, 1 adorable little girl and 2 laid back parents. It was definitely a fun start to my day!

Little E - 2 Weeks New!

2011-11-19T17:37:00.000-08:00

This family is a good friend of mine and I jumped at the chance to take photos of their new addition! Little E was absolutely a pro - She smiled, she slept, she stared wide-eyed and all with no fussing! She's not only one of the most gorgeous newborns I've ever seen, but also one of the easiest to work with! Congrats A and D!!!

The "L" Family

2011-11-05T18:47:00.001-07:00

Remember these two from a maternity shoot earilier in the year? Well, they have... since welcomed their handsome bundle of joy to the world! We got together with them and her parents for a family photoshoot on a gorgeous day in Sevierville, TN. On days like that and with families like them there is no denying Eastern Tennessee is as close to Heaven as we can get!

The "S" Family

2011-11-01T18:29:00.000-07:00

What a sweet family! We met on a beautiful October evening, with the leaves turning and the smell of fall in the air! The children were so well behaved and absolutely charming - even the baby of the clan was a natural in front of the camera. I couldn't get him to stop smiling!

The "C" Family - Round 1!

2011-10-30T17:28:00.001-07:00

What a handsome family!!! I was lucky enough to meet and befriend Julie at a Lindsay Jane Studios photography workshop. We wound up being pregnant at the same time, so what better way to celebrate that than to share our passions and swap maternity photography sessions! Here is round 1 for her and her hubby. Expect more as she "fills" out :). They're going to be such a beautiful family!

Some Commercial Work

2011-10-16T17:17:00.000-07:00

In the past two to three weeks, I had been asked to do some commercial photography for a very enterprising family!

The first set is a group of photos shot to advertise a new product being added to The Etiquette Factory's line up. Monica Irvine has created a fantastic etiquette curriculum for home school students, ages pre-k through the first year of college. In all actuality, we could ALL benefit from her lessons! Her latest product line involves tea parties for young ladies that not only teaches etiquette but allows a creative and delicious outlet for learning it!

The second shoot was for her husband, Charles', restaurant Sullivan's. They have three locations, one in Maryville and two in Knoxville. Let me tell you, the food is DELICIOUS! My husband and I can't get enough and the portions are just right! The restaurants have a great atmosphere and feature banquet rooms for your special occasions.

A Family Wedding!

2011-08-29T17:48:00.000-07:00

My sister in law got married! I had the opportunity to fly out to the Salt Lake City, UT area to take photos of her exciting day! I must admit, it was a photoshoot quite unlike any I've done before - between apartment sewers backing up, multiple wedding parties coming out of the temple one after another, and reception schedules, we had very little time to get portratis of the beaming couple. However, I hope I captured and am able to showcase T & T's excitement and love. Congrats you two!!!

T & T: Expecting!!!

2011-08-27T19:55:00.000-07:00

Are these two, almost three, a good looking group, or what??? Not only are they photogenic, they were also so easy to work with! This poor girl braved the heat, many many weeks pregnant, and got some great shots they'll be able to show their pink bundle of joy in October! Good luck T & T!

The Expanded H Family!

2011-08-17T19:25:00.001-07:00

Little M is making her debut! At only 5 days old, Mom and baby were ready for their cameo in the spotlight - Mom bounced back beautifully and baby M couldn't be more lovely.

Nashville Dates Change

2011-08-13T17:02:00.000-07:00

Until further notice, I will no longer be scheduling photoshoots in Nashville. Those photoshoots already booked will be honored, however. I apologize for the inconvenience.

A Couple Session: The 'P's

2011-07-23T18:01:00.000-07:00

What an awesome couple! They went with the flow of everything, were very understanding of a last minute time change, and were just the friendliest people ever! I felt like I had known these two forever by the time we were finished with our shoot! We definitely had a great time and we got the pictures prove it!

The 'V' Family

2011-07-18T16:53:00.000-07:00

I love this family! They are good friends and I've been so lucky to document their engagement, wedding and now growing family. We met up at a beautiful location in Franklin that perfectly captured their laid-back, yet fun loving, sweet personalities. I always enjoy spending time with them and this time was no exception!

The H Family - Expecting #2!

2011-06-30T16:08:00.000-07:00

Rain or shine, we were going to get these pictures! Our first attempt was tornadoed out, and our second attempt was interrupted by rain! However, despite the wet grass and abundance of chiggers we managed to capture some sweet shots of this gorgeous family, her tummy full of a sweet little girl and her little toddler full of sweet candid moments! Good luck H family - can't wait to meet your new addition!!!

Little E is One!

2011-06-20T18:40:00.000-07:00

Little E is such a CUTIE!!! I have to admit, I'm partial to her, with her being a neighbor and all, but can you deny just how adorable she is? It took a little warming up to the camera but once we got her going, she was unstoppable with the giggles and smiles! Happy 1st Birthday, E!

Newborn: E

2011-06-01T13:33:00.000-07:00

I love this family! Two years ago, I was able to photograph the G Family's first newborn. Not only were they first time parents, but that was my first time experimenting with an indoor "studio" set-up. They were so patient with me and we had so much fun, despite some surprises from their son! This time around, we all knew what to expect, making the shoot *nearly* snafoo free! Little E is precious and we really wore her out - her older brother wouldn't allow me to take any of the quiet, sleepy newborn pics, but E gave me the privilege at the end ;). Thank you, G Family, for letting me photograph such a short and special time of your children's lives!

H - A Celebration!

2011-05-24T19:25:00.000-07:00

H, one of my giveaway winners, had a very exciting reason to have a photoshoot - in celebration of losing 101 pounds! Amazing! This woman is incredible and we had so much fun during her shoot, especially when she would whip out her "sassy" faces! We even got a photo with her BFF :). It was such a fun and celebratory time! Way to go, H!

A Baby for the "L" Family!

2011-05-11T18:59:00.000-07:00

This sweet pair will be welcoming their first little one in just a few weeks!!! Doesn't she look great!? These two were so eager to get their maternity photos taken that they braved the chilly air, keeping their jackets near-by. I adored watching these two interact and the look of sheer excitement and contentment on their faces as they contemplated their little one. LOVED IT!

Finally!

2011-05-08T19:07:00.000-07:00

I was so lucky to be able to participate in a very special day for a family in middle Tennessee - the finalization of the adoption of their baby girl! It was such a fun afternoon. I was able to "document" the day for their growing little family and I'm so grateful they allowed me to share in such a joyful moment in their lives!

B - Class of 2012 Senior Ambassador

2011-04-28T09:20:00.000-07:00

An aspiring film maker, B has an eye for art and came well prepared for any situation. When I told him he could bring as many changes of clothes as he wanted and whatever props that make him who he is, he took me seriously! Seven wardrobe changes later, we got some amazing shots! This was definitely a very fun shoot!

Winners!

2011-04-08T07:22:00.000-07:00

That's right, winners plural! There was such a good turnout that I decided to draw two names!

The winners are...

Holly Bryson & Heather Law!!!

Congrats, ladies!

Thank you to everyone who entered - you will all be receiving a special email from me soon ;)

J - Class of 2012 Senior Ambassador

2011-04-05T20:34:00.000-07:00

I had a blast with J on a bright, sunny, WINDY spring day. We captured two sides of her - the sweet dainty J and the J with a dark side (which is funny because I'm pretty sure she doesn't actually have a dark side - she's so sweet!). She sat in water, was blinded by the sun, sat on a greasy railroad track and endured whistles from passers-by all in the name of art ;)

R - Class of 2012 Senior Ambassador

2011-03-25T20:09:00.000-07:00

Oh, this girl! She is spunk personified! Her wild spirit can't be contained and you're a better person for encountering it. She was willing to go anywhere, do anything, be serious, be crazy, be sweet - you name it, she hit it!

C - Class of 2011

2011-03-25T20:00:00.000-07:00

Soft-spoken, but with a hidden mischievous side, "C" took a little while to warm up. I don't think having pictures taken of himself was number one on his list of favorite things to do! However, once we got going, that charming smile made itself known and those mischievous eyes let the camera know just who "C" was!

My First Giveaway!!!

2011-03-23T18:07:00.000-07:00

N & H

2011-03-04T16:56:00.001-08:00

I found some free time to go back and work on some more photos from my model shoot with Lindsay Jane Studios. Enjoy!

E - Class of 2011

2011-02-16T18:27:00.001-08:00

I love this girl. She absolutely rocked the camera. She blew me off my feet too - I know her as a very outgoing girl who is always cracking a joke or cracking up, and then she whips out this serious, model face from no where at our photoshoot! Loved it! Beautiful!

C & J

2011-01-30T19:05:00.001-08:00

What a beautiful afternoon and what a fun couple!!! These two were more than willing to go wherever I wanted them to and do whatever I wanted them to! And the funniest part was that C told me before the photoshoot, "I have to warn you, I'm not photogenic at all." Um...I beg to differ! You're gorgeous, girl!

Nashville Dates!

2011-01-22T16:46:00.000-08:00

Last year was a good year for me. I was able to do exactly what I wanted to do - be a stay at home mom, with a photography side job. However, the side job just got me hungry for more! Since I had so many customers calling from the Nashville area, I just figured I would go ahead and build it into my schedule.

So, here you have it - Nashville dates! If any of you in the Nashville area would like to set up a photoshoot for any of the days below, email me: brianna@fisherfotography.com. I look forward to hearing from you!!!

"P" Turns One!!!

2011-01-05T20:01:00.001-08:00

As soon as the snow melted after Christmas, we stole this little man out into the chilly air to get some quick shots for his first birthday. He was quite the trooper and so easy on the camera's eye - just like his Dad!

The "A" Family

2011-01-04T11:42:00.001-08:00

I couldn't get enough of this family. Reason #1: They are good friends who I miss so much! Reason #2: Do you see how photogenic they are!? We had a great time wandering around downtown Franklin and found some beautiful places for photos. The two girls were chock full of energy, which made for great shots. Amazingly, mom and dad had just as much energy. What an incredible and beautiful family!

The "B" Family

2010-12-31T06:59:00.003-08:00

Getting all the children together one last time before one leaves for a mission and the other two leave town left us with one date to take photos: Christmas Eve. This handsome family pulled together during a very small window of free time to take family portraits and I'm so glad I got to be a part of it. Are they beautiful, or what?

The "B" Family

2010-12-29T11:41:00.000-08:00

I must admit - this shoot was tricky to get scheduled! Between the rain, the short amount of time the family would be together and my holiday shooting schedule, I didn't know if we would be able to pull it off. Luckily, we did! We found a great building on UT's campus that provided shelter from the rain the one day we could all coordinate schedules. I'm glad it worked out, because I had a blast shooting this family!

Bootcamp Results

2010-12-06T08:14:00.000-08:00

Last Thursday, Friday and Saturday, I was lucky enough to be able to attend a photography "bootcamp" put on by Lindsay Jane Studios. Lindsay is a FANTASTIC photographer and I jumped at the chance to learn from her. We spent our days learning the best methods of posing and the best ways to capture the light that makes the models shine. I have lots of practice I need to do to make it to her level, but I'm so excited to know how to reach my potential now! Here are some of my favorite images from our model shoot. I think they turned out pretty well ;).

The "C" Family

2010-11-29T16:41:00.001-08:00

On a brisk, bright November morning, the "C" family dropped their scarves and coats to get some awesome photographs! The Cove's perfect scenery, the family's bright smiles and the good attitudes of all involved just made for a great shoot!

J & R - Married!!!

2010-11-24T10:43:00.000-08:00

Remember these two? Their infectious love, smiles and giggles? Well, they were every bit of that on their wedding day! I feel so blessed to have been a part of their big day. These two are so in love. On their wedding day, they didn't really care about anything but being together. When I tried to steal R away to get more bridal shots, she brought me in close and said, "Brianna, all I care about you've already photographed. All I really want are pictures of us together." AWWWW!!!! I wish these two the VERY best!

The "J" Family

2010-11-16T19:58:00.000-08:00

What a fun photoshoot!!! The boys kept me on my toes for sure, and the entire family is so photogenic! I loved every minute of this photoshoot, especially seeing old friends in my old stomping grounds. I know there are a lot of pictures, but I couldn't narrow it down!!!

My Family Photos

2010-11-12T18:42:00.001-08:00

I decided it was time for my own family pictures again. I used to take photos of my husband and myself easily, but then baby came along and, well, it's not so easy anymore! So I called up and "hired" two high school girls I know as my photographers! I set up the shots and set up the camera, leaving one girl to be my "shutterbug" and the other to be the "prop-girl." All in all, I think it was a success!

And Now for Something Completely Different...

2010-11-05T18:19:00.000-07:00

A couple of weekends ago, I was asked to do something unlike anything I've ever done before: stand in one spot and just take pictures of good friends doing silly things in front of hay bales. My church sponsored a Fall Festival and simply wanted me to take pictures of whoever wanted pictures. I must say, I had a blast doing it. Here are a few of my favorites.

In the 'Boro...

2010-11-01T11:22:00.000-07:00

I will be in Murfreesboro Nov. 13th doing a photoshoot - if you're in that area and would like to set up an appt, email me: brianna@fisherfotography.com !

Seniors: "D"

2010-10-21T20:22:00.000-07:00

What a FUN kid. We had a blast. I had no idea what look would come across his face next. He kept us all laughing and I was sad to see the shoot end!

(no, I did not edit the blues in this picture - those are his eyes!)

A Fall Floral Arrangement

2010-10-15T18:17:00.000-07:00

I love fall. I love flowers. I love flowers in the fall. Enjoy.

Celebrating Their Engagement: R & J

2010-09-28T18:03:00.000-07:00

I feel so lucky to have taken the photos of one of my favorite people in the world and her fiance, who I'm sure will prove to be equally as wonderful once I get to know him better! Their laughter, their smiles, and their love was so infectious. They just couldn't keep their hands to themselves and those pearly whites were on permanent display. I definitely count this as one of my favorite photo shoots - fitting, coming from one of my favorite people! I wish these two the absolute best in marriage!

FISHER FOTOGRAPHY HAS A WEBSITE!!!!!

Oh this makes me so happy, despite the struggle it was to get it up and running! I even designed it myself (it's nothing tricky, but I think it will do the trick!) ;). Go visit and if you find typos or broken links, make sure to let me know!!!!

The "G" Family

2010-08-05T06:19:00.001-07:00

What a shoot! This little man was definitely not in the mood to have his picture taken, which could have been disastrous. Lucky for us, he's very happy just doing his own thing, which made for some great photos. All in all, this family is very personable and very photogenic, which made for a fantastic day!

Photo Restoration

2009-10-30T06:48:00.000-07:00

I'm tacking on a side business to my side business! Now, Fisher Fotography also does photo restoration!

This is for you folks who have an old family photo that needs some sprucing up or for those of you who accidentally rip a picture. The only rules are these:

1. If the photo is professionally done (a portrait), it must have been taken in 1923 or earlier in order for me to restore and reprint it because of copyright laws. If your photo is younger than that, you will need to get written consent for restoration and reprinting from the photographer/studio where the photo was originally taken.

2. Candid snapshots from any year, past or present, can be restored and reprinted with no repercussions.

This tool is especially useful for family history buffs, but accidents happen to anyone! Here are some examples:

Pricing

Restoration Process: $25

2009-08-20T09:32:00.000-07:00

J & S

2009-08-03T10:58:00.001-07:00
