I think it's kind of funny that my first two sessions for this month of January had individuals with names that begin with J. Just a tiny observation.


Last fall, my schedule just threw me in for a major spin and my time management was just out of whack so I stopped posting "previews" of my latest sessions to satisfy the clients just a tad bit while they wait for the rest fo their photos. Of course, also for you guys to enjoy and see how my work continues to expand and progress.
So.... here goes - let's see if I can manage to keep up with myself this year!
Here's Jenny's Abby! I did her one year old photos last year and yesterday it was already time to do her two year old photos. Time just flies by too fast!

Here's a preview shot of Jackson from Australia. He came over with his grandmother, Mrs. Deanie (who is close friends with my parenys). I had not seen him in AGES! He has grown into such a handsome man (he's 15) and I definitely think he could do some modeling as he gets a bit older! He looks like Jill!

Back in August, Kenny asked me to come to New Orleans to help him set up a portfolio so on this VERY rainy day - we managed to get some really awesome images. We spent all afternoon into the darkness shooting and shooting - this was the same night Sarah and I checked into the W Hotel for a weekend in New Orleans.
Thanks Kenny, for the business!

Before we did the photo session in LA this past July, he had told me he got engaged to the gorgeous Lisa from Florida so of course, for him helping me out with the spread again.... I wanted to do them a fun favor and do some engagement/hot modeling shots for them. I'm very excited for them.
I love love their chemistry. It's so apparent they're in some serious love.

Be sure to check out my latest spread up at www.fantasticsmag.com with my fun male model friend in Los Angeles, Jared Edwards. We had a ball shooting it (and his fiancee, Lisa, is the lovely lady you see in a few photos).

I know being solo with my business is a bit nuts sometimes. I like the profit all to myself and it's double/triple the work....... that's how it'll stay for now at least as my business still continues to grow. People are always telling me I need to increase my price because it would be half the shoots, and more $ for less "no life for Tate". I like my prices they way they are now. I know it gets me a lot of work being on the cheaper side, and one day - I will go up. Maybe when we have our own kids, I'll up the prices - but for now - I'm sticking with what makes me good money.
Of course, being solo - I can't keep up with myself! I've said this numerous times but thank you so much for your patience to all clients. Some are more anxious, some are laidback, and vice versa but I know all WANT to see their photos. My summer weddings are killing me so that's one reason I'm still stuck at mid/end of July - so I just knew I had to go ahead and do a quick preview for those August sessions that I hadn't done yet!
Here you go - proof I'm not just sitting on my ass doing nothing all day. Thank you again for all the business! I am loving it and I hope you are too!

Jackson, Jake in Aussie land, is a very good looking young man, especially being just 15. He is 6'2", plays wide receiver, but plans on trying out for quarterback next season. He lives near Melbourne. His dad is Jason Gautreaux from St. Amant. He is a smart young man and interesting to talk with... his accent' is great.
