Sweet Caroline!

Hello there! My apologies for not getting this post up last night. A mighty thunder & lightning storm came to our area and I was without electricity until 10pm. So, without further ado...I'd like to introduce this lovely family who welcomed a baby girl in early May. Sweet Caroline has the most beautiful blue eyes. There is no shortness on love in this family. The family dog, Duke, was even excited about me taking pictures ;-)  Ainsley, Chris, and big sister Taylor were all so helpful and patient with me as I made suggestions, rearranged some furniture (thanks Chris), and shot some pics. I hope you like your little sneak peek. Thank you for allowing me to bring my baby boy...and thank you for the sweet tea. Yummy!

Miss Molly Miller

Happy Sunday and Happy Father's Day! I am so excited to share this newborn shoot with you. Miss Molly Miller was such a sweet baby girl this afternoon. Her mom, Bethany, is a friend of mine from church. Sweet Molly is 8 days old and just a tiny little thing. So tiny in fact that I had to fold over the top of my cocoon so that I could see her little head peek out. She slept the whole time too! Newborns do the cutest things when they're sleeping and Molly was no exception. This session was such a joy for me to do. Thank you Bethany & Tim for inviting me to take Molly's pictures...and thanks for letting me bring little John. I hope you enjoy your sneak peek.

New Blog Design

Eek! I am so excited about my new beautiful logo and my new fancy blog design.
Thank you to my friends at CoffeeShop for all your creative goodness. I absolutely L-O-V-E my new look. You gals totally rock!

My Little One Month Baby Boy

Little is actually a bit of a sentiment. I took John to the Dr for his one month check-up and he is anything BUT little. Doc says that John sizes up and acts more like a 2 month old than a 1 month old. When I shared this info. with my hubby, his response was, "That's my boy!". We are so proud. Well, here are a couple of photos I took of John a couple of days ago.
I love you Little John!

Love,

Your Mama

Kaylen & Andrew are Engaged!

My little sister is ENGAGED! I met up with Kaylen & Andrew in Atlanta this weekend. The weather channel said we were in for a storm. Thankfully, the storm held off until after our photo shoot. Piedmont Park was a great place to take engagement pictures and this couple made the summer heat even hotter! We walked and took pictures all over the park while my other sister, Kendra followed and held my newborn. All of us had fun and laughed alot during our time together. Kaylen & Andrew, this time is so precious. Enjoy every minute. Hope you like the sneak peeks. Love you both!

Love & Blessings, Karrie

Karrie Drake Photography is moving to South Florida!

Hello All! I would like to take this time to pass along some exciting news. Karrie Drake Photography is moving to South Florida. Times and dates are yet to be determined. I will keep you all posted as the Lord reveals the next steps toward own journey toward Florida.

I never thought Beau & I would ever move back to Florida, but God has other plans. He made that very evident to us as we prayed and made this decision to move and begin our life as a family of 4 in South Florida. Please be in prayer for our family as we make arrangements to sell our house and go through this transition.

I am so very sad to say farewell to friends that I've met through church and through the beginnings of my photography business. Missing you already, but know that our door is open to visit. We are thrilled about what God has in store for us...and one of the great things about South Florida, there isn't just one beach :) I'm looking forward to exploring my new grounds for some awesome future photography sessions. Not to mention, getting back my sweet tan!

Love & Blessings,

Karrie

There are many changes and new adventures on the horizon for the Drake Family. I will keep you all posted. All I can say right now is that when you allow God control of your life, He certainly doesn't disappoint. Your life will be full and the ride will be thrilling. He wants to bless us abundantly; the Lord loves to see His children happy & thriving.
