November 2009: A special time was enjoyed by several hundred friends and family members of Mr. Barney Walker in Fayetteville, GA on November 7, 2009 as they all celebrated his 80th birthday! I had the honor of photographing this very special event. Mr. Walker is well known for always remembering the name of everyone he meets and for his skills of building a successful business "Walker Concrete". He is a great man that has given to many in ways of knowledge, love and helping when someone is down. Happy Birthday Mr. B! Thank you for sharing with me.

December 2009: An important reason to capture the moment you have before you. This photo was made on Dec. 24th, Christmas Eve with my cell phone, as it was my own 2 children, Andy & Missy with my Grandma. On Jan. 3rd my Grandmother passed away, This is the very last photo made of her in her 98 years of life. I thank God I snapped it. The quality is not the best, but the memory and meaning are priceless. I thank God for my Grandma Liz and will miss her very much.

JANUARY 2010: A Brand New Year is here! I pray your year is filled with many blessings. My goal is to grow within my own self. This year will be filled with many special moments and I plan to capture each and every one of them. My Daughter is planning a June wedding! There are exciting things on the horizon for other members of our family as well. I want to continue building my company and growing with new clients and friends. Share the word with others about my work, give them my info and May God bless you in 2010!

FEBRUARY 2010: A special month of photography for me as I stayed very busy! I had two beautiful pageants to snap away at, a lot of beautiful girls and gowns. I also created a very specail "save the date" card and sent out for my very own daughter and her fiance'! I worked on my marketing for my company, trying to reach out to new clients and makeing things work to be more client user friendly to order their special portraits from my website! I have heard good remarks by those that are ordering and that pleases me so much. Watch for more new and special offers to be available soon from me to you!

MARCH 2010: A fun month with a lot of photography opportunities! A High School spring musical performance, Easter smiles with the Easter Bunny and many other special moments!

April & May 2010: Spring of 2010 has been very busy for Debbie with many photographic opportunities and new clients paths crossing in a wonderful way. Along with work, there have been some fun personal moments with Debbie's Daughter preparing for a June wedding! Showers, trips, receptions and family time have been at the top of Debbie's fun list! All is very exciting at the Clanton home. Along with the fun, Debbie photographed a beautiful 50 year reunion for the Class of 1960, Headland High School. The stories and smiles were priceless! Also, mixed into all of the events was a private family time with the loss of a cousin for Debbie which meant a trip to Missouri to drive her parents for the services in Marshall, MO. It was bittersweet as always to see other family and friends, yet bid a hard good-bye to Big John. Debbie also drove through two feet of water in Nashville on the day of the big flood on this trip. Although, she did not snap photo's which was the hardest part of the trip due to the rough weather conditions, she dedicated herself to the steering wheel, but her memory is embedded with the deep waters on the highway.

Fall - Winter 2010: I have had a tremendous time during the fall / winter sessions of 2010! Many families and special events were on my calendar and so many portraits were made. I had Bridal sessions that were so beautiful I simply could not take it all in without losing my breath. I'll be able to share the portraits after the weddings in order to keep the beautiful bride a secret until the big day! Family Portraits were a wonderful holiday gift for many and I loved snapping the smiles with my camera and now that moment will live forever in each of their homes! Here's to a wonderful 2011 as we move forward with the new year.
