Realizing A Dream!

Wow, I'm so blessed, and humbled! Here we are at the very beginning of the official Chabree` Grove Photography launch and I'm so very grateful.... deeply grateful for so many things! I'm grateful to have the opportunity to do something I love and offer that love to my family, friends and clients. I'm grateful for the wonderful support of so many great family & friends. I'm grateful for my camera- oh, how I love it! I'm grateful for all the help so many great people have offered along the way. I am simply grateful!

So here I am, nearly 28, and I'm starting again... not starting over, just starting again. For the last 10 years I've have the amazing opportunity to work alongside my mom in the family business of selling real estate. I love it... not "loved"... I LOVE it! And I'm not done with it. Each opportunity to make a difference in a clients life by assisting in the sale or purchase of a home fills my soul. I'm still selling real estate and you can count on me, and my mom Kim, for all of your real estate needs. Check us out at www.TheYardlayGroup.com

Nearly 2 years ago my husband, Ross, and I were blessed with a baby girl, Addilynn Jane. My passion for photography grew from they many photo sessions Addilynn had. I just love to capture the innocence of a tiny newborn baby. I love the great candid photos an active toddler can provide, and I love to compose a photo of a family they will cherish for a lifetime. More than anything, I love the reaction I get from my clients when they see their photographs... just another special moment that fills my soul.

So Chabree` Grove Photography is a little bit different that your traditional photographer. I offer relaxed, custom sessions to fit a clients needs. The base of all my sessions are an average of 2 hours of shooting time where I'll shoot hundreds of photos. After discarding the bad photos (no closed-eye photos here!) and editing the final picks, you'll end up with 25-50 (or more!) poses from your session. Your final product is all the edited photos given to you on a cd with generous copyrights so that you have the ability to print your photos into ANY size you want... not just the sizes a package offered. The end goal is a stress-free session offering more photos/poses/outfit changes/locations than a studio can offer, and you control how many photos you print.

Email me for more details or to plan your custom photo session! Fall sessions are booking fast!

Thank you... for your time, your support, your business, your friendship!

With Gratitude,
