Tammy Mitchell Photography bio picture

Thanks for stopping by!

I love to celebrate beautiful things!   My interests include anything crafty, colorful and fun!  I love to travel, cook, craft, design, create, entertain, decorate, sew..and the list goes on.  Stunning images inspire me and I hope I can share a few things here that will inspire you too!

I have always loved photographs.  My grandma has always taken a million pictures and it inspired me from a young age.  With my first 110 camera I captured fun memories of family vacations and everyday activities.  Since having kids my focus has turned to the art of the portrait.  In my eyes the "perfect" portrait doesn't mean a creaseless shirt and stiff poses, but instead a twinkle in the eye and a glimpse into the soul. 

My specialty is children.  I love to capture them in their natural element.  I want to capture who your child is at this moment.  The little noses, funny smiles and dirt covered faces that make them the person that they are right now. 

My approach is VERY relaxed...very "photo journalistic."  I'm not a girl that likes to pose.  My idea of a perfect shoot is to meet you somewhere fun and let your kids play and be themselves while I fade into the background.  I believe it's those moments that you truly want to remember.   Anyone can take a picture.  I want to capture a moment and tell a story.  

I'd LOVE to come play with your little ones.  Think of a place where they are happiest.  Disneyland? Chuck E Cheese?  Krispy Kreme?  Think outside the box.  Let's get together and let them explore, get dirty and have some fun!  Those WILL be your cherished memories!   

Everyday Life: I think I’ve created a monster..

One of the major hits this holiday season was a present from grandma…

I’m sure you can imagine why in my house this is a big deal.  Seeing as how the kids pretty much think that the camera is one of my extremities, they think it’s pretty cool to have their own.  ;)   Especially when you’re  a three year old girl and it’s pink and purple.  So, now I get followed around by someone toting a camera at all times and this is pretty much all i see anymore…

you know…first thing in the morning when i get out of bed, when I’m trying to take a shower…needless to say, we’ve had to lay down some ground rules with the camera. ;)

The funniest part of all of this came when she opened the thing and announced. 

“mom!  now I can take pictures just like you and start my very own blog!” :)

the idea of a blog from a three year old’s perspective has brought some laughs in this house.  especially with pictures that they have taken.  hmmm…something to think about in my spare time. :)

have a great weekend!

January 8, 2010 - 11:29 pm scrappysue - Tammy that is so adorable, can you imagine how cute it would be if she had her own little blog??!!! My daughter had a camera from Santa, she takes lots of photos. And ones of me when I think I look ugh, but she doesn't agree, bless her!

January 9, 2010 - 11:07 am Melanie but you can call me Mel! - Tammy that is too funny, cause my daughter got a purple camera too. She loves telling every one to "don't move" and "smile" when she snaps her pictures. Oh and she's become an ace at the delete button. I had to curb her excitement to make sure at least some of her early works survived. LOL Can't wait to see some examples of your little ones works.... ~m
