Mooresville, Alabama

Mooresville, Alabama is the oldest incorporated town in Alabama. The town is located less than a mile off of I 565, near Huntsville, Alabama. It still appears as it did in the 19th century. Wikipedia describes it as picturesque of the 19th century. It is one of my favorite spots to visit. It is tiny, just a few streets and you've seen the entire town and it's few beautiful home; however, the preservation of history is like none other. According to Wikipedia the post office is the oldest still in operation in the state and features call boxes built prior to the American Civil War.

I met my brother and sister-in-law this past week and was able to take some amazing pictures of my nieces, Allyssa 4, Hailey 3 and new baby nephew Kyson, who is only 4 weeks old. It is by far one of the greatest spots for photography. The pictures above give you a glimpse of this lovely little Southern town.

Light Mojo by Dave Rice

Phenomenal close-up techniques I had never seen before!

I have to give a shout out to this wonderfully patient and beautiful model, Kate.  She sat in the same spot for 4 hours--God bless!

I was fortunate to attend a Light Mojo class, by Dave Rice; it was phenomenal! It was my first time to get to work, hands-on in a studio setting. The class was very enlightening and I was able to meet and work with other great area photographers.

This technique was done to show how to use accent lighting; I thought it was cool enough to share!
