Kelly's Cottage Hair Salon



























I had a wonderful opportunity to photograph the Shop and beautiful ladies that work at Kelly's Cottage Hair Salon. We had a lot of fun during this session. Kelly's Cottage is located at the historic cottages of Lake Ella. When you walk in you quickly fall in love with the shabby chic decor, by the owner Kelly, and feel comfortable enough to relax and enjoy being pampered. There are 8 highly skilled stylist/color artist and one esthetician. I personally get my hair styled here by Alana and I get compliments on my hair all the time. Amy does my eye brow waxing and they are perfect every time (trust me, I have gone to a lot of people and when you find someone good, you stick with her.) You can check them out on facebook at https://www.facebook.com/home.php#!/pages/Kellys-Cottage-Hair-Salon/163159477028082

Chase 5 year "All American Boy" Session

















Chase is five years old now and he loves the outdoors, but  he hates having his picture taken so I knew I had to incorporate things that he loves to make it fun for him. We brought his fishing pole and let him fish a little bit, magnifying glass for finding bugs, net for catching bugs and some real live bull frogs (the frogs were not harmed during the making of the pictures and they were released after the photo session was over : ) .)  He also got to climb a tree during the session, now how much more boy can you get?  He actually enjoyed it and when I asked him to smile or look a certain way he did it without hesitation.  I think I have found a way to make it fun for Chase to have his picture made, and all kids alike. 
Any other kids in Tallahassee (or surroundig area) not fond of posing for photographs let Emily Garrison Photography personalize a session for their liking and "yes" we can bring out the live critters when neccessary ; )
