Clarity Photography bio picture

Hey there!

My name is Tammy and I'm a Tyler, Texas based photographer, busy Mom of two boys, and wife to a great (and handsome!) guy.  Life is busy, fast paced and chaotic, and I love every minute of it!

On the professional front, I mostly photograph babies, children, and families.  I shoot on location using natural light or at my studio space in downtown Tyler.  The studio offers natural light shooting as well as the option of studio lighting.  I strive to produce timeless images with a modern edge, classic yet unexpected. 

I absolutely love what I do and pride myself on being able to 100% relate to my clients.  More than anything, I'm a Mom.  I know what it feels like to be 8 months pregnant, or hold your newborn baby in all their snuggly newness.  I know how funny (and not funny!) a two year old can be, or how at times, you can be with your family and realize there is no other place on earth you'd rather be. These are the moments I know are fleeting, sometimes funny and above all, precious.

Thanks for stopping by, I hope you like what you see  :)

double the fun | tyler texas twin photographer

Oh, these boys were so much fun!  They are full of energy, mischief and joy — capturing them was an absolute blast.  I had to chase them quite a bit to keep up, but I just adore the images we ended up with.  In fact, the first two images may be the only time these boys were still for more than a few seconds at a time  :) tyler texas twin photographer-3tyler texas twin photographer-2tyler texas twin photographer-4tyler texas twin photographer-5tyler texas twin photographerUntil next time,

{family} more what to wear inspiration | tyler texas family photographer

So, I’m back with a little more “What to Wear” inspiration for family sessions.  Again, these are not meant to be set in stone, or in an effort to take the place of your family looking like “your family”.  I simply like blogging these for ideas on color schemes, clothing combination possibilities, etc.

I really like this particular grouping for it’s classic, soft and vintage feel.  Something like this would be perfect for a session in the home/backyard, a field, a garden, or park.  The soft colors would even work well in the light and bright studio.  Have a look:

wtwfamilyrosenologo

Again, use this to build or expand!  Mom, if you are more comfortable in a long skirt, work with that.  If this look isn’t Dad’s norm, use the color scheme for his style… maybe a loose button up instead of a sweater.  You get the idea  :)

Until next time,

Tammy

laughter | tyler texas children and family photographer

I’ve known this family for quite some time, and I’m always so happy when I have the opportunity to photograph them.  This time was no exception!  Though it was really warm and VERY humid during our session, I just love what we ended up with.  Tons of fun interaction and best of all, lots of laughs.

We started out with some family fun…

And finally, little brother, who’s little smile is just infectious!

Thanks *F* family, I loved every minute of our session!

{family} what to wear | tyler texas baby and child photographer

So you’re all set.  You’ve officially booked a family session with me.  The date and time is chosen, session fee is taken care of, and everything is on the calendar.  You’re feeling pretty good, right?  Then, panic sets in.  You break out into a cold sweat.  A question is literally burning in your brain.

WHAT DO WE WEAR?!?

This is actually a question I get asked a lot, and even after I give suggestions of colors, how to coordinate without being “matchy-matchy” , and tips on where to shop, I still hear doubt in my clients voices when they hang up the phone.   So, I thought I would start including some visual inspiration on the blog to make things easier.

This particular ‘What to Wear Guide’ is great for just about any kind of session that is on location.  At your home, a park, a field, even an urban/downtown shoot:

wtwfamilycasualnologo copy

And this is just a start, you can totally build on this to make it more  “you”.  Mom can add a denim jacket over the top of the dress, Dad can wear a fedora hat, you can add a funky headband for the little girl, you get the idea.  The key is to have fun and feel confident in what you are wearing.

And if you haven’t booked a family session in the last year or two, what are you waiting for?!?  :)

Until next time,

Tammy

June 28, 2010 - 10:58 am Brandi Burkett - LOVE this! Did you shoot this or find it somewhere?

July 3, 2010 - 11:06 am Jennifer Morse Photography - I LOVE what to wear guides! I might be a photographer, but I have no fashion sense!

{summer} | tyler texas children and family photographer

Though the summer has gotten off to a really hot start, we’ve been loving every second of it!  In between sessions and editing, the boys and I have been sleeping in, hanging out at the pool, taking in a few movies, trips to Target (the happiest place on earth) and enjoying our 4 legged family members.

Here’s a quick snapshot of some of our family fun so far, all of these were taken with a wide angle lens (distortion fun!) – enjoy!

his cuteness runneth over | marshall texas baby photographer

I love photographing all ages of babies and children, but if I had to pick an absolute favorite age, it would probably be right around the 6 month mark.  At that age, I can usually expect lots of big smiles, fun expressions, baby drool (love it!), playing with feet, clapping hands… it’s like every single thing they do is cute  :)   This particular session was a perfect example of six-month-old-cuteness.  Meet baby *g* :

See?!  See?!  Totally cute:

gr-marshall-texas-baby-photographerA family shot (cute x 3):

gr-tyler-texas-family-photographerAt this age, the cuteness comes with a little pain (teeth coming in!).  So, what do you get a lot of?  Hands in mouth (still cute!)  :)

gr-tyler-tyler-baby-photographerAlmost naked baby on a couch.  The cute just keeps on coming!

gr-tyler-texas-child-photographerI had a great time meeting baby *g* and his parents, they drove in from Marshall for the session.  I think it was worth the trip, I loved what we ended up with.  Gallery coming soon!

Until next time,

Tammy

it’s getting hot in here | tyler texas photographer

Another great family session at the Rose Garden.  I know, I know — I used to swear that location completely off (I kind of thought it was too “Tyler”).  But, honestly, it’s a gorgeous location with plenty of open shade, loads of color and well, I do live in Tyler, so what’s so wrong with it being “too Tyler”?  Like I’m too cool to shoot at a great location that is right under my nose, right?

Anyway, this sweet family is from Austin and a referral from a friend and neighbor via facebook <waving to J!>.  And even though it was incredibly warm hot the evening of the shoot, and we later ended up at my studio, we had a great time.

We started out with some family fun – Mom, Dad and six month old *w*.  I have been so lucky to get such great captures with families lately, this one was no exception (if I do say so myself!):

tyler-texas-family-photographerLove these of Mom and baby *w* – yum!

tyler-texas-baby-photographertyler-tx-baby-photographerNext, we decided to make the short drive to the studio for a few shots.  This wasn’t in the original plan, but it worked out fabulously.  Mom couldn’t have picked the wardrobe more perfectly for my space.  See for yourself:

tyler-texas-baby-photographer-russellAnd this one makes me smile every time I look at it — oh, this little face!

tyler-texas-baby-photographer-russell2Thanks, *R* family — it was great  :)   Gallery coming in a few days, hang tight!

Until next time,

Tammy

baby *k* | tyler texas newborn photographer

Meet sweet baby girl *k* — she and her Mommy made the drive down from Arlington for me to photograph her and I was so happy they did.  It took a bit for us to get *k* in a deep sleep (about an hour and a half), but once she was out, we were able to really have some fun with posing.  I had a hard time picking favorites (I think I say that a lot with newborn sessions!), but hey, can you blame me?  :)

So perfect… when you see them like this, you realize what an incredible gift they are:

k2-tyler-texas-newborn-photographyk3-tyler-texas-newborn-photographerI love this one (Mom brought the hat, major score!):

sweet and sleepy newborn | tyler texas newborn photographer

July 25, 2010 - 4:30 pm kristin miller - Hi, my sister just had her first baby and we are looking for a newborn photographer and I was curious the price ranges for photos?

joy | tyler texas baby and child photographer

Have I mentioned before that I love my “job”?  Nothing makes me happier than showing up for a session at a sublime location, with an adorably cute (and sweet!) little family and fabulous, golden light, just waiting to be captured.  That was totally the scenario with the *L* family – Mom, Dad, two year old *z* and 5 week old baby girl *a*.  I had such a good time getting to know them while we were shooting, I felt like I had known them forever.  And honestly, trying to narrow down my favorites from this session was like trying to choose my favorite child.  Impossible!  I loved them all for different reasons  :)

I have to start out by introducing little *z*.  Insert happy sigh here.  She is the tiniest, cutest little thing, who happened to be wearing this perfect little dress that had a slightly vintage feel to it (l.o.v.e.).  She has big, brown, melt-your-heart  eyes, and the best thing?  The fact that she wanted to hold my hand when we would walk from place to place during the session.  Insert another happy sigh here…

Next, some family time… the expressions, the light, the cute factor.  Oh my goodness, I was in photographer sensory overload and shooting as fast as my little finger would let me…

A few of Mom and baby *a*, pretty girls…

Thanks, *L* family – I hope you love them as much as I do.  Gallery coming soon, I’ll be in touch!

Until next time,

Tammy
