Prime vs Zoom

Prime vs. Zoom

Which is the best?  A question that has plagued mankind for decades!  :)

Prime:

A photographic lens where its focal length is fixed or unifocal. 

Zoom:

A photographic lens where its focal lengths vary in a single lens. 

When I first started shooting, I started off with Canon's 24-105 L f4 zoom lens. This is a great lens in perfect lighting situations; however, in low light, this lens gave me a hard time.  Even with an external flash, or hot shoe, there seemed to be lots of grain and noise!  That's when I realized that I needed something that would rage on even in the darkest of times!  Ha!  I had read so much about how fixed focal lengths typically performed well in low light, but I really never knew why!  That's when I did my research, bought my first primes, and haven't turned back!

Baby Baby Baby!

It was an absolute pleasure and honor to photograph my dear friend Chantia and her growing family! I'm so happy for the Hardens as they celebrate a new, beautiful addition to their family...Skylar! :)  

Will and LaToya

It was such an honor to photograph LaToya and Will's wedding! These two are one of the the nicest couples that I have ever worked with. Check out Will's expression when he first saw LaToya!! Priceless. I'm so grateful to have been there to witness and capture moments that they can cherish forever. I wish both of them everlasting love! xoxo ~Tiffany Goliday

Shelby's Bridal Shower

Elegance, class, and pure beauty are just a few words to sum up Shelby's amazing vintage bridal shower.  I have been to many showers in the past, but this one topped them all.  From the elegant lace to the vintage picture frames propped up on each table, Shelby's bridesmaids really did a fantastic job planning and making this special day come to life.  I am so happy for Travis and Shelby!  They are a wonderful couple soon to be married in late August.  I'm so honored that I was able to be apart of this shower, capturing memories that will last forever.

Congratulations Shelby and Travis!

Summer Fun!

I LOVE summer outdoor photos!  I had such a fun time with my cousins, Mike and Jazz.  We went to a nearby field and took the best outdoor photos.  The weather was perfect, the sun was just beginning to set, and my cousins looked amazing in their all white outfits!

Outdoor Pics!

I had the best time photographing my sister-in-law and her children.  The weather was perfect, blue skies and sunshine!  I also got the chance to pull out my favorite lens!  I just love summer and outdoor photos!

Hey Strangers!

It's been a while everyone!  This winter was crazy!  I've finally come out of hibernation!  I'm back!

I've decided to make a few changes to my business.  I've decided to shoot more outdoor photos and weddings.  These are my favorite settings by far!  Why not do what you love right?  I have decided to do what I love and try to steer away from things that don't quite fit my niche as a photographer.  I'm excited to focus on what I love!  I have also made a few price changes, not many, but a few.  If you paid a deposit in 2013, you do not have to worry about this at all!  And check out this cool magazine I created that explains it all:

Treasured Moments Event Planning & Creations Heavenly Inspired Decor

On Saturday, I had the opportunity to photograph the most exquisite, elegant, and breathtaking banquet room I have ever seen.  Treasured Moments Event Planning and Creations Heavenly Inspired Decor magically transformed this room into a small slice of Heaven.  I was truly taken back by the fine details in design... the chic and stylish table cloths and chair covers, the intricate, vibrant centerpieces, a gorgeous arch for the wedding ceremony, and much, much more!  Check out these photos:

Love was in the air!  I had the pleasure of shooting Travis and Shelby on Saturday.  This was one of the most fun, exciting, and inspiring sessions that I've ever had.  You could truly tell how much these two love one another!  All poses were natural, not forced...just natural and elegant.  I enjoyed every moment, and I am honored that I was able to be apart of this special day.  Travis & Shelby, thanks for allowing me to take your engagement shots!
