Thanks so much for stopping by! My name is Kristen Johse Parker and I am a photographer in Nashville, Tennessee. My love for photography truly began when my daughter was born... she grew so fast and I quickly realized how important it was to capture these fleeting moments! From her first steps to her first dance class... I love that something as simple as photograph can bring us right back to that instant.
After some encouragement from friends and family my little hobby has grown into a little business... I feel so blessed to love what I do- and I hope you love it too!
I had so much fun hanging out with this family! Jack has gotten so big since the last time I got to see him and Madeleine has grown from a sweet camera shy toddler to a lovely little model. I feel so honored to be chosen to capture these stages of childhood… such a blessing!
loved these sweet moments with dad….
and this impromptu hug with mom just melted my heart!
see what I mean? little model…
to see their first session go here…
So you know I usually have multiple photos of baby feet, those teeny tiny toes and soft pudgy skin get me every time!! Well, this time I kinda had a different obsession- meet Jake. And meet Jake’s brand new just-had-a-bottle-pulled-from-my-mouth lips… doesn’t he have the most precious baby lips ever! it really was hard for me to focus on anything else!!
isn’t he so handsome in green!
you know you wanted a closer look at those perfectly pouty baby lips…
Jake with his beautiful big sis Emma
Sweet snuggly goodness! These two were awesome… thanks so much for sharing this time with me…
- These were adorable. I know Grandma (Dona) is going to love them. Boy Jake has really changed since I saw him the day he was born...
Last week I had the honor of photographing tiny baby girl Natalee and her beautiful mom and sis. Natalee is truly a little miracle… born several weeks before schedule without a hitch. Just two weeks old and a teeny 5 pounds 12 ounces, but you wouldn’t know it by her strength and persistence when she’s hungry! She surprisingly stayed awake until the very end- determined to outlast me, but I didn’t mind getting some shots of these amazing eyes, so new and pure… I get why they say eyes are the windows to the soul…
I have no idea how Natalee could be so beautiful… oh yeah… check out her momma!
Fun with the girls!
Big sister Maddie was so sweet, giggling over Natalee’s tiny feet and holding her little hands…
Amanda, thank you for spending this time with me… you have a beautiful family…
- Kristen Thank you for giving us this memory! I love them and can't wait to see the rest! You rock:)
- Those are incredible! I love them. You really captured the moments. I like them all!
- OMG....these are so good...thank you for taking such beatuiful pics of my neices..
- These are wonderful. I love the naked ones on the boppy pillow and the one with just Madolyn and Natalee. This photographer is wonderful! Cant wait to be old enough to have babies and take naked pictures of them ;)
- i love these photos! great colour, and wonderful moments. i think the little bow on her head , is adorable!
I LOVE this family… not kidding… this family rocks! I met the Dillinghams through our awesome church… soon after meeting, Jennifer and I were taking our preschool daughters for girls lunches at Tequilas (we’re great moms… right?) and the rest is history. We have so much fun hanging out together and our kids are best buddies with their kids. I feel so blessed to call them our friends!
So about a month ago we got together for some photo fun in the park, and I’m FINALLY posting them… Meet Rylie and Nathan- umm they don’t look like siblings at all!!!
I liked these couple pics of Daniel and Jennifer… somehow they seem to fit their personalities
I thought this was such a sweet one… and loved the next reaction image even more…
there were so many pictures I loved of them… it was hard to choose which ones to blog! and last but not least… isn’t Jennifer a hot mom 
LOVE YOU GUYS!!
- I Love Them. You are so talented, and we love you guys too!!!
