Fantastic Mr. Fox, The Royal Tenenbaums, The Darjeeling Limited, Moonrise Kingdom, The Isle of Dogs….what do all of these have in common besides Wes Anderson? Why the Holland Family of course!

Interesting fact about Kathryn: she and I are due on the exact same date (November 23rd, 2018) I have gotten to know Kathryn this year thanks to my wedding and family photography business. She was recommended as a hair and makeup artist to me by someone on social media (thanks to whoever recommended us to meet […]

You all, one of my dreams came true when I got to photograph a bridal + wedding session in my hometown of Bozeman, Montana in August. I grew up in Montana from 1984-2003 and I have not been back since I moved down south for college (and eventually I ended up living in Nashville, TN […]

If you are not from Nashville, then you should know that August in Nashville is one of the hottest months of the year, so as a photographer I have to get pretty creative with locations of where to shoot because I do not want my clients to die in the heat (and I especially do […]

Thank you so much Ledingham, Van Cleave, and the Horton family for working with Dolly DeLong Photography for your combined family session in Brentwood, TN! Here are several of my favorite photos. Thank you so much for always reaching out to me to help capture your yearly milestone family sessions, and I love watching your kids […]

This past August I had the opportunity of getting to 2nd shoot for Ivory Door Studio in Bell Buckle, TN. Let me be perfectly honest, this wedding was HARD for me because of the intense heat (and heat + pregnancy = uncomfortable and unbearable). Nonetheless, it was a great learning opportunity for me to be […]
