Merry Christmas from the Mothershead family!




































Hey Everyone! Guess what?! Yes I am posting new portraits of my girls today! I would have preferred to do their Christmas portraits on location but the weather here in Mobile, AL. just isn't allowing that. Anyway, I did their portraits in our in home studio and the girls did great! Normally Brelan dispises having her picture made but she did really good. I told her how proud of her I was :). Brelan is almost 3, four months shy of it and Mileigh is 8 months. They amaze me daily and I learn so much from them. This is Mileigh's first Christmas and for Brelan it's the first that she actually understands some of. She so gets the Santa thing and she knows that this is Jesus' birthday. Christmas is very hard for our family but I look forward to seeing my girls' faces on Christmas day when they open their gifts and watch home videos of Joeli and blow the candles out on Jesus' birthday cake. That was something that Joeli started. Her third Christmas when we explained to her that Christmas was Jesus' birthday, she insisted that he have a cake and candles and that we sing to Him! How precious! Oh to have that child like faith once again!


I look forward to your comments on these portraits and please feel free to contact us for your family portraits. Don't forget to sing to Jesus in the midst of your holiday hussle and bussle this Christmas...without Him there would be no Christmas!


We love yall,

Chad, Brittany, and Girls!

Merry Christmas!







Hello Everyone and Merry Christmas from our family to yours! Now that Thanksgiving has passed, we are all in the mood for shopping and lights and last but not least photos! This past weekend I had the privaledge of doing some family Christmas portraits for one of my best friends. The Ellis family is very dear to our hearts and not to mention their children are adorable. Their portraits were taken in downtown Mobile, AL. at Bienville Square with it's massive Christmas tree. I have been doing the Christmas portraits for this family for several years now and have very much enjoyed watching these precious babies grow. How time flies! It brings a tear to my face to think of my girls and the Christmas' past. Joeli loved everything about it and the year that we were blessed with Brelan was amazing to watch them together on Christmas morning. Although the holidays are very bittersweet for our family I do look forward to this Christmas and seeing Brelan and Mileigh together. How I wish our Joeli was here to share this special time with her two baby sisters. I know that Joeli is watching over them both and that there is a special connection in their tiny hearts with her. I long for the day that we are able to celebrate the true meaning of Christmas at the feet of our Heavenly Father together. Please remember that Jesus loves you "all heart" and don't forget to celebrate His birth and what it means for us! Merry Christmas!
