Welcome to my blog!
Welcome to Tiffany Hix Photography! I'm so glad you decided to stop by because I LOVE what I do and I would love to share it with you. Here you will find sneak peeks of recent sessions, images of my adorable children (when they let me photograph them) and random things that I find interesting ... and I am quite random at times! So, sit back and enjoy ... be sure to leave comments because when a client receives 10+ comments on their Session Spotlight they get a special little gift from me ... so comment away, we all love comments!!
I know, I know ... I'm way behind on sneak peeks again. I will post more over the next few days.
I got to photograph little Miss "H" again! You might remember this little cutie from last spring. She participated in the "National Charity Model Search" that benefits Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep. She is such a little ham in front of the camera and her session was so much fun! Here's a little peek ...
Enjoy!

Yesterday was beautiful! Sunny, 60 degrees and only a slight breeze ... it was wonderful! I had ordered some clothes for the kids to do a shoot with them before Gabe loses a top tooth (both are really loose) but I told Gabe they were for his 6 year old pictures ... his birthday isn't until May so I will be doing another shoot for his birthday pictures but for we'll just keep that a secret from him for now. ;) We went to my new favorite little spot for a grungy, weedy, fabulous background. The gentleman that owns this property is very nice for letting me wander around and photograph there. I got to hear all about his family history too which was very interesting. His family has owned that property for nearly 100 years ... crazy!
Enjoy!
So, Gabe loves the color green and he loves to wear ties and collared shirts. He's such a funny boy. He was so excited when we opened up the box of clothes and saw what was inside for him. Alison is my girlie girl. Her favorite color is pink and she loves to wear pink dresses and pink shoes. I actually have only gotten her out of that dress to go to bed last night ... she put it back on first thing this morning.
I am going to post the entire session of my kids as a slideshow here. If you want to see the images larger and hear the music I chose to accompany their session just click on the maximize icon on the bottom right of the slideshow viewer to view the slideshow full size.

So, I got this phone call today from my BFF blog stalker letting me know that I suck at updating my blog. Hmmm ... well, ok I do think I've been slacking on adding content to my blog posts but they aren't completely missing. Whateva! LOL! Let's see ... I've had a lot of email from photographers lately asking questions so I'll take a minute to answer some frequently asked questions here.
What camera do you use?
I'm a Canon girl. I shoot with a 5D and have a 20D backup.
When lenses do you use?
I'm a self professed lens junkie and I love L glass. My current lens line up is:
Canon 35 mm f/1.4L
Canon 50 mm f/1.2L
Canon 85 mm f/1.2L
Canon 135 mm f/2L
Canon 70-200 mm f/2.8L IS
Are there any photoshop actions that you use?
First things first .... the first step to creating an image to make sure that your image is properly exposed and well lit. There is no "fix all" for photoshop or action that can make any photo good, you must start with a good image and then enhance it. Now that my PSA is done .... I use Lightroom to process my images and then pull them in to Photoshop for additional retouching if needed. When I do use actions I like Totally Rad Actions but with my own tweaks added.
Can I shadow you?
Because my clients are expecting my complete attention and I expect to give that to them I do not allow other photographers to shadow me.
Do you have any suggestions for some one just starting out?
Practice, practice, practice. Make sure your work is consistently good ... properly exposed, well lit, good composition ... before you begin thinking about turning photography in to a career.
And now on to the second subject in the title .... My Loves! Here's a couple of images of each of my kiddos from this weekend. And these images are just sooooo them. I love Alison in her pink sunglasses and ponytail and the way she holds her hands together when she's cold. And then my Gabe ... he's so funny. I love his big laugh and even his shaggy long hair and chapped lips because he licks them when he's concentrating on something. Oh, I love my babies!
Rach
- I have to agree, I miss seeing your updates and pictures. I always want to see MORE! :) Good to see the kiddos!

I'm a little behind on my sneak peek posting so I have a couple darling little ladies to share. These girls are so sweet and they even braved the snow to have their portraits taken. I love the look of snowy portraits!
Enjoy!
Cynthia
- Words would fail if I should try to convey the beauty of these two children. What an awesome blessing children are. Each day I gain a deeper realization of what the world would be like without the smiles and joys that children bring. Your photography is so smooth, simply awesome!

I am working on trying Project 365 again this year ... but I think I'm going to have to do it with a twist ... if I miss a day I will make it up. I am also going to only post the images once a week because I love how easy Blogshow is to upload images rather than the 1 image at a time uploads ... so every Thursday I will upload 7 images that I have taken over the course of the week ... sometimes there will be more. This last week is all about my little girl ... the only willing model in my house ... except for Barbies and homemade oreos and falling snow, which I also photographed.
Here's my beautiful little girl!
Enjoy!

- i love her red hair!! the ones in the purple hat are my fav...and that last black and white is awesome!

Thank you to all of my wonderful clients of 2008!
I got to hold your babies, play with your children, make you do silly things and laugh as loud as possible ... I even got to cry at your weddings.
It was truly a pleasure getting to know all of you ...
I am glad to have been a part of creating your family's memories!!
This slideshow includes images from every session that I photographed in 2008. Some of them will be familiar from sneak peeks posted throughout the year but others are images only my clients saw. I hope you all enjoy the slideshow!
