DCHS Scholarship Recipients


Last week I was privileged to be able to return to my former high school (DeKalb County) where I grew up in Smithville, TN. The occasion was to photograph 3 graduating seniors that have received $500 each for a scholarship provided by Mr. Warren L. Johns. In the photograph above, you will see the 3 seniors in the front, Bert Driver from Bert Driver Nursery in the back left, and Lori Barnes, the DCHS counselor in the back right. Bert Driver Nursery is donating trees in honor of these students to be planted on the school campus, and the photograph you see here will be published in full color close to Mother's Day on the back page of the Middle Tennessee Times newspaper. Mr. Johns provides these scholarships in memory of his mother, so the print time for the newspaper display is very fitting. Congratulations to all of these students...and the world can be yours if you will pursue it!!!
Wow! This past weekend was so busy with family portrait sessions despite the crazy, cold, windy weather! We had a great time with the Hayes family Saturday evening, and the Franklin family on Sunday afternoon. I will have to admit though we did have to dance in and out of the rain on Sunday. Mrs. Franklin didn't mind much because she has been waiting to get her kids and grandkids together for this portrait for OVER A YEAR! We made it finally!
