Chattanooga Family Photography Blog

by Christian Michelle Photography

Welcome to my Family Photography Blog! I've put together several articles to better serve my clients with topics that I hope are useful to you whether you live in the Chattanooga area or not! I plan to write about tips and tricks for making your photo sessions successful, tips for what to wear to your photo sessions, and anything else that you might find interesting and helpful! I'm always working on more blogs and if you'd like to suggest a topic, do a guest post, or you have anything to say, send me a message! I hope you enjoy my family photography blog!
