Nashville Videographer + Photographer | The Smith Family

My sweet friend, Alisha, and I met via Facebook years ago. She lives 3 hours away in Chattanooga. Occasionally she comes to Nashville and we try to see one another. We chat by phone regularly and just adore one another. Last October of 2023, she became pregnant. An amazing surprise. Even though it was her 3rd* pregnancy, she got big fast compared to the other 2 pregnancies. Her husband kept telling her he thought it was twins. So, in an attempt to prove him wrong, she got an ultrasound. (She wanted a home birth and in that birth world they don't automatically do ultrasounds). So she gets the ultrasound and it is indeed twins! she said she screamed and PASSED OUT! 😂😂😂If you knew Alisha, you would know that she is a woman of great power. This girl backs down from nothing. She also struggles with control and surrender, to which God gave her twins 😂😂😂Her pregnancy was REALLY hard. physically just SO hard. mentally hard, because everyone placed so many doubts in her mind (or they tried to anyway).I have never been more proud of a mama. She tracked her food and ate as much protein as she could. she was on a beautiful array of supplements and minerals. Having a degree in developmental psychology, I understand what she would need to carry theses babies as long as possible. She carried them to FORTY WEEKS. She had Etta first, weighed 7 lbs something. and Truett second, weighing in at over 9 lbs and BREECH. At home. with her amazing midwives.Watching her go through it all, I decided that my baby gift would be a newborn/family film after the twins arrived. I drove down and our other friend, Khloe (and her doula) came too, and after the film and photos were done, we all ate tacos that Alisha had made for cinco de mayo. It was so fun and a memory I will carry forever.She is SO grateful for this film of this unpredictable life they are living. They built a home and moved in last fall and now have these precious twins and two older girls to raise. It's such a beautiful life and a gift she gets to live. Enjoy her film and photos.If you want a family film, please reach out to me here! I would love to talk!
