Pictures in the Park

I met up with J., A. and their dog Dawson in the park for a quick photo shoot. I love the glow that the fall sun created in this picture. It wasn't quite as warm as it looks though! J. and A. were great sports about toughing the cold during our session.

Little Lillian ~ 3 Months Old

One of the things I enjoy most about photograghing babies, is that I get to watch them grow. I first met Lillian when she was just 9 days old. With those eyes, I'm sure her daddy won't let her date until she's 40! She's such a beautiful girl!

Allie, 9 months

Normally, Allie is all smiles. This time, we were pulling out all the stops to get this little girl to smile, but she was in quite the serious mood. I think we still managed to snag some keepers.

Thank you again C and D for the early Christmas Present!!

Christmas Card Contender

The first time I met sweet Zoe, she was 5 days new. I can't believe how much she's grown since then! I don't know, but I think this picture could be a contender for the Christmas card this year!

Married {Robbie Kay and Josh}

The forecast for the wedding day called for rain and lots of it. Thankfully, the sun came out and the sky turned a brilliant shade of blue, making this beautiful bride's dream of having an outdoor wedding come true! It turned into a gorgeous day just in time. Congratulations, Josh and Robbie Kay!

Sweet Emily

Emily made me work for pictures this weekend! I don't think I could get her to smile if I was handing out lollipops and hundred dollar bills. She was quite the serious little girl. Towards the end of our time together she started to warm up and we were able to get some grins. I had a great time working with the S. family!

C and K {In Love}

I had a great time with C and K in the park yesterday! They were such good sports about having to drive around for 30 minutes (I wish I was exaggerating!) trying to find a parking spot! They even offered to take me for beers after we finished up. Who could ask for more?

All smiles...

It was a pleasure to meet the S. family this weekend! Ruby was such a sweet little baby and super easy going. I can't wait to work on her pictures!

One tough cookie!

This is Julia. She just turned 3. I can assure you that she is hardly the meany she appears to be, but this picture just cracks me up! I think I was trying to get her to be still and look into the camera by using some nifty tricks my friend Wendy told me to use. Whatever the case, I love this picture and hope you do too.

The R Family

Meet the R Family! These are a couple of great looking kids, huh? I snagged one of the whole family too, and hopefully I'll be able to add that here too.

Getting up to date!

Hi there internet friends! Sorry for the delay in posting. We've been busy, busy over here with all manner of craziness! Here are a few pictures to get me closer up to date.

Meet M and K. These two are as thick as thieves and as close as a brother and sister can be.

Meet the newest addition to the M Family!

Keira, Six months old

I can't believe it's already been six months since I first met sweet, little Keira! Stay tuned for more pics. I'll post more soon!

Engaged {Josh and Robbie Kay}

Yesterday, I had the opportunity to meet Josh and Robbie Kay for an engagement session. We had a BLAST! They were such a lovely couple and so easy to photograph. We went all over the place and were able to get a ton of great shots. I can't wait to share more of their pictures! Thanks again, you two!

Miss Olivia, 18 months old

Oh my goodness!! What a difference 9 months makes! Olivia had me running all over the place and she was just a giggly mess. It was so good to see Olivia and her mom again. It's been too long!

Allie, 6 months old

You might remember Allie from her 3 month pictures. I can't believe what a big girl she has become!

Sleeping Beauty

Meet Lillian, 9 days old.

Their Pride and Joy

One more!

Just one more from my friends!

B is for Baby Boy!

Beth Anne is a dear friend of mine. She and her husband are expecting their first baby in October. There was no shortage of laughter during this session. I'll probably post a few more from this session later, so stay tuned!

The S. Family...

It's always a pleasure to work with the S. Family!

5 Days New...

I almost can't take the sweetness that is this little girl. Meet Zoe Melora, 5 days old. Welcome to this great big world, little girl!

Expecting...

It was a pleasure meeting Amelia and Kyle last week. They were such a sweet and loving couple and I can't wait to meet the newest addition to their family in a few short weeks!

Thirty Seven and a Half Weeks...

37 1/2 weeks: That's how far into the pregnancy Erin is. Erin and Hendrik were so much fun to photograph. They were game for anything and Erin even climbed a TREE!!!

Three is the magic number!

Meet the R. Family! These kids were an absolute dream to work with. They were being so patient with the crazy lady with the camera.

Ellie, 7 days old

I had the pleasure of taking pictures of Ellie's mom and dad before she was born. Today, I was able to meet sweet little Ellie. She's so precious and the prettiest little thing ever!

Keira at Three Months Old

Saturday I spent the day in Raleigh and snagged 3 month pictures of Keira. This sweet little girl was such a trouper and we got some really great shots!

Lil' Peanut

Meet Emma Jane. Born 9 days late! This is my brother's newest baby and I just got back from visiting. I think she's precious!

Allie, 3 Months...

This is sweet little Allie. She has the thickest head of dark brown hair I have ever seen on a baby! She was super duper precious and it was a pleasure meeting her and her mama!

More of Lillian!

I begged Lillian's mom to let me take her to this little garden and take her picture. I took almost 400 pictures!!! Lillian was such a trooper and it was just such a beautiful day. I'll share 3...for now :o)

Wills

This is Wills. I joked that this pose was Wills version of "Blue Steel." (For those of you who aren't familiar with that reference, it's from the movie Zoolander starring Ben Stiller. The main character is a male super model and his signature pose is "Blue Steel.")
