Summer & Daniel | Raleigh Wedding Photography

Last weekend I had the pleasure of documenting the marriage of Summer and Daniel.  You won’t meet nicer people… they are sweet and kind and their love for one another is so easy to see.  The day of their wedding was stormy and rainy, so we were confined to the church for much of our photos – until the end when the sun showed up and we captured some amazing outdoor shots!!  The rain didn’t put a damper on the festivities, though — everything was beautiful and perfectly planned.

Right now they are surely relaxing on the beach.  Daniel planned the entire honeymoon himself and kept it a surprise from Summer!!  I thought that was so sweet and fun!  Thank you both for allowing me the opportunity to be there on your special day!!  Hope you are enjoying your honeymoon!!

Audrey & Anthony | Raleigh Wedding Photographer

This weekend I had the pleasure of photographing the beautiful wedding of Audrey and Anthony.  Audrey was a stunning bride, and her dress was absolutely gorgeous!  She managed to continue looking fresh and gorgeous the entire evening, despite the heat that day.  The reception was a blast – the neatest thing was the candy station Audrey planned.  The guests had a field day with all those sweets, it was so cool!

Audrey and Anthony, I hope you’re relaxing and enjoying your honeymoon!  I wish you many, many years of happiness, and thank you SO much for allowing me to be a part of your special day!  Congrats!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

It was SO sweet seeing Anthony get choked up as Audrey walked down the aisle…

This weekend I had the pleasure of photographing the beautiful wedding of Caitlin and Jeff alongside my friend Kate from This Little Light Photography.  The ceremony was held at Immaculate Conception Catholic Church in Durham, and the reception followed at The Carolina Inn in Chapel Hill.  It was all gorgeous – I was honored to be a part of it!

Baby Marco | Raleigh Newborn Photography

I recently had the pleasure of meeting sweet little Marco — all six pounds of him!  He is tiny and sweet and simply precious!  He’s the first newborn baby boy I’ve gotten to photograph in a while.  I’d had a streak of girls, so I was very excited about photographing a little boy!  He was precious!  Thank you to his wonderful family for allowing me to capture these memories!

Tate | Raleigh Family Photography

Tate celebrated his third birthday in June and his Mom called me to take his birthday pictures.  They are SUCH fabulous people and I could tell right away that they’re a super fun family.  We went for an urban look for their photos, which I think was a great decision!  I love all of their photos and I didn’t envy their decision to have to choose which ones to hang!

A big thanks to Tate for letting us drag him around in the heat!  🙂

 

I adore this next photo…

Greyson & Victoria

I hope you’re all ready for some major cuteness!  Greyson and Victoria (Tori) are two of the sweetest kids I’ve photographed.  We met up at one of my favorite places for pictures in Raleigh, so I was very excited!  They came looking so adorable (check out the dress with the octopus on Tori!!) and we had a lot of fun exploring the park.  Thanks for the great time guys!

 

I think this last one is my favorite.  She’s soooo adorable and perfect!

Koen

Koen was the winner of my Cutest Kids Contest this year.  What an absolute delight he was – I’ve never seen such a happy 9-month old!  I swear there was not a tear shed the entire session.  He sat and smiled as much as I wanted him to.  His parents sure are blessed to have such a sweet and adorable little boy.  I was so happy to have met them!!

Here’s a peak at some photos from his session!

Waiting Patiently | Raleigh Maternity Photographer

Meet Lindsay.  She’s very near and dear to my heart.  Some even say she looks like me.  🙂

Lindsay is expecting baby number two and we got together to surprise her hubby with some photos for Father’s Day.  Don’t worry, chances are slim to none he will see my blog before then!  I think it’s an amazing and unforgettable Father’s Day gift.  I think we captured some beautiful images – Lindsay is just glowing and gorgeous.  Expect to see adorable newborn baby photos all over the blog this fall, I can’t wait!

This little cutie is gonna be a fabulous big brother!!

This next one’s my favorite.  Isn’t she gorgeous?
