The "J" Family

This family has been dear friends of mine for a long time – through thick and thin! I absolutely adore them, so I was honored and thrilled when they called asking me to take some photos of them for their holiday cards this year. We managed to get their pets in the photos as well – aren’t they all adorable?




And here is their kitty, Sadie. She didn’t make it into many of the shots – she mainly hid on us!

This weekend I worked with a local event photographer to photograph the Half Marathon being held in Wilmington, NC. It was a COOOOOLD morning and my fingers nearly froze off! It was quite the experience.

This was my favorite finish line photo. She looks so happy… and she should, she just finished a half marathon!


Congrats to all of the amazing runners!

The ‘M’ Family

Last week my family and I visited my husband’s relatives in New York. While we were there, we held a little impromptu session in my Mother-in-law’s backyard to get some pictures of my nephews. They’re pretty cute, but then again I’m biased!





This next one makes me laugh because it just completely captures who my little nephew Brennan is – silly and funny!


And this is Logan – the quieter (though still not completely quiet) of my two nephews.



Thanks for stopping by! Be sure to Like me on Facebook!

I had such a blast in Wake Forest with the ‘C’ family. I must say that their little boy, 2-year-old ‘D’ is one of the most well behaved little boys I’ve ever met. He made my job a breeze!

I LOVED so many of the shots we got of the ‘C’ family. You can really see the love between them and how much fun they have together. Thanks for making my job so much fun, guys! Hope you like this peek at your photos!

This weekend was absolutely gorgeous! I had the pleasure of photographing the ‘G’ Family yesterday morning at Joyner Park in Wake Forest – a BEAUTIFUL place for pictures. These girls are precious and you can tell they’re going to be the best of buds!

We had a gorgeous morning in Raleigh for my photo session with the ‘R’ family. You might recognize little Miss ‘L’ from her first birthday pictures I took last week. She is adorable!

Enjoy your sneak peek!










First Birthday Party for Miss "L"

Yesterday Miss “L” turned one! I was lucky enough to photograph her totally fabulous first birthday parties (yes – she had TWO). She’s the first child and first grandchild for both sides of the families, so as you can imagine everyone came to town and her parents pulled out all the stops to give her a wonderful party!




Miss L’s Mommy makes clothing, taggie blankets, carseat handle pads, and all sorts of other fabulous things – and she can monogram! If you’re interested in having her make something for you, you can send me an e-mail and I’ll give you her contact info. Or you can look up her Facebook page. Just search for LouLouBean. She’s fabulous!


These shoes are what greets you as you walk in their front door. How cute are these tiny shoes? I think she has more pairs than I do! I’m jealous!


Thanks for having me at your party, Miss “L”! See you Saturday for your session!

This is the ‘V’ family. Their two-year-old little boy is such a perfect looking little model. I think he looks like a mini little jean model – with that perfect blonde hair and bright blue eyes, he’s just adorable!

Enjoy your sneak peek, ‘V’ family!

Miss ‘K’ is my super adorable niece! She’s turning two next month and I just can’t get over how grown up she is. And boy, she’s a great model! She showed me her big crooked grin whenever I asked. Isn’t she cute?
