Well, you know I can’t take a beach vacation without taking a LOT of pictures. Some of you have probably viewed my pictures on Facebook and other places already, but I also really want to share with everyone else.
It was my baby’s first time at the beach. He spent a lot of time examining the sand… and eating some too.
I LOVE beach pictures!
Those of you who have been to the Outer Banks have surely heard of the wild horses that often roam the beaches in Corolla. Fortunately, we saw them. What a gorgeous, gorgeous sight!
The sand dunes at Jockey’s Ridge State Park are amazing and a great spot for photos. We went and watched the sunset. BEAUTIFUL!
Here’s my hubby and I atop a sand dune.
This next one I pulled over on the side of the road to get out and take the picture. There were tons of interesting farms and things along the way. If I’d have stopped as often as I wanted, I’d have never made it home.
I’m already wanting to go back!
This weekend I am launching my new website and I’m so excited! It will officially mark the end of my portfolio building and the beginning of my photography business.
If you’d like to take advantage of my current portfolio-building price rate, please act quickly! You must book before Saturday, September 4th to secure this rate.
More details to follow about my new website and pricing.
Many thanks to all the fabulous families I’ve photographed. I’ve met some amazing people and hope to see you all again soon!
I had a blast spending the morning with the ‘K’ children in Raleigh. Benjamin is four and he’s so shy and sweet. He cuddled and hugged his sister so many times – he seemed to just adore her. And who wouldn’t? Two-year-old Sarah was all smiles (and silly faces) and she’s just precious. What a great family! Many thanks to their parents for choosing me to capture their images at these special ages. It’s one of the reasons I love being a child photographer – beautiful children like these!
This weekend I took some pictures at the NC Museum of Art in Raleigh. They have grounds that are open to the public and free to access. 160-something acres of awesome scenery. Art, ponds, bridges, paths, benches… the possibilities for great pictures are endless.
Contact me to book your session at the NC Museum of Art!
I had the wonderful pleasure of photographing these sweet little boys in Raleigh this past weekend. I’ve known this family for a while, and I was honored that they asked me to do their family pictures!
We had such a good time and the evening light was fantastic. Jacob is two and did a great job smiling for me once I learned the secret code for smile – “show your teeth!” Little Tyler is just four months old and he seemed like he’d rather nap than look at the camera. In fact, he fell right asleep while I was trying to take his picture. Oh, the life of a baby!
Thanks for the fun session, guys!
This weekend I had some fun photographing the “H” family in Wake Forest, NC. Lillian became a big sister just eight weeks ago when little Henry was born. He was such a great little boy and the two of them seem to get along so well. They’re a fabulous family!
Here’s a peek at some of their photos!
I just love getting to photograph little girls! And these two are just the cutest. Autumn is two (almost three) and little Morgan is 15 months. They have the most gorgeous blond hair and are dressed fabulously. How cute are the green and pink dresses? Bright colors always photograph well – Mom picked the perfect outfits for them! Thanks for a fun morning, guys!
Meet Hunter. He’s 9 months old and has the most amazing eyes! I just can’t get over how beautiful they are. He’s SO photogenic. He and his family were such a pleasure to photograph. We did the session at the Children’s Garden in Columbia. What a unique little place!
You all may remember Lilly from my post a few days back. I took some photos of her right after she was born. But this was her “real” newborn shoot. She is such a gorgeous baby… and fiesty! She squirmed the entire time I tried to take her photos and wouldn’t sleep for more than a minute at a time no matter what we tried. Fortunately I managed to snap a few good shots. I hope I did her beauty justice!!
I think this first one is my favorite…
