Sarah's beautiful Daughters
















5 girls, all beautiful! I hope Sarah's husband has invested in a shotgun! We did a few shots in the studio, and then headed down to the park for some more casual stuff. What a wonderful bunch these girls are. They really look out for each other. I don't know how Sarah keeps up cause they wore me out!!!

Getting the business
















Ashley's family came in for a session last week, but Amelia really wasn't feeling well. It was difficult to get her to smile this time for sure....overall though, I was pleased. But she sure can "give you the business" when she wants too. Here's a few to share..

Speaking of Being a Grandmom......
















I finally coaxed my daughter onto the studio for a few portraits before Miss Zoie arrives. I think any parent should leave photographing their own children to others though....it's just sooooo frustrating (and it doesn't get better when they get older. Poor girl, I always make her do things she doesn't want to do...

Vunerability....




I never realized until today just how vulnerable doing these portraits makes you feel...especially posting them online. But with our fifth anniversary coming up, I thought I'd do my own session for my husband...man, is it ever hard being on both sides of the camera at the same time! I sure hope he appreciates all my effort...lol. Oh well, not too bad for a soon to be Grandmother......

Beauty Inside and out....



This beautiful young lady came by for portraits for her husbands birthday. She is so timid and shy...and so incredibly beautiful. I think by the time we finished her session, she was feeling so much more comfortable and even allowed me to share a couple here with you. Thanks Lauren. I hope he loved them....and I really had fun creating them for you.

Alice and Family....




What a pleasure it was creating these portraits for Alice and her family. Alice won a session through a contest sponsored by our local mommies group http://www.swpiedmontmommies.com/

and so we headed off to the park for the morning. She has such a beautiful daughter and her husband is just a big kid himself. I really enjoyed my time with them....Next time you see her, ask her why her husband's new nickname is Adam.

And now Elaine's girls






What a pair of cuties these two were....and a pleasure to have in the studio. When Elaine set up her appointment, I was a little bit worried how things would go....but the girls did a marvelous job and really made the session fun.....did I tell you I love my job? Thank you guys for making this a wonderful experience.

Kiley turns five




I am so far behind on updating things (again)...Here's a few from Kiley's recent Birthday session. She just gets prettier every time she comes to visit.

The Wilson Family






The Wilson's dropped by with their latest addition...what a beautiful little man!! I just fell in love with his big ol cheeks! Thought I'd share a few .....thank you guys...you have a beautiful family and it was a pleasure working with you all!
