Griffin – 2 years
Okay, so I love my clients! It’s been such a joy watching little Griffin grow up! I can’t believe he’s two…
What’s even more awesome is that his mommy drove all the way up from Atlanta for our session. It was so great to take photos in my town. We went so many places and had a blast. I learned that Griffin has a thing for “the guys” aka: construction workers….he thinks they are awesome! What is it about boys? 
Matt and Candy, thank you so much for coming all this way…. I am so glad I was able to photograph Griffin again… All my best!
this first shot is perfect! Griffin isn’t always about big smiles…but, those eyes are amazing!
such amazing light…you wouldn’t know it was raining on us….
3 different sides of Griffin…
Keisha and Mike… married! – Asheville, NC
It only took them forever to figure it out and date each other! These two have been mutual friends with us for years. I loved that I was able to photograph the wedding. What a fun and…freezing day it was! Seriously, it was so cold! Oh…and there was rain. Okay, so not the most ideal outdoor wedding, but as soon as Keisha walked down the aisle, I don’t think anyone noticed… Homewood is always a beautiful backdrop for pictures, but I think we were all pretty happy to go to Coleman Place and warm up afterward! What a fun party too! This wedding was a wonderful way to wrap up wedding season!
Rolls and a little real life.
These two are the cutest cousins! Look how big Jessica is getting? 6 months…wow, time flies. And little man Gage is 3 weeks already? He is so alert! You know I love you girls! I had such a fun weekend! Thanks for the visit. Sarah…has she cut a tooth yet?
Kelsey and Robby – Lake Lure, NC
Kelsey and Robby are the sweetest couple and very dear to my heart. I was thrilled that the big day was finally here! A very long engagement and a lot of planning and anticipation led up to a gorgeous wedding!
Lake Lure Inn was beautiful. You couldn’t have asked for a more picturesque venue and the accomodations were perfect for a mountain wedding.
I really could go on and on about Kelsey. She has meant so much to me and has been a huge supporter of my business. In fact, I had 3 former brides at this wedding! It was like a little reunion. She also left the nicest gift in my room… thank you for that. Here are a few teasers…
so as usual… I can’t resist a cute baby!
this was my favorite part of the whole day… we staged an intimate meeting for the couple prior to the ceremony. It allowed for us to get some awesome images! Look how sweet they were? There was not a dry eye…I was crying too!
the beautiful girls…
Hilarious!
this shot is my favorite! I pulled them away from the reception for this….
Hope the honeymoon was amazing! Love you both – Katy
2 year old twins…
Wow. Shooting two year olds is hard enough… I know from first hand experience with my own, but, twins!? I have a new found respect for Thomas and Cat! These kids are amazing! I did their newborn photos and I can’t believe how much they’ve changed? We ran around the home and had a blast and I loved the rooster that wanted attention too! Here is a quick sneak peek.
Baby Gage is here.
Our dear friends, Julie and Chris, had their baby last week and he’s the sweetest guy! It gets me so much more excited for my nephew’s arrival!
Julie surprised me with a super cool hairstyle on Gage and I was tickled… a faux hawk! Gotta love it!
Here are just a few teasers. I’m also including some maternity we shot at my house just a few weeks before. Julie- I can’t wait to start up our “Lost” nights again! Hopefully, Gage is sleeping through the night by then…:)
love. such a silly game we play.
for jayme and cole.

Katy Katy Katy! I love you and I love love love the pictures! You are amazing!
April and Will – Barnsley Gardens, Georgia
April is so easily adored. She has that constant love and positive energy that attracts anyone and Will was no exception.
I discovered quite the love story about the two…. April and Will met on a plane. I’m sorry, but, how romantic! After striking up a conversation on their flight… Will regreted not getting her number. Luckily, they ended up on another flight together and the rest is history. I was honored to witness the love and marriage between them both.
I think my favorite part of the day was our time shooting with the couple before the wedding. April really wanted to have some time with just Will before walking down the aisle. Barnsley Gardens is an amazing venue for photography! The historic home burned to the ground, but the ruins make for a beautiful setting! I was in love with it all!
April and Will- my best to you both! You are truly blessed with a love that will last! And a special thanks to Jamie! You rock! Thanks for the referral!
little help from sis…
the ruins that made my heart pitter patter….
April adores kids! She worked as a nanny for one of my client’s kids and they were in the wedding!
thanks to you both!
WOW!!!! Katy you are awesome and April & Will are too adorable! After checking the blog every day sometimes mulitple times i am relieved to see them up but now what a tease!!! can’t wait for the rest!
“ahhhh Katy they are incredible!!! you did an awesome job!! thank you so much
for putting them up so quickly!!”
UN-believably perfect. these capture exactly how wonderful april and will are and everything beautiful about them as a couple and their wedding. love them!
I love this family!
I’ve had the pleasure of photographing each of these kiddos since they were babies! I love watching my client’s grow in to such personalities! Angela, thanks so much for traveling for the session. I am honored to be part of your yearly photo tradition.
These kids should all model for the Gap.
A seriously gorgeous family….
A Special Note: I know I have many anticipating their proofs. I am right there with you! I will be sending all proofs out this week and next week. I’m still tracking a turn-around of 6 weeks for weddings and 3 for portrait sessions. Thanks to everyone for the patience. I love taking the time to make you look great! Best!
Lisa and Jason – Hickory, NC
So much to post and so little time….
What a fun wedding and the gorgeous couple! I met Lisa and Jason earlier this year at another wedding I was shooting. They are such a sweet couple and I’m so jealous of them…they are honeymooning in Hawaii right now…. We had a beautiful October day and I loved the colors! The Catawba Country Club was beautifully decorated with candles and white lilies. Thanks for such a fun time!
The first two pics are from Lisa’s Bridal Portraits….we had an incredible amount of rain during the session, but lucked out with a bit of sunshine…
