We’ve had our moments of tears during sessions – but, I think I have grown on her a bit… :) I love my baby planners.

We had a blast and these kids were so adorable. I love the weather in Wilmington…. I think they only have a few months of real cold…nothing like the 70′s in October.

I’m happy to report I will be back in to the Senior Market for 2012! With an enthusiastic vengeance. :) Many more examples to come, but, let’s start with beautiful Rachel. She was a joy to work with and a genuine great girl! I wish her much luck in the future…

This little baby, this gift from God.  As many of you know, Marc and I have been on an adoption journey.  We now have our “complete” family and I couldn’t be happier…or more busy. :) I’m starting to come out of the baby fog and get back in to a routine and I have a lot to catch up on… in the next few weeks I will be finishing up some editing, but, more importantly, cuddling with the sweetest boys a mother could ask for.

I am so thankful. Thankful for this blessing. Thankful for patient clients (i love you guys). Thankful for a husband who pulls 100% for me….

I wanted to share a few images – (with the entire story of our adoption to come soon). Meet our sweet Evan. Born Oct. 26th – 6 pounds 3 ounces.

one minute old. :)

sweet brothers.

~ Day in the Life sessions are some of my favorite sessions to photograph.  I’m there all day…lunch, nap, play time, etc… and I document everything. :)

Honestly, wedding season has kicked in full speed and I’ve been focused on work.  Sadly, my poor blog is neglected, yet again…. I’m going to merge a few sessions in to one in an attempt to catch up! :)

Please welcome the following newborns in to this world: Kate (my gorgeous niece), Ashe, Ally, and Colton. These sessions were within the past month…. Sweet babies and two of them – redheads! I love it!!!

P.S. – if you want to follow me on facebook… be my friend. :) I’m consistent with updating my sessions and schedule on there.  It’s a little easier than blogging….lol.

KATE – isn’t she lovely?

Ashe – love all the red hair!

Ally – pretty in pink.

Colton – the fighter.

Buna asked if I would be up for doing a shoot that included horses… um, yes. :) She is preparing for a show later this year and needed photos for her advertising.

Despite suffering from countless bug bites… I thoroughly enjoyed this session.  Aren’t these horses beautiful?
