We had a great time driving around and shooting their engagement session. I have to admit that I’m disappointed I won’t have the pleasure of shooting their wedding… I am booked for their date. But hey! At least, they drove from Charlotte to have these pics done. :)

She is representing Western North Carolina in the statewide Mrs. NC on June 12th. I shot Kelsey’s wedding last year and just adore her! I’m attaching two headshots from our session this past weekend. She only needs a black and white headshot, so nothing too creative… and yet she’s so pretty!

I would encourage local businesses to sponsor Kelsey; especially those from Marion, NC. I’m a proud sponsor. :) If you would like information, please e-mail me and I’ll send you the forms.

It happens too fast and I can’t keep up. ;)

Jessica has grown before my eyes and I just adore her. Once again, thank you Sara for making the trip from Atlanta… I’m so glad I’ll be coming to you for her one year! I’m hoping for gorgeous Georgia weather.

Here are a few from our session this weekend. Smiles!

I couldn’t help myself… i had to show this “not so happy” shot. 

i love Jessica’s big eyes! So easy to photograph.

My sister is such a good mommy. I can’t wait to get together again…. wish May would get here sooner.

Of course, I took just a couple hundred pics of him… here are a few. Miss you Bennett.

He is the sweetest little guy! He let me hold him last night. Almost makes me want another baby…almost. ;) At least I get to live vicariously through my clients. Enjoy!

Morgan and I met last year and connected right away! I can’t believe the wedding is in just 5 weeks. I also love Raleigh weddings! We shot her bridal portraits at Edenton First Methodist. Having shot there in the past, i knew I would love the location…. :)

Morgan (happily) gave me permission to post a few of her pics from the session.

I love this part of the church….

This shot of the bus is kinda funny…. the kids were so excited to see Morgan. They were yelling out the windows at her. :)

soooo pretty!

I love shooting newborn sessions when the babies are so fresh and new. Stephen is 4 days old and sleepy just like I love them! I think he only cried once during our session and that was due to a diaper change. :) Enjoy the sneak peek! 

i love mommy moments…

I love it when women are comfortable with their bodies… if only I could get there… :) anyways… there are a few slots left for this boudoir get together in Charlotte, NC. If you are interested and would like more information please e-mail me! All my best!

I’ve been trying to get to Winston-Salem for this session for sometime now…but, all this darn snow and ice??? I know I’ve had to reschedule quite a few clients and I appreciate everyone juggling their schedules! :)

Anyway, meet little Druve. I loved his happy personality and trademark crooked smile. Apparently, he smiles just like his daddy!  When I arrived, he was down for his nap, which is great….because, babies usually wake up happy. Dhruv was no exception to this! I can’t wait to see this sweetie again!

These first few pics… we were getting to know eachother….the smiles kick in soon!

OMG! I love this hair!!! and look at those lips!
