The A Family Session

Her name is Rachel.



His name is Travis.



And their names are Audrey & Phoenix.







Together, they are the coolest couple and most adorable family in the world. No lie.






I've known Rachel for a couple years but we live on the opposite sides of town, so we don't get to hang much. She is so down to earth and chipper--great style too.





Her handsome hubby is a surfer pal with my handsome hubs. I guess good looks and a goofy personality are a must for surfer dudes.





We had so much fun snapping pictures on Saturday morning, that we ended up making dinner plans for that evening. It was family night and bottemless fries at Red Robbin. Our girls play great together (surprising, if you know anything about 2 yr olds and 4 yr olds).









We took pictures at the historic Yates Mill Pond. There were 4 other photographers there and dolled up families.







I might be partial, but out of all the families there, this one looked hot diggity dog, had fun, kept it simple and relaxed, and now have lovely photos of their kiddos (to look at over and over and over again--because that's what us moms do, right?).

Football Fanatics | Family Session

This family was a referral from my neighbor and the only thing she told me was: they love football. Like loooove football.







Little Connor was so cute. But man, if there is one thing that is hard to take photos of, it's little boys ages 2 and under. They do not sit still!

Morgan | First Birthday Photos

Little Miss Morgan arrived on the morning of our Enchanted Tea Party (before it was all setup) and she was just as cute as can be. She is turning one this fall, and of course every 1 yr old needs a cute photo for their first birthday party invitations!



I love her chubby cheeks. And her red mary janes. Very cute.

Our Enchanted Tea Party

A certain towhead is so very much into tea parties and picnics lately.



The sky is carolina blue. And the grass still green and cool. We've been spending all our time outdoors on a blanket.



This day, we brought the inside--outside. It was lovely.



We stayed out here all. day. long.








The canopy made for amazing light.



The Mr. and I even had a secret lunch and snooze under the canopy while the girls were in bed napping. AKA: The After Party.

Emily & Kara | Senior Picts

All things bright and beautiful have the first name Emily. And the last initial B. Right?



I'm loving all these senior girls lately. I find it fascinating how each session has had its own style and vibe. We found a few great locations for Emily and her sister Kara.



This was my first evening shoot, and I gotta say I LOVE the setting sun. Gorgeous light. I will be scheduling more of these. I had fun playing around with sun flares. Thus, my name for this photoshoot:

Saucy Sisters @ Sunset










It was so fun to meet these girls. I'm glad big sister Kara came a long and played dressup with us. There is a 3rd sister who unfortunately was out of the country doing research. We missed you!










These sisters were a referral from the H sisters. They are all best friends. Now that would be one good lookin' dinner party!






FYI, this was an "extended" senior package. Which is why we could fit in so many wardrobe & location changes (believe me, this is just a few of what is on the CD). The hardest part of editing these picts was narrowing it down--they were all lovely!



PS: This one is for you, Momma B! Haha, good times. Thanks for forcing her to take this pict...you know she'll thank you some day right?

PS: Don't forget I am leaving Nov 5 for California. If you want a jumpstart on holiday pictures, please don't wait until the last minute. I've added more bookings instead of just Saturdays, so if you want to do a weekday at 5pm let me know.
