Sneak Peek! | Raleigh Sister Portraits

If I ever get too confident in my skills as a photographer (or heck, as a grown up!)  I can always count on a tiny little person to come along and put me back in my place.  Small, adorable, innocent but this little one ran the show and let me tell you - a photographer was just not something she had planned for that day.  She really preferred to explore the garden on her own time without some nutty woman with a camera trying to get in her way.  In fact I think she would have preferred to explore the garden on her own time without some nutty woman with a camera anywhere in the PARK with her :-p  But for every bit she did not want to be in pictures her sister was happy to pick up the slack and in the end we were in hysterics the entire time.  I can’t wait to share the great shots right along with the outtakes with you Mom!

Sneak Peek! | Raleigh Mini Sessions

The 2010 spring mini sessions were a big success!  Other than some nasty viruses going around that kept a few sweet babies home we had a gorgeous day and lots of happy smiling faces.  Thank you so much to everyone that came out!

Sneak Peek! | Durham, NC Family Portraits

Another little beauty for you - look at her eyes!  She was so patient with me as we battled crowds at a Duke Gardens for her session and pushed way past the typical “1 year old session melt down point”.  I kept promising her we’d be done, and then we’d take just a few more…  But can you blame me?!

Sneak Peek! | Greensboro, NC Baby Photographer

I have had the pleasure of watching this beautiful boy grow from a sweet newborn to an even sweeter toddler even though his family has moved away from Raleigh.  I could absolutely snuggle him to pieces, enjoy your peek Momma!

Sneak Peek! | Wake Forest Family Portraits

A quick note before the cuteness - the Moore children have gotten hold of the lovely stomach virus going around and while I thought we were in the clear days later the Moore daddy was down last night.  I’m the last man standing and I have to say, Lysol in hand I still do not feel my odds are good.  I am trying to stay on top of my schedule but if there is a delay I do apologize.  I am holding tight to the thought of SPRING around the corner!

This sweet family braved a cold wind for our session and one member was a little less than thrilled to be there (which is not unusual for certain ages, cold wind or not!).  But they are such a fun bunch and I always enjoy our sessions.  Watching all these sweet kids grow up and being just a small part of their life is such a blessing to me!

Sneak Peek! | Durham Baby Portraits

Brrrr!  This winter has not been so kind to us down here in the south (although I am so so glad it’s been more kind that up in DC right now!) with the coldest winter we have had in quite some time.  We have been rescheduling many sessions but sometimes they just have to go on, despite the chilly temps.  This little beauty was only in town for a short while from Las Vegas so we made the best of a “brisk” (aka COLD) morning and did some playing.  Last time I saw her she was an adorable, chubby baby just sitting up on her own.  In just the blink of an eye she is a gorgeous toddler right on the way to being a little girl.  Loved the pigtails, she is such a doll baby.  Thanks for braving the cold girls!

2009 Premier Baby Cover & Survivor Themed Baby Shower | Raleigh Magazine Photographer

In 2009 I had the pleasure of photographing the sweet little model for Premier Baby and Child Magazine.  Below is the shot we chose for the cover, his eyes are absolutely AMAZING!  I also photographed a baby shower with a “Survivor” theme.  The shower took place on a hot, hot, HOT summer day - so much so that the gorgeous food by Premiere Catering was melting before we could get the shots we needed.  Everything was gorgeous and just so creative, see all of the photos on my Facebook page here (and hey, become a fan while you’re there! ;-).
