Canvas

Just felt like showing off my newest baby!!  This senior's grandmother ordered a lovely 16 x 20 gallery-wrapped canvas to grace her wall.  See how the picture wraps around the frame? Just lovely :)

Three times a lady....

well, little ladies that is!  How precious are these triplets?  I last photographed them at 2 months old and now they are 9 months of pure sweetness.  I tip my hat to Mom and Dad after watching all of the switching and swapping that must be done to juggle 3 little ones with only 2 sets of hands.  The math just doesn't add up!  I found myself holding both camera and a little one quite a few times but we pulled off some sweet images just the same.  How handsome does big brother, "J", look on that rock?  He found some neat tadpoles and one beloved caterpillar on our outing today too.  Thank you for allowing me to photograph your family again.  It was a pleasure!

Carolina Bride

This bride was still on an emotional high from her alma matter's big basketball win- go Tarheels!  Marrying the love of her life in the same week was just icing on the cake!!   Now if only God had given them Carolina blue skies to wed beneath instead of the stormy ones we endured.  Despite the bad weather, we got some beautiful images and big laughs chasing down her veil just before it flew into the lake!  Thanks for letting me be a part of your big day, "V" and "A".  It was an adventure!

 

Mother's Day

What a precious gift!  This grandmother, her twin daughters and 2 granddaughters joined me for a beautiful day at the lake.  One sweet little duck tried to get in on our photo shoot too! Thanks for letting me be a part of this memory, ladies.  This is the Mother's Day gift we all really want :) 

Still got it....

after all these years!  Mr. B wanted nothing more on his birthday than beautiful family portraits.  Of course, we were after the big group shots which turned out nicely but I am most touched by the bond between these 2 love birds after 37 years of marriage.  Even after 2 kids, 2 grandkids and a lot of life behind them, his eyes still sparkle when he looks at his bride.  What a beautiful gift to their children.  I absolutely LOVE the shot of baby "C" playing with his mustache while Grandma gets a big laugh out of the whole scene.  It was a pleasure working with your family.

Southern Belles

Aren't these cousins cute? They had a hard time keeping a straight face with the other watching during the photo shoot.  Some of those chuckles made for great shots too!  Hope you enjoy the pics, "C" and "M".  You are two very charming Southern belles ;)

Bella

By definition, a muse is "the source of an artist's inspiration".  Miss K fit the bill perfectly.  In just one shoot, we got a wonderful mix of classic, vintage images and vibrant,modern ones.  I couldn't be more pleased with the final results.  The wind in her hair, the sparkle in her green eyes, the delight in her laugh....truly beautiful.
