Playing around and Family Portraits

Heading to Michigan, I was so excited to see Zavier and Dante. It has been a while since I had seen Zavier and this was my first time meeting Dante in person. Dante looks just like Zavier when he was littler. It is hard to believe. They are so adorable I could eat them up! We hung out a while and played. Of course, I had to make sure to get some snaps of the whole family all together. The boys are growing so fast you don’t want to forget them at this stage! I miss you guys!

Just About Time to Say ” I DO!!!”

Katie and Brian are getting married the following weekend in Michigan. I am excited to see all their hard work planning for their wedding to come all together. We had a great time during their engagement session in the Plymouth area. They were so easy to work with; I know we are going to have a great time together on their wedding day! Here are some of my favs from the engagement session. It is always so hard to just pick a few photographs to post!

A Day in the Life of Chloe

I had the pleasure of spending some time with Chloe playing, and just doing her normal day to day routine. I then created an album “A Day in the Life of Chloe” for her mom. A photograph of the album cover is below and a few of my favorite images from the album. She is soooo cute!

Interested in your own A Day in the Life Album? Email me for more details.

A Day in the Park with Jack

I love building relationships with the people I work with to be their photographer not just once, but throughout their life. I photographed Jennifer and Dan’s wedding on October 27, 2006 in Michigan. I was so happy to meet their son Jack and do some portraits of him with his mom and dad. We headed out to a park for Jack to explore and have some fun.

Hurrahs - Fall/Winter Cover

One of my photographs was used for the cover for this season’s issue of Hurrahs - the activities and recreational guide for Holly Springs, NC. I also have some of my photographs included in the guide as well. Holly Springs has a lot of great programs available to all ages. Always glad to help out.

Courtney’s Bridal Portraits

We headed over to UNC for Courtney’s Bridal portraits. University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill has some great locations that fit in with the style that Courtney had in mind for her portraits. She also had a personal connection to the location which makes the background even more meaningful. It was hard to pick, but here are some of my favorite shots.

Yolanda & Tim’s Engagement Portraits

Yolonda and Tim were awesome to work with. They knew how to forget that I was even there and just fall into the moment during their engagement session. I LOVE the way the images from this session turned out. I have so many favorites.

They did too and decided to order the customized guestbook for their wedding day. The You and Me Guest Book is a great way to share your engagement images with your guests as well as have a wonderful keepsake from your wedding day. The You and Me Guest Book is set up to have some pages for the guest to sign interlaced with full page images. I liked it so much as well, I ordered one as the sample. Make sure to check it out when we meet.

Elegance and Architecture ~ Nikki’s Bridal Portraits

Here are some of my favorite images from Nikki’s Bridal Portrait Session. We had a wonderfully cloudy day for the most part, besides a few peaks of the sun here and there - great conditions for photography! I just have so many favorites it was hard to narrow them down. We had a great time and Nikki looked wonderful!

LA & Santa Monica

Justin and I headed to Los Angeles for a short escape to the west coast. This was my first time to LA and Santa Monica. My favorite part of the trip was renting bikes and riding them along the beach.
