Sweet Baby {A} at 10 Days New

Published May 15, 2013 in Hickory Family Photographer, Hickory Newborn Photographer, Newborn Photography

Sweet little Miss {A} was just a perfect baby doll for her session! We didn’t even hear a peep out of her until the end. This allowed us to get through many extra set-ups…. there are more not even pictured here!  I had so much fun dressing her up, and I think her mama is going to enjoy adding some girlie things to the kids’ wardrobe too! With how sweet she was for this session, I can’t wait to watch her grow! This family has been SO patient while I rebuild my computer that I wanted to give them a […]

The {H} Family

Published April 23, 2013 in Family Photography, Hickory Family Photographer

What a pleasure it was to capture the {H} family just before a perfect Carolina spring sunset! They had requested more of a life-style session. What does that mean exactly? It means that I still scout the location for the best lighting, and make basic suggestions for where and how to sit. But beyond that, I let the family BE a family for the duration of our session. We certainly still sing songs and make funny noises to keep the kiddos happy and catch their attention, but I will keep shooting even when the posing isn’t “perfect” or when not […]

Sweet sisters {H} and {T} were such a pleasure to capture. Their beautiful eyes and curls make my job so easy! And as if they just couldn’t get any more adorable, they have the sweetest hearts too! (As evidenced by the BIG hugs I got before they left! <3 ) Beautiful, inside and out.

My {C} at SEVEN

Published April 9, 2013 in Child Photography, Green Bay Child Photographer, Hickory Child Photographer

This kid is: Imaginative Funny Speedy Loyal Tender-Hearted SEVEN And unfortunately, I have to admit, he has always gotten the short end of the stick when it comes to his photographer mama. You see, his birthday has fallen during “Auction Season” the last three years. So last year’s pictures sit in a folder (archived on an external hard drive) completely unedited. The year before? I can’t even locate any images, so I’m thinking that we didn’t even do a five year old session. Ugh. Such regrets. So not cool and completely unfair to him. But not this year… This year […]

Sweet Baby {H} at 11 days new

Published March 13, 2013 in Hickory Newborn Photographer, Newborn Photography

Sweet Baby {H} came to see me at just 11 days new! She is so perfect, with the most flawless skin. Loved being able to try out some of my new set-ups and pant sets on her… she was a wonderful little model! (And isn’t it amazing what you can make out of an old sweater?  I’m having fun creating too!) I also love the variety we were able to capture within her session… from bright and bold fun colors to creamy neutrals too! Congratulations, Mr. and Mrs. {M} and big brother {J}! She’s precious! Headbands from Christine’s Bowtique Designs, […]

Go Tigers! ~ Sneak Peek of Baby {H}

Published March 6, 2013 in Hickory Newborn Photographer, Newborn Photography, Sneak Peeks

Sweet little {H}…. Her daddy is Clemson alumni, so I have a feeling she will be seeing a lot of these colors in the years to come! Although I might suggest that Daddy start singing her some Clemson lullabies too…. as this seemed to be her least favorite set-up. 😉 It’s amazing how different angles (and headbands) can change a picture so much. One pose. Eight different images. ALL of this beautiful baby girl! p.s. GO TIGERS! 🙂

Sweet {A} at FIVE!

Published February 25, 2013 in Child Photography, Hickory Child Photographer

Learning to be flexible…. for you never know when it may snow in North Carolina! 🙂 The plan for this shoot was to be outdoors, in a cute little spring outfit. Well, Mother Nature had other plans I guess! I can ask Miss {A} to tough out the cold, but it is pretty tough to fake spring when there are flakes falling from the sky. Big. Fluffy. Snowflakes! So we enjoyed catching snowflakes on our tongues, and then took the shoot indoors…. to a different selection of outfits and backgrounds. We’ll have to make up the spring shoot another day. […]

Such a pleasure to meet little Mister {J}! You might remember his mom and dad from this fall maternity session. So of course, it is no surprise that they would have such a handsome baby boy! {J} was a good little guy for his session, and gave us the opportunity to capture both some awake and sleeping set-ups. Congratulations, Mr. and Mrs. {R}….. I can’t wait to watch your little man grow!
