Precious Miss {E} came to visit me when she was just 13 days new, and she was just the best little girl for her session! She was so patient and willing to let me get her fingers and chin “just right.” Just love her long fingers and flawless skin. Loved her mama’s sense of style in mixing up textures, and so glad we even got to use {E} as a model to help show off her daddy’s clothing line!

Such a pleasure to spend a morning with baby {J}, his big sister {C} and his mom, dad, and auntie! And let me tell you, he is the luckiest little guy, because he has one of the best big sisters I know! Miss {C} did an AWESOME job of letting me be particular with posing her for their sibling shots. I’m sure with these two sweet peas around, there was lots of JOY this Christmas. (And hopefully maybe a silent night, too! 😉  )

One of the sweetest miracles I’ve had the opportunity to photograph… Little Miss {MK} is simply precious! I was honored to be able to partner with her uncle of Carolina Portrait Designs in capturing her newborn sessions since she was too little to travel to his studio.  While I don’t have a full session’s worth of images to share, there were still many I fell in love with. So much meaning and thought went into planning this shoot. The embroidered grey wrap/scarf belonged to {MK}’s great-grandmother, her namesake. And the ivory bonnet? It is the same one her mommy wore […]

Sweet Miss {B}…. I am SO glad that I had the opportunity to fly back and take your newborn pictures! I have so enjoyed getting to know your family the last couple of years. Doesn’t seem all that long ago that we were taking one of your big sister’s newborn pictures! I love watching all of you grow, and can’t wait to see the awesome bond you are going to have with your big sisters! All of the headbands, tiebacks, sashes, etc. used in this session were handmade by Christine’s Bowtique. Please check out her work. I assure you, you […]

Sweet little miss {C} was just a pleasure to photograph! She gave me some great smiles and let me be picky about posing her…. just a dream baby! And her Mommy and Daddy? They take a pretty good picture too! Such an honor to be capture some beautiful first family portraits for them… <3

Mister {Z} was an awesome little sleeper at just seven days new! He thoroughly rocked his session allowing us to squeeze in a few extra set-ups. 🙂 It is such an honor to capture these early moments for these families… one I don’t take likely. Grateful for the opportunity to do what I love!

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 […]

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, […]

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! 🙂

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!

The photo shoot that has truly been nine months in the making! The brainstorming and logistics began back in June when I first learned the {P} family was expecting again. Would I really be able to wing a shoot by air without all of my “stuff”? Well, the answer was a resounding yes! Through many texted pics back and forth about supplies, phone calls, and e-mails, we pulled it off! Such an enjoyable day making many of our ideas come to life. As I mentioned in yesterday’s post, this momma has a passion for pictures. I hope I did her […]

Such an honor to be invited back home to help welcome this little one into her family! This mama has a passion for pictures that rivals mine, so I have lots of fun images to show you over the next couple of days! The barren trees and snow provided such a beautiful backdrop for this sweet image… I just love the tender moment captured here. Definitely one of my favorites from this session. p.s. I promise we only had baby {B} outside (on her deck) for a just a minute! All posing was done inside…with just a quick step out […]
