Oh how we love sisters!  Little “SG” is the baby posing at the top of the blog and now she is a great big sister to little “L”!   We met at Old Salem on a lovely morning, for some photography fun and no one was disappointed.  I have adored this family from the moment we all met many years ago, and this day was no exception!  I am so honored to see the “P” family every 3 months to capture the milestones of these sweet girls in the Watch Me Grow plan.  (Click here to see their last session!)

This time, we smelled flowers, rode in my ‘new’ old wagon, played peek-a-boo at my favorite yellow barn at Old Salem. Could there be a better day?  I am so thankful to get to join in with these cuties whenever I can!  Thank you for inviting me along, P Family!

I’m excited about the Ardmore Home and Garden Tour this Saturday, May 5th!  Its no secret that I love Ardmore, so much so that I named my photography business after it.  This neighborhood is such a lovely place to call home, with sidewalks on every streets, friendly neighbors, and adorable older homes. Some of my favorite photography sessions have taken place in Miller Park, on tree-lined streets in the fall, or cottages of Ardmore’s residents.  This Saturday, I’ll be giving a portrait to session to one lucky person on the home tour!  All you have to do is participate in the tour and your name will be entered to win a free portrait session.  What better way to spend a beautiful Saturday than touring Ardmore’s homes and gardens. I hope you’ll join me!

It was such a beautiful spring morning at Graylyn and Reynolda House field. Running through the field full of buttercups was the perfect way to end our shoot! ‘L’s mom brought a few different adorable dresses and necklaces given by dear family members. I had such a wonderful time with the P family and look forward to seeing them again!

Samantha will be graduating WFU this year and what a perfect way to commemorate the occasion, a photo session on campus at her most memorable places! Samantha chose several places that she was most fond of; the dance studio, Davis Field, chapel, quad, Starbucks and TriDelta House.

We had such a fun time incorporating the university she loves so much into her images on this beautiful early evening! The light was absolutely perfect! I’m so glad her family was in town during our shoot, we were able to get lots of fun family and sister shots.  I had such  hard time narrowing my choices down 🙂 I’m very excited to share the gallery with Samantha soon!

I was so excited to hear the news of baby “AK’s” arrival.  During our newborn session, this beautiful little girl was either smiling or sleeping soundly for her adoring parents. I just loved spending the afternoon with this little girl and her parents.  The “W” family could not have been happier to welcome their daughter home. I was honored to capture the joy of these first days as a family of 3.

It was such a beautiful morning together and quite an adventure exploring our new favorite location, absolutely perfect for Miss ‘S’ First Year photos! I can’t believe a year has gone by already! As our Watch Me Grow Plan nears an end, I’m filled with both joy and sadness. It has been such a wonderful blessing to spend a year watching and photographing little ‘S’ grow up so fast! It is so fun to see newborns grow from a tiny, delicate, 8 lbs to a crawling, walking, smiling, laughing, teeth-having, nearly talking little person and to capture that season in a family’s life.  It is such a beautiful time! I’ll really miss seeing Little ‘S’, mom and dad every 3 months. Look over our sessions for a snapshot of Little Miss ‘S’ first year with her loving parents.

I had such a great time at this session! Little “E” loved running around, playing Peek-A-Boo, and so did I! There is so much love in this family, I felt very  lucky to have been a part of it. Constantly hugging, loving and laughing! Thank you “W”s! ImageImageImageImage

This post is bittersweet, since little “N” officially graduated from the Watch Me Grow plan. I’ll definitely miss seeing him and his parents every 3 months.  Our newborn, 3, and  6 month sessions together have been such a joy.  This one year session at Graylyn, was no exception. Little “N” was his usual happy self, exploring the grounds with his mom and day in the beautiful spring weather.  Thank you to the “W” family for a wonderful year!

Our day in the field was absolutely beautiful and such a joy for me! The “M” family has been great friends of ours for years and I was honored to be a part of welcoming their third daughter, little “K”, into the world. Not only was this occasion about welcoming another little one into their beautiful family, but also a birthday celebration for their oldest, Miss “M”, who has just turned 6. They grow up so fast! To make this session really standout, their mother found this gorgeous antique pram stroller at an estate sale for me. It adds such a lovely heirloom quality to the images, I can’t wait to use it again!





The girls had a great time with their new little sister and were so fun to photograph. Photography to me is always about capturing those precious moments for a family to have forever and we really accomplished that with this wonderful family! I’m so grateful to have the “M”s in our lives and I look forward to photographing their family for years to come!
