The L Family | A Fall Family Session

I know I’ve mentioned this before, but I just love this little family! I feel so honored to be able to capture their beauty and joy every year, and this year was no exception. We had an absolutely gorgeous day. GORGEOUS. I had never been to this location before, and that can be a bit unsettling, but I totally trusted Allison, as she’s not stranger to photography (and art!!). You might remember her for being the talent behind Go Gray Artwork. She is an exceptional artist and, if you haven’t already, you should definitely check her out!!

The spot turned out to be perfect, too! See for yourself!

Mr. H | A Lifestyle Newborn Session

Where do I start with this one?! Mr. H has a special place in my heart, as he is my little nephew! Mom and Dad reached out to me during mom’s pregnancy to ask me to capture their maternity and newborn sessions…OF COURSE!! (Insert big, giant heart-eyes!!)

You might remember the gorgeous goddess-like mama-to-be from this post . Well, now their little one is with us and I was SO excited to spend some time with them and snuggle that new baby!!

Check out the precious Mr. H!

The M Family | A Family Session

While I was in North Carolina a couple months ago, I was able to meet with this sweet little family for some Christmas pictures!! I couldn’t get over their cute jammies! How adorable are they?!

The L Family | A Fall Family Session

This was my third year photographing the delightful L family. Watching their precious daughter grow is just amazing. I know I have mentioned this before, but mom is an incredible talented artist. In addition to her own shop, her work has been featured in numerous stores across the country!

Check out some of the images from this year’s session. We had such a great time!!

Mr. V | A Lifestyle Newborn Session

This family recently welcomed their second child and asked me to capture some moments with him. I was so thrilled, not only to do the session, but to meet this sweet little one and spend time with his awesome parents and big brother! They are all so sweet and I just had a great time with them!! Thank you, E family, for inviting me into your home to witness these beautiful moments!

The L Family | A Fall Family Session

I am a really lucky lady. Not only do I have a super cool job, but I get to work with amazing people. You may remember me posted about my cousin, Allison, last year. Well, I had the pleasure of working with her sweet family again this year! They chose a beautiful vineyard as their location, and it could not have been more stunning! They chose beautiful colors and little L was ALL smiles. It was such a great evening!

The S Family | A Fall Family Session

The S family invited me to their home for a family session this fall. The weather was questionable, so we moved most of the session inside. This sweet little family played games, read stories, and cuddled while I captured these moments. It was so much fun! I loved watching them interact with one another.

Family Love | A Fall Family Session

I ADORE these humans! Being presented with the opportunity to capture their amazing family made me SO happy. Do you ever have those people that come into your life and just make it BETTER? For me, that is this couple. They are genuinely wonderful people, and each one of them has a beautiful soul and so much to offer the world. Plus, check out how stunning they all are?! STAHHHHP!

Mr. E | A Lifestyle Newborn Session

This family lovingly welcomed the sweet bundle of joy back in August and I had the pleasure of photographing the beautiful Mr. E when he was just a week old. Mr. E was a dream, and big brother and sister are huge helpers. I am so thankful I was able to witness all this love!

The D Family | A Summer Family Session

Could this family be any sweeter?! We met one gorgeous summer day to capture these moments while their girls are little. As we all know, time FLIES by. It’s so great to have these memories documented. We spent some time by the water before moving to their beautiful yard. The girls were so much fun and I am so excited about the shots we were able to get!

The G Family | A Family Session

I met this wonderful family one fall day for some family pictures. I first met this mama and her girls when our oldest girls were just in kindergarten. It’s hard to believe it’s been that long! Time flies. Now, her girls have grown into beautiful young women. It was such a pleasure having the opportunity to photograph them. Enjoy this little sampling of our time together!!

For the third year in a row, I met with the lovely M family for some fall pictures. They are SUCH a wonderful family! It’s been a blast working with them each year. The kids have grown up SO much, and it was like a little preview of senior pictures when getting the individual shots! Thank you, M Family, for trusting me, once again!

Grandchildren Love | An Extended Family Session

Lauren reached out to me to photograph her sweet grandchildren over the summer. As you can imagine, trying to find a day when everyone is available can be quite a challenge. When some stars aligned and she was able to gather the three boys at the same time, we took full advantage! There were some smiles, some tears, and LOTS of animal crackers! Would we have it any other way?!

Mr. + Mrs. L . | A Fall Couples Session

Not all sessions have to be the whole family. These two chose to do a couples session last fall! They did have the kids jump in a few shots, but the majority was just the Mr. and the Mrs! We managed to squeak it in right before a storm hit, too! What a day!
