Family Photographer - Charlotte and Noda

 One of my absolute favorite parts of being a Family Photographer is getting to work with the same Families and getting to watch their children grow!  Walking into a home and seeing all the memories that I helped create covering the walls of their homes fills my heart with so much joy! I have been photographing Preston, or "Mister P" as I like to call him since he was an itty, bitty Newborn Baby.  I was so excited to receive the most recent message from his moms letting me know that it was time for his SIX-year photoshoot.  We had a blast shooting a little in the Noda area, Riding the light rail (mine and Ellie's very 1st time), and then getting some great shots around uptown.  Little man never fails to bring it to every shoot.  The fact that the camera adores him does not hurt.  Sandra and Nikki as always thank you for choosing me to help document these moments in your and Preston's lives.  I am so happy to be your historian.  Love you guys!  I hope you enjoy this sneak preview.  We have soooooo many more!!!

Travel Photographer - Senior Portraits in the Orchard

This weekend was amazing!  I flew to Massachusettes to photograph my BFF's daughter for her Senior Portraits!  We did her shoot at Art in the Orchard which was so cool but nothing compared to how BEAUTIFUL my model is! Dani I had a blast with you guys and hope you love these as much as I do!  I have SO many more and can not wait to share them with you.  You are stunning inside and out and I know your parents are so incredibly proud of you!  Love you chica!  xoxo

Extended Family Portraits - 2021 Family Vacation

 Eight years ago I had the pleasure of photographing three generations as they enjoyed a family vacation together.  As many of you know I LOVE generational shoots!  I think they are so incredibly special and result in some of the MOST precious memories.  I was beyond thrilled to receive a call from the family Mattriach recently asking if I could do an updated shoot as they would be all together at the Lake in Mooresville this month.  I really enjoyed seeing them all and could not believe how big the kiddos have grown.  We already have plans for the next family reunion next year and I can not wait!  Maureen, and crew...  here is your sneak peek along with a couple of the flashbacks.  <3

Prestons five Year Portraits

Gosh!  How quickly time flies.  This little man was only days old the 1st time I met him for his newborn session.  Now he is FIVE years old!  I absolutely love this guy and his family.  Our sessions are always a blast and man does the camera love him!  Here are just a few of my favorites from this past weekend...

Lake Norman Senior Portraits

This past weekend I had the pleasure of working with this stunning young lady to capture her Senior Portraits.  It was so much fun chatting with her and catching up with her mom who was a friend of mine on Lake Norman Mommies once upon a time.  I can't believe how quickly time has passed!  Congratulations Matigan on your last year in High School!   

Babys 1st Birthday - Smash Cake

 I can not believe that this little girl is already a year old!  It feels like we were doing her newborn photoshoot just the other day!  She is so sweet and as you can see the camera just loves her.  Matt and Courtney, Thank you for choosing me to document this beautiful little girl's 1st year! Looking forward to many years to come!  Happy Birthday sweet peanut!
