Lake Norman Family Photographer - Family Portrait Wall Gallery

After an amazing extended family photo shoot I met with this sweet family for their ordering session.  Watching my clients see their images for the first time is one of the best parts of being a photographer.  

I just adore this wall gallery that we put together for her kitchen and could not resist sharing!  I can not wait to help her hang this!!!!

Lake Norman Photographer - Friday Flashback-almost seniors

Welcome to my first "Flashback Post"!  I want to start blogging some old images just for fun each week.  Let's see if I can keep up with it!  :)  Here and some images of two beautiful girls that I just love at a super cool location in Charlotte that i need to use again soon.  I just love all the textures it gives!  I can not believe that these images are almost THREE YEARS OLD!  Wow!  My girls have since graduated high school and moved on to college and if you can believe that it is somehow possible these girls have grown even more beautiful since.  Crazy huh?!  XOXO Gabby and Gia!!!  Mwah!

PS.  Check out my old logo!  :)

I am so so excited to have finished a few more sneak peaks of Gabby!  She started out a bit shy at the beginning of our session but really started to come out of her shell after just a few poses!  Gabby you are absolutely stunning!  Beautiful inside and out!!

School and Dance Photographer in Lake Norman! - Photo Flashback to DancinKids Last Year!

In anticipation for my upcoming 2nd year Photographing the talented little dancers at DancinKids in Cornelius I thought it would be fun to post some of our images from last year.  I just loved working with these sweeties and am sooooooo excited for this year!!!  Moms and Dads if you are in the Lake Norman area and looking for an amazing dance studio for your son or daughter definitely check out DancinKids.  The atmosphere is laid back and nurturing making dancing fun and they do such a great job!  Tracy and her staff are absolutely amazing! I would recommend them VERY highly!!  :)

Equestrian Portraits - A day at the stables

I am very pleased to share these images from my third "Stable Session"  my personal project to capture the special connection between horse and rider.  My subjects for this shoot were beautiful 13 year old Izzy and a gorgeous chestnut Mare named Ginger.  Thank you ladies for some great shots and a very fun equestrian photo shoot!  :)

I couldn't help snapping a couple quick shots of Izzy's little brother and sister too.  They were too cute! :)

Charlotte Birth Photographer - Baby's first Breath

For those who  have not experienced or seen a Birth Photography session the 1st images  that come to mind are ones that are quite personal and not typically  suitable for sharing. This is truly not the case with Professional Birth  Photography.

Birth  Photography is all about capturing that magical moment (as well as  those leading up to it) when your little one enters the world and takes his or her very first breath. It shows  the range of emotions that a couple goes through together on that very  important day as well as the love and connection that they have with  each other.

Having  a professional photographer present during your labor and delivery  allows both mommy and daddy to focus on the experience without having to  worry about missing an important memory or moment to document.

Being chosen to capture such an intense and amazing moment in a family’s  life is not one to be taken lightly. It is an absolute honor and  privilege and an experience that I hope to do again and again!

I am currently offering a FREE Maternity AND FREE Newborn Session with the Purchase of a Birth Session Package.  Please feel free to contact me with ANY questions that you might have. I would love to hear from you!!
