Happy Family - From North Carolina to Massachusetts

While visiting here in Mass.  I had the pleasure of spending time with another couple that I have know and loved forever.  Jess (the mommy) and I worked together at Kahunaville and Craig (the daddy) and I worked together at The Boston Billiard Club.  I was also the maid of honor at their wedding.   :) During this trip I finally met their adorable sweet kiddos Tristan and Kaylee who are now besties with my own little monsters.  We are actually watching them dance to "what does the fox say?"  as I type this.  LOL Too fun!

I can't believe that it has been almost 2 years since we had our Maternity Session and now sweet Chase is almost 2 years old!  Time sure flies!  It was so nice to get to see Mike and Maggie again and to finally meet their little man during my visit to Mass.  Love you guys!!!!

Storybook Session I: Alice in Wonderland - Themed Photo Shoot Lake Norman

The storybook sessions have been in the works for quite some time now.  Years actually,  LOL.  Today Sammi Wammi and I headed out for the first of our planned Storybook photo shoots.  I am planning to do several different ones for each of my two daughters and then print out their very own storybooks once they are completed.  I have a few more ideas up my sleeve for the Alice theme but am pretty thrilled with what we have so far from today….

“You're entirely bonkers. But I'll tell you a secret. All the best people are.”  

"'I can't explain myself, I'm afraid, Sir,' said Alice, 'because I'm not myself you see.'"

“If I had a world of my own, everything would be nonsense.” 

"No use.  I forgot to tell you. I'm locked!"

“Why, sometimes I've believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast.” 

" I give myself such very good advice, but i very seldom follow it"

"Never mind all that! Get to the part where I lose my temper. "

 “Imagination is the only weapon in the war against reality.” 

“Begin at the beginning and go on till you come to the end: then stop.”

“Curiouser and curiouser!” 

"What an idea. A crazy, mad, wonderful idea."

“We're all mad here.” 

1. "This is impossible."
2. "Only if you believe it is."

“Speak English! I don’t know the meaning of half those long words, and I don’t believe you do either!” 

"I'm not crazy, my reality is just different than yours."

“Curtsy when you speak it saves time"

Spring Portraits in the Carolinas - Family

When I first met Ruby and John the had just welcomed their second child a beautiful baby girl named  Emma.  She and big sister Leila were stunningly beautiful little girls!  I had the pleasure of photographing them a couple of times since and was so excited when Ruby informed me that a new member had joined the family since our last session.  Sunday was my first time meeting sweet Baby Hutch.  He has the same amazing blue eyes as his sissies and is such a sweetie pie.  It was so wonderful to see the 5 of you and to meet your little man.   I just loved every moment!  :)
