Extended Family shoot at North Harbor - Lake Norman

I was thrilled when Karen, one of my favorite clients asked me if I could be available to do an extended family photo shoot.  A family member would be getting married the next day and the rehearsal dinner the night before would be the 1st time in a very long time that the entire family would be together including 2 of my favorite little boys Cole and Jake.  To add icing on the cake the dinner was going to be at the North Harbor Club in Davidson which is such a beautiful and fun place to do portraits.  I had a lot of fun with this crew.  I love our group shots but some of the outtakes may even be my favs. They are hysterical!  Congratulations Alex and Devon!  I hope your big day today is amazing!!!

Childrens Photographer - Charlotte NC

I got to see my little buddy Preston this weekend.  He was one of my sweet baby planner babies and I can not believe how much he has changed since his 1 year photo shoot just 6 months ago!  I am loving the beautiful blonde curls!  The heart melting smile is the same though!  I love this little guy and his awesome mommies too!  I am so glad they decided to do an 18 month session to capture how quickly this fella is changing!  I am already looking forward to next time!  Here are just a few favs.  As usual I have LOTS more that I am so excited to show you!

Advice for Parents and GrandParents

I posted this back in 2013 and feel so strongly that it needs to be repeated....


PSA of the Day….  GET IN THE PICTURES WITH YOUR CHILDREN!

You will only regret the times that you did not.
Your little ones do not care if your having a good hair day or if your nails are perfectly manicured.
They do not care if you have reached your target weight or if you have wrinkles.
I guarantee that you will be so glad that you did and so will your children and grandchildren!

and one of my favorite pictures….  Me and my own mother….
