Happy 1st Birthday “P” | Raleigh baby photographer
Another baby planner is a year old. This sweet pea is adorable with a capital “A”. She’s always Ms. Serious when she comes to see me, but she still is gorgeous and so photogenic! I did finally find the way to her heart though with this session – doughnuts! Mom and Dad have been doing donuts for her monthly pictures so we finished up our session at Krispy Kreme with 12 doughnuts to celebrate her birthday. Well we got to see some smiles then =)
Happy Birthday “P” – it has been so great getting to watch you grow up and capture these milestones.
I spent the morning with our dear, close friends the Bigelow family. We’re so lucky to have them in our lives and I’m honored that they ask me to capture their family portraits. It was a bit warm and sticky out this morning, but the little ones were great and had fun running around exploring and playing. They are such a sweet family and you can see the love they have for each other. Thanks so much for sharing your sweet family with me today, and for helping us celebrate our baby girl’s 3rd birthday! Love you guys!!
Giggles and roses… that pretty much summarizes my evening Saturday. I met with our good friends and their little girl “N”. We played hide and seek, tag, and had lots of tickles. “N” was definitely full of smiles, I just had to run to try and catch them. Definitely got a work out in.
I was so excited when mom contacted me to let me know she was expecting, and that she wanted to do a gender reveal shoot. This family was one of my very first clients and they have been with me along my photography journey. Even more importantly I’ve been along with them for their journey into parenthood, and am so honored to be able to watch their family grow again. I’ve been dying to a gender reveal shoot like this, but every time I have one set up someone always ends up peeking. Originally we scheduled this shoot for tomorrow, but the weather did not look very good so we decided to do it tonight because mom didn’t think they could go without peeking if we had to re-schedule until next weekend. I’m so glad we were able to do it. It was so exciting to watch this special moment unfold and see the raw emotion. I can’t explain it but it felt amazing to watch so I can’t imagine what it felt like for them. Judging by their pictures I think it’s safe to say they are ecstatic, and shocked. They both thought it was going to be a boy. I’m so happy for your “P” family, thank you from the bottom of my heart for trusting me with your family and sharing these moments with me. I can’t wait to meet your baby girl =)
But I don’t want a little sister, I wanted a little brother!!! =)
Easter mini-sessions – “M” & “C” – Raleigh child photographer
Look at these two beauties. “M” & “C” are both celebrating birthdays. “C” just turned 1 and “M” will be turning 4 soon. We took the opportunity to take some pictures to help mark the occasion. The weather wasn’t exactly pleasant, and poor “C” was not feeling well. We made the best of it though. “M” was so great with the bunny. She was quite, and gentle and loving – enough so that the bunny just fell asleep in her lap. She took such good care of it. She also helped try to get smiles out her baby sister. Such sweet girls!
