Raleigh family photographer
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!!! =)
Little man “H” turns 1! | Raleigh child & family photographer
Another one of my sweet newborns has just turned one! It seems like time is just flying by lately. Look at this handsome little fellow and his beautiful family. I used to work with his Dad and love the opportunity to get to catch up with him during our photo shoots together. They are such a fun family and I’ve loved getting the opportunity to watch their family grow. We spent a gorgeous Saturday morning down at Yates Mill park to capture this important milestone. This little man has just learned to walk so trying to capture him still was a bit of a challenge, but when I did he was always flashing the biggest, sweetest smile. I could feel myself smiling behind the camera just looking at him. It’s contagious! Of course big sister has a beautiful smile as well, it just took a little while for her to warm up to me. She was a great helper though getting her brother to laugh and help him walk around. She is definitely enjoying being a big sister. Thanks so much for coming to see me “H” family. It was great getting to see you all again and see how big the little ones have gotten. Enjoy your sneak peek!
Raleigh fall mini-sessions – The “K” family
Look at these little cuties! From the moment I saw them get out of the car, I knew we were going to have a good session. Mom picked out some super cute outfits for them and the girls rocked them! They were so cooperative and great during their session, I had so much fun with them!
