With it being the week of Christmas, we were hard pressed to get in a quick session before the big day...but we did it!  This sweet grandmother and I are bible study friends.  If you haven't ever had the privilege of being in a bible study yet, I highly recommend getting involved in one.  You meet the neatest fellow believers like I have in this lovely lady.  This day I was able to meet two of her handsome grandchildren.  It was sweet to see this doting grandma care for her kiddos.  Forever bonds are really being created in the relationships she has with her grandchildren.

These two brothers are truly friends.  Their mom picked the perfect song so be sure to check out my slideshow link below.  Giggles galore with these two.  I think they just looked at each other and were cracking up.  It was super cute.  Ah, brothers.  Forever friends - I love it!

My heart warms when I look at images of this very sweet family.  We haven't known each other for ages but let me just say that I am privileged to get to call them friends.  This adorable couple are blessed with the sweetest kiddos ever.  A true photographer's dream.  Thank you so very much to this lovely bunch for letting me capture a fun day at the park with your crew.

Fun is the word I think of when I look back on the photos of this family.  I do think that fun might just always be on their agenda and I love that.  I had the pleasure to photograph this family a few years ago and was thrilled to be asked to capture these lovely people again.  It's fun to look back at our last session and see just how much these sweet girls have grown.  It's crazy how time flies.  Another highlight is the song they chose for their slideshow.  I don't often hear that a family has a "family favorite song", but apparently this family does so be sure to check out their slideshow at: https://youtu.be/M0qRy4xOJ8U

Ross Family 2019

Another year with this sweet family.  I can't believe how these little ones have grown!  Wow, I think I might just sound like my grandma.... but it's so true.  These kiddos, their parents and I spent a beautiful weekend morning exploring this unique local park and captured some special memories.  I hope these are images that will be cherished in the years to come.  Thanks so much for a fun morning of adventuring together!

Thomas

This is photo session is one that I won’t soon forget.  This sweetheart of a young man is about to embark on a new life in the United States Marine Corp.  Getting to hear his story and his upcoming adventure sure kept me occupied as we went from place to place capturing images for his senior session.  I had no idea what Security Forces are or that it could mean a whole new life of guarding a base, a nuclear facility or embassy somewhere around the world.  I heard all about Parris Island, South Carolina and Norfolk, Virginia;  all about parachuting, terminal velocity, Humvees and what life could look like for a career in the military.  This guy is such an easy talker and a great communicator.  His mom has done a fine job raising this young man to be a patriotic American... tough enough to join the Marines and at the same time he has a sweet and gentle side to him too.  All in all, it was a great session getting to know a very unique young man.  All the best on your endeavors Thomas.  We are so proud of you!

So this sweet girly is wearing an Elon shirt.  I know virtually nothing about Elon but I do know that if she’s going there it’s going to be amazing.  I’ve watched this fine young girl grow into a mature young woman that is ready to jump into the next challenge.  I loved our session together, hearing about what she hopes to do, what it’ll be like with a roommate and a dorm and all the rest of her new adventure.  Believe it or not at one point we had to completely stop the session to hold up for a bit of a downpour.  But then, in North Carolina if you just hang on for 5 minutes you’ll have a completely different weather pattern.  It worked out to be a great day with a beautiful girl.  She has a sweet heart and is really going to make an impact.  All the best!

Senior girl sessions are always a blast and this session was no different.  It's fun to hang out with a young lady like this one and hear about her dreams of life in the big city, what she hopes life will be and her plans for the future.  She's on a quest for an journey afar and it sounds like she has the opportunity for a great adventure.  We had a great variety of locations.... so many options out there for this pretty girl.  Enjoy these beautiful images below.

I always say that senior sessions are some of my favorite times for photography and this one did not disappoint.  I had a wonderful time getting to know this sweet girl better.  I love her zest for life and the direction she is headed.  I've seen this girl grow into a young woman and create an amazing babysitting program to help families that have kiddos with autism.  This is so close to my heart and something I really admire.  All the best, Erin, as you continue your journey!  I'll be excited to see where you end up!!
