Mini Beach Session

My husband & I went to the river the other day with boys to play in the sun and sand. It was a beautiful day. The Lord just blesses in amazing ways. I ended up shooting an impromtu beach session with this sweet little girl who will be celebrating her birthday next month {and her little sister}. Their mama was so nice and easy to talk to. The girls, as you will see, were just the cutest things. I am so thankful I met them; they just blessed my day.

We Three

Good Morning! I have an exciting new photo shoot to share with you. I travelled to Virginia yesterday to do a little collaboration project with 2 very talented ladies, Gloria and Emily. Emily is my sister-in-law's sister. She is a hair & make-up artist working in the Suffolk area. Emily is so lovely and has amazing ideas for versatile looks and an eye for fashion. My SIL, Jessica, introduced both of us to Gloria who is an accomplished jewelry designer. She has the most beautiful pieces that she has made with her own hands.
We three, Emily, Gloria, and I, thought it would be fun to do a photo shoot with some models. Emily was so kind to bring her friends to model for us. Gloria picked out some of her favorite pieces and you will see them here. Photographing these ladies was so much fun. The weather was not too hot with a few perfectly shaded areas outside.
Anyway, I am not much of a writer, but I love to share good God given talent. Please contact me if you are interested in getting your hair or make-up done by Emily OR if you are interested in ordering some jewelry from Gloria, OR if you'd like to be part of a fun themed photo shoot for another collaboration. Thank you for stopping by. Check back for more images from the shoot.

Double Shot {Senior Session}

Hey y'all. Yesterday marked my first session here in North Carolina. I scheduled a Senior Session with the sweet mama of twin Senior boys. We met and instantly hit it off with some great conversation. I enjoyed so much getting to know Hunter, Chance, and their sweet mama. We had fun together on the river. The weather and the temperature outside couldn't have been better for a July afternoon. The breeze was really kickin' when we first started the shoot. I kind of feel bad that I started them out at the cove because the tide was higher than normal, but I think it was a good ice breaker for both guys. Taking your shoes off to feel the warm sand and cool water is just so relaxing. They were such good sports about following me around and trying out my ideas. It wasn't long before they were thinking up of their own poses to display their individualities. It was a great shoot. Thank you so much for this opportunity. I enjoyed our session together, I hope you like your sneak peek.
