Throw! Catch! Run! Tackle!  Nothing like Thanksgiving time to bring out the football in a family, right? Well, I don’t think it takes Thanksgiving to bring out the football in THIS family!  These boys were ALL about football, and it was so much fun to photograph some beautiful family moments as they played football together in beautiful […]

I am falling in love with lifestyle documentary photography more and more every day.  I mean, all the fine art portraits, dressed up and posed, are cute and beautiful and an amazing art form.  But with lifestyle documentary photography, we get to create art with the real, raw, unaffected moments of life.  For me, these […]

One of my favorite things about being a Wilmington, North Carolina photographer is the opportunity to get to know amazing families.  I’ve been photographing this family for the past two years, and what a joy it has been to get to know them!  I met little Maison when he was just a few days old.  […]

You know those old college friends that you stay connected with (or reconnect with later), and find you’ve all moved on to the next phase of life, work, and family?  Well, it’s been that way for my family and James & Audrey.  What’s even better is that James is a professional web developer, and after […]

I just love downtown Wilmington!  I feel like it’s a photographer’s dream-come-true.  So many historical buildings, beautiful architecture, the water, bridges, sunset over the North Carolina Battleship – it’s all just amazing. We headed over to downtown Wilmington with this sweet military family to get some fine art pictures with Dad in his dress blues […]

Sadie was one of the very first newborns I had the privilege of photographing.  You can see her newborn photography session from last year–she won everyone over with her mini mermaid costume!  Needless to say, I was SO excited when I found out she was coming back for her 1 year cake smash!  As expected, […]

One year ago I did my first newborn photography session.  I met Ella Grace when she was only 10 days old for her newborn pictures.  It was so much fun to have Ella back in the studio for her 1 year pictures!  My, she has GROWN!  And what a sweetie.  At the end of our […]

The best part about being a photographer is that I get to take all kinds of awesome pictures of my own baby!  But alas, he is hardly a baby anymore.  Kenny Jr. just turned 2 years old, and we definitely had to sneak in a little 2-year-old photo session!  We headed to downtown Jacksonville, NC […]

I do a lot of newborn photography here, but one of the unexpected blessings of being a newborn photographer is that I get to know these babies’ big brothers and sisters, too!  I first met Carter at his little brother’s newborn photography session, and it has been so fun getting to know this family throughout […]

I’ve been waiting to meet this little girl for a while now, and I know her family has been waiting even longer!  What a joy to welcome this new face into the family.  Her big sister is going to be great, I can already tell, and she was PERFECT during our newborn photography session!  Sometimes […]
