Spring Love | Couple | Fayetteville, NC Photographer

This couple ... HOLY CUTENESS ALERT! She contacted me because she wanted a few images of her and her boyfriend before he headed overseas. They're high school sweethearts and wow, the love they share for each other just radiated off of them. I left this session happier than when I arrived because of the two of them! <3


They were even willing to brave the frigid spring air (meaning they didn't mind cuddling closer to one another) ;) and they climbed inside a tree/bush thingy for me to get awesome sun flare. haha!



The above shot is from my wonderful Russian made Helio 35mm ... it is seriously my favorite lens to shoot when I have couples in love! You should see this ENGAGEMENT session I shot a few years ago at the same location and with same lens! ;)

Safe travels and hope to see y'all with an engagement session soon??? ;)

Clover 1 Year Birthday | Mini Special | Fayetteville, NC Photographer

Y'all, I've been wanting to do clover sessions for the longest time and I finally decided to do them this year since I'll be moving to the desert this summer. The first person to book was a momma of the little boy that was born on St. Patrick's Day and I was there for his FIRST 48 images in the hospital.

When his momma said she wanted to do a "spaghetti smash" for his first birthday instead of a cake smash ... I was ALLLLLLL for it! Especially for this Italian/Irish baby boy!


Of course, we had to get a few clean shots of him and his brother. Check out all that clover! Folks, man, if you haven't booked a clover session yet... you NEED to! this location is freaking amazing!


It doesn't have to be St. Patrick or Irish themed ... let's just book a session in the clovers! I <3 them if you can't tell! I'm an Irish girl at heart and love the clover more than I love a tulip ... and I love tulips!

But more about this spaghetti smash! Shirtless and decked in a plaid bowtie ... he went to town in that spaghetti! <3 He was sooooo cute. I got WAY too many images to narrow down for mom and dad to choose from but he was amazing. He was enjoying his food, then he'd let out a little whine, and then eat some more. Man, he loves him some spaghetti!




 The mess afterwards was priceless! A successful first for me, a spaghetti smash perfection!

Full of Life | Family | Fayetteville, NC Photographer

I am not going to lie ... when the momma of these beautiful children contacted me for a session, I was over the moon thrilled! They are the cutest kids, like ever, and that's saying a lot because I see cute kids all the time! ;)


She wanted cute and candid shots of the children all to gather and some by themselves. She kept telling me, "I'm not too worried about my girls, my boy though, he won't sit still at all." I mean, really what 2 year old does sit still? I know my 2 year old doesn't sit still. ;) But she wasn't lying, he is just as rambunctious as my little one. But wow, his personality is the greatest! He was making me laugh the whole time.


And the girls!? So well behaved and just rolled with everything I put them through. I had them chasing their little brother, holding his hand, and pulling big sister duties the whole time. And they still gave me the upmost best respect any child (including my own) has ever given me. What ever mom and dad are doing, they're doing a great job raising these children.


And I mean, they obviously share a special bond and love between them that radiates off of them and inspires their children.


 

 Beautiful family, inside and outside. Thank you for choosing me as you photographer and I look forward to being your photographer in the future! <3
