One evening when my three lil trouble makers were driving me to the crazy house…I decided to load them into the car, grabbing their shoes, jeans, swords, and my camera and head to ANYWHERE to let them run and be wild. (almost forgot to mention it was 90 degrees and I added our two 4-legged children into the car as well) Within 7 mins from exiting the car, we were already done and ready to go home for water, cortisone cream and water. Let’s just say. the least number of mosquito bites on any of us was 19—and that was me for some odd reason. But I did grab a couple fun shots of the little men to wrap up our fun summer of 2013. They are still crazy about the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and Power Rangers for now, and just hoped on the Skylanders crazy train recently. joy. Cade just turned five (WHAT? I cannot believe I am actually writing that), Jax just turned 3 and Kolt is 20 months! These boys grow and change so much…it’s so bittersweet. We are truly blessed and I am grateful for every single moment I get to spend with them!! Hope you enjoy!!
a fun game of catch up…

Charlotte, NC Family, Seniors, Newborn and Child Photography
This summer has been so so busy with amazing families and so many fun memories captured forever…but I have been working so many hours trying to get everyone their images as quickly as possible that I haven’t spent my normal amount of time on email, facebook updates and blogging. oops. I decided to stop stressing about all the small stuff and try to do a quick blog post with some images from a few August sessions that I haven’t yet blogged. Here you go…a giant page of fun and beauty!!! I’ve been so so blessed to photograph every single one of these friends!
First up…
Sweet lil Sloan {hello world}
And now for lil Luke {hello world}…
Now for a gorgeous Mother & Father to be… Sarah & Grayson
Now for a fun morning lake session with a gorgeous family…The Webb Family (and their precious 3 blondies)
Moving on to Jennifer…2014 senior with the world at her fingertips! She’s beautiful and beyond sweet!
And last but not least…the Hall Family! beyond the obvious (gorgeous home, and family)- we had a gorgeous sunrise & a perfect day!
The Knag Family

and yep, I am a good month behind on my blogging. typical these days…I apologize. I am going to show a few amazing shots from the Knag Family session, and then my next post is going to combine a huge group of photos, all from my sessions these past few weeks. I know, I know— not fair, and not personal…but I think most people would prefer I play a quick blogging catch up and then focus on editing their gorgeous photos for their flash drives!
So, on to the Knag Family…
gorgeous mom + handsome dad = 3 stunning little girls. This family makes me smile. Looking through their images…I can’t help but smile. They are truly beautiful inside and out…and not just for show. They are real. And I have more respect for real then I ever will for those that are putting on a show to appear “perfect” to the world outside. I have learned so so much in these past few years of photography. One of the greatest things I have developed is my ability to read people, their love for one another, their relationships, and whether or not they are being real with themselves. I am so blessed to be able to grow through others and through these experiences with these incredible families. Three kids make you go crazy sometimes, and 3 girls might even be harder…but that’s what makes this world so beautiful to the Knags. Their chaos makes me feel a tad bit more “normal”…and I thank God for putting these people in my life.
ok enough sappy stuff for one night…the Knag Family rocks, just wait and you be the judge!!!
The Kastler Family

I could write a novel about this amazing family, but since I have about 4 minutes before my boys bust into my office and tackle me down to the kitchen for snacks…I will keep it short. Susan and Chris have been there for me since the very beginning of my photography journey, supporting me 100% all along the way. And even better…motivating me and lifting me up time and time again. They have constantly whispered in my ear that I have a talent and I should never sell myself for less then what I deserve. God knows, we all need more incredible people like the Kastlers in our lives. They are a beautiful family and have 3 precious little ones that keep growing up way too fast for me. I hope you enjoy their lil peek…
and last but not least…a quick shot of their Big Girl Sloan who is starting Kindergarten this year!! 🙂
Landon is ONE

Landon may be the only lil boy that I have met that didn’t want cake for his birthday…so instead of the usual cake smash session, we decided to let him play and be the little boy that he is! Reggie and Shari have been wonderful friends of my husband and me for many many years now, and I can remember laughing about even the idea of filling their calm home with wild lil kiddo footsteps. Now, a year after we did newborn photos for their perfect bundle of joy, we are capturing his vibrant big kid personality for his 1st birthday! Landon is one handsome dude, and I get so excited every time I get to photograph him. He makes my “job” a piece of cake. Happy Birthday big boy! Enjoy!!!
Ellie Claire

I may have been a lil extra excited to meet Miss Ellie Claire, mainly because I had already been sucked in by her cuteness through the photos I had seen of her, and well, her parents are just gorgeous! Ellie Claire is 6 weeks and so cuddly and perfect. Emily and Jacob had two fur babies before they brought this lil princess into the world, so she came with 2 built in body guards…or best buddies. Ellie’s nursery is gorgeous and I have a great feeling that Miss Ellie will be loved and cherished to the max. Hope you enjoy their special moments…
The Ovitsky Family {summer fun}

I have fallen head over heels for this little Anthony over the past 11 months…really, it’s true. I could easily add him into my family of boys with no hesitation. Although I am quite certain his Mommy & Daddy won’t be so willing. Lauren and Troy are always so prepared for a fun session…which makes my life that more pleasant. 🙂 This session was extra special! Lauren’s father came up from Georgia to be a part of our golf course fun. What a proud Grandfather. I could see the joy in his eyes for his only lil Grandson. These were special moments that are forever recorded for their family to enjoy for generations. Little Anthony will cherish all of these when he grows older, I can be pretty sure of that. I have a feeling Anthony may grow up to have some rockstar golf skills as well…especially if he spends his weekends with his Dad on the course. I loved this session with this sweet family and I hope you enjoy it too!
The Shait Family

I couldn’t wait to share these sweet images of another beautiful family! I love the Shait family and all the fun and real beauty they stand for! Havens is almost 3 and seriously shines from the inside out…and little Walt is almost 6 months and has changed so so much since his newborn session (wow!). Walt is such a happy lil guy, and completely easy going. Havens is adventurous and completely steals the show when she wants into a room. We had fun sweating and dodging giant mosquitoes the day of our session…but what can we expect after 2 straight months of rain and more rain. Hope you enjoy their peek….

A quick peek of some of my most favorite people on earth…the beautiful Bruce Family! I can’t ever get enough of their fun and loving family….
The Rogers Family

Ashley and Patrick just recently built a new home up in “suburbia” (said goodbye to the city life)…so we decided to have their session up at their new home and capture some of their daily life in photos! I love when families add their personal details to their sessions. I adore the Rogers family and their adorable kiddies! I couldn’t believe it had already been almost a year since I was capturing their Emmy’s first few days of life…time disappears so quickly. Bennett is 3 and Emmy is 1 any day now, and my goodness these two know how to have a good time and enjoy life. (I think they get it from their Mommy & Daddy!) Enjoy a few images from their fabulous evening of fun!!!
