3 BROTHERS + SNOW DAY

{personal}

Charlotte, NC  personal lifestyle photography

We rarely, if ever, get snow here in Charlotte but a few weeks ago we defied the odds and the snow fairy brought our three boys a pretty heavy snow storm! I had to post a few fun pics for everyone to enjoy! ps- I’m almost certain my husband had just as much fun as our 3 wild boys!

I walked outside and found these to fishy characters…needless to say, I was covered in snowballs very quickly.

The O’Hara Family

Mooresville, NC  Family Photography

 

Finally, I’m catching up a little on all my back logged sessions and emails! 🙂 YAY!!!

PS- this is very exciting news for most of you…I am going to sit down today and FINALLY create a photography facebook page. {get pumped!} this is a super gynormous deal for me, so wish me luck!!! And be on the look out!! xo

now, on to this irresistibly cute family….

I have been so excited for a while to finally get my hands on this little Stella…I watched through facebook her homecoming from the hospital and her weekly snapshots. Each one a little more hair, a new bow and a more precious little girl– if that’s possible. Meghan and her husband Micheal live in Columbia, SC so I am even more honored to be able to capture their new little family as it grows! Meghan and I went to high school together, so I knew we would have fun! The sad news is…Stella had just started her very first little sickness, and smiles were not so easy to come by. (as they are normally!) Magically towards the end we got her excited and she beamed up at us for a few moments! YAY! We did have the most amazing weather, beautiful sun beams to match this beautiful family! Enjoy!!!

The Roan Family

Charlotte, NC  Family & Group Photography

 

A few weeks ago I met the adorable Jessica, she was referred to me through a friend to do her family photos of her new lil nugget and her tiny lil tot man— it went perfectly. Her family is precious and we had such a fun time romping and rolling around their yard and home. A week later she called and asked me to try to make it work for another session in another week…her sweet sister was coming in town with her family.  So, I was blessed to photograph Jessica and her family twice in a few weeks time—it was fantastic. I’m pretty sure if she lived closer, we’d be having wine daily and letting our lil boys frolic. Jessica’s sister, Tiffany, and her sweet family were just as wonderful. They made my “job” {well, if you want to call it that} very easy. They played and I captured every second. They have 2 lil girls that are behaved so perfectly and showed off their fun personalities at the same time. I am so glad we got lots of sparkly shots of the 4 cousins together!! Enjoy!!

Duncan + Chelsea

Davidson, NC  Lifestyle Photography

 

Chelsea and I chatted quite a few months back about setting up a session for her engagement photos with her fiance Duncan…and many months later (crazy fall & Christmas sessions had already filled the books), we finally meet!! Of course we had great weather for a few days, then the day of our session it was freezing and gloomy! But they rocked it and were such troopers the entire time.  These two have such a beautiful life ahead of them, and I am so happy to share some of their love with you! Their wedding is this Fall up in New York…I look forward to seeing lots of gorgeous photos from their big day! Enjoy!!!!

Braxton {6 months} + his big family

Shelby, NC  Family & Group Photography

 

I enjoyed an afternoon at Bridges BBQ in Shelby, NC before we started our awesome session in downtown Shelby a few days ago…and I am sure it was worth every calorie and every moment in the cold. Great BBQ (hushpuppies & sweet tea too), and awesome photos of a wonderful family. I could’ve stayed there for  10 days and had new, cool locations to shoot the whole time! I would never get bored there! Hillary has the sweetest lil 6 month, Braxton and he was such a trooper to party in the cold with us. We captured her whole family…including her mom and dad & her sister and brother-in-law. We laughed and froze…hope you enjoy!!

The Spivey Divas

May 28, 2012: Cornelius, NC photographer  

{Lifestyle Session}

 

These cute lil Spivey girls made my afternoon (as usual). They always have the cutest outfits and the best lil diva poses! I keep having to remind them to play…not to pose like supermodels the entire time! Ella is about to be FOUR so she had her own fashion photo shoot, and Lily just turned ONE so she had an adorable outfit change as well. We had a ball and I could probably photograph these girls all day everyday…so much fun! Hope you enjoy…
