Easton in all his cuteness! Part 1 | Rutherfordton, NC Baby Photographer

Oh my goodness! What a fun session! I drive by their farm everyday and have often thought how fun it would be to do a session there! How lucky was I when this sweet little boy was born and I was asked to photograph his first year! I love when families hire me to do the whole year of pictures! I can really get to know them well and by the end of the year, I feel like I am photographing friends!!

This session was so cool…they have a unique farm…all the traditional stuff (except cows), but tons of untraditional stuff! Let’s see…we had Tom the turkey, a precious baby donkey that just wanted loving, peacocks everywhere, chickens too, buffalo (yeah, I didn’t go close to them!), a baby bunny, and tons of other critters that we didn’t get time to play with! I felt like we did the session at a petting zoo!

Today…you get the first half of the session! Tomorrow…the Cake Smash!!

Miss Allie is One! | Columbus, NC Baby Photographer

Seriously…this baby melts my heart. If the Lord blesses me with another…I pray it has chubby legs just like hers! This baby has a special place in my heart! I did her Mom’s maternity session; I was there at her birth; she was my first newborn in studio; and a favorite from her 6 month old session! She has grown so fast! I just can’t believe when a year is up…I realize how quickly it is gone! I thank God that He allows me to do this for a living! What a blessing it is!

Emery | Tryon, NC Senior Session

Oh what fun we had…trotting all over town finding cool spots to shoot in…changing clothes…changing hair…changing our minds…yeah, we are girls you know. I love Senior Sessions! This girl really has a special place in my heart…I have know her forever…she is my cousin after all…yet, I feel I really have just recently gotten to know her. She is blossoming into such a cool young woman who is gifted in so many ways. What strikes me most is her heart for God. This girl loves Jesus and she exudes that love on those around her. I am so honored not only to know her, but to be related to her too!

ScottLynn has arrived!! | Tryon, NC Newborn Family Photographer

Newborns are so precious! I forgot how much fun it is to go into a family’s home to take pictures of their new creation. I have worked in my studio the last year doing pics of these sweet little miracles from the Lord, but I am glad to be back to my roots…where I am able to come into someone’s home and really capture the essence of their new family.

Blessed | Rutherfordton, NC Make A Wish Session

It all started a few months ago. I was working on my blog and noticed a comment waiting for approval. I had not received the email saying it was there…I kinda just stumbled on it. The email was from Amanda at Children’s Wish Foundation asking if I would be willing to do a photo session of a little girl getting her wish revealed. I was honored to do be there and would have gone that day had it been ready!

I was so blessed to meet this sweet girl last week. After being diagnosed with cancer 2 years ago that caused her to loose her kidney, McKenzie was able to have her wish come true. She wanted a room makeover! What a precious young girl! She and her family have undergone the tremendous struggle that comes with having a child that is sick. Yet, when I met them, they seemed like any other normal family. A beautiful girl who just radiated happiness from this amazing wish that was granted for her! McKenzie’s room was beautiful and I know she is so happy to have it done!!

You can see McKenzie’s Caring Bridge site here…and as always, helping organization’s like Children’s Wish Foundation helps children like McKenzie cope during the hard times!

I can not wait to come back to do family pics!! Please pray for this family that McKenzie continues to do well and for her cousin who has been diagnosed with leukemia.
