Last week I met Claire for the first of her 4 Sessions in our Baby Plan =) Claire is 3 months now and a total ball of sweetness and sugar! There isn’t a day I don’t love what I do and spending time with kiddos like Claire and her big sister Natalie are precisely the reason why!
It was wonderful meeting you “V” Family! I am already looking forward to seeing you again in 3 months!

Last week I bundled up all my gear and headed over to Morrisville to shoot Eva’s One Year Session.
Her Mom and I had been chatting via email for some time so it was wonderful to finally meet in person!
Eva was the happiest little girl – made all the rain and grey skies we had seem so far away….
Her Mom made both of her adorable Tu-Tu’s….

Playing with the penguins from her Winter Wonderland Birthday Party!

How adorable is this sweet smile?
Stylin’ in her Party Dress!
What First Year Session would be complete without a Cake Smash?

I had the pleasure of meeting sweet Essie and her parents a week or so ago and she couldn’t be any sweeter!!
At 15 days old she was a bit older than my usual babes, but still so tiny and absolutely perfect in every way!
Essie’s Mom had this beautiful cast made of her belly and it was then painted at her shower by her girlfriends… Isn’t this amazing?!?!?!

and now, here they are together on the outside….
She was WIDE awake for her entire session apart from about 2 minutes…. certainly she just didn’t want to miss out anything!


One of my faves from the few minutes she took a little cat nap =)

To Quincy – Thanks so much for all your patience and warmth during our session – It was so great meeting you!!

I promised you would be seeing more of sweet Travis!
After meeting Kim, John and their other kids the night Travis was born, I was excited to spend some more time with them during Travis’ Arrived Session last week!
He was such a good baby – milk coma and all =)
Hope you enjoy your sneak peak Nugent family!!!

I had the pleasure of seeing Parker a few weeks ago and photographing him at Six Months!
I haven’t seen Parker since we had shot his Newborn Session when he was just days old! Talk about “Growing Up”!!
What a big boy he is and Oh! So Handsome!!



These are two of my favorites and can’t decide which expression I liked better…. To me, they both speak volumes…


Thanks for having me capture these memories G Family!!!

Nothing excites me more than being able to capture a truly remarkable event – the birth of a child.
Travis joined the world in an un-medicated birth early Tuesday morning becoming the 5th child to a pair of awesome parents – Kim & John!
It was truly a pleasure meeting them and I am looking forward to getting to know them even better!
You’ll be seeing more of Travis in the next week, but for now feast your eyes on the details of the night (and afternoon after) he was born!
Snow on the ground at Rex that night…

Kim getting hooked up to all the monitors by her nurse – Vicky, who was AMAZING!

Kim & John planned well for lots of activities to keep their other children happy during the wait:

Simon made a paper airplane with a message for his Mom on the inside…

which she promptly gave to Dr Alvarez from Atrium OBGYN to see if it would help move things along!

Travis didn’t quite make it by midnight on the First, he arrived a few hours into the Second day of February…

Right off the bat he has his team loyalties set up =)

It is his parents team loyalties that I am worried about, so I had to do some creative photo-shopping to this photo to “fix” John’s hat – strangely it originally had some weird NY logo on it…
We think it looks much better now =)

Congrats again Nugent Family! Looking forward to seeing you in a few days!

I often get asked after I’ve posted many of my sessions whether I think people should get a canvas or a wall portrait -
my answer is always a RESOUNDING, BIG FAT – YES!!!!
Did you know that an 8×10 is not considered a Wall Portrait?
Really! It’s not. It is considered a desk print.
I’ve been looking for the perfect way to really show this – visually and today, I stumbled on fellow photographer – Amy Ro who has done this just perfectly!
For Example – Amy set up this display on her average sized mantle -

Would you be surprised to know that is an 11×14?
Read more about sizing your wall portraits on Amy’s Blog! The link is HUGELY informative!!!
I know being a New England Girl myself, I have lots of followers in her area – she lives in Rhode Island! Be sure to check her out if you are looking for a photographer in that area! I am truly wowed by her!!!

What a beautiful day today was! It is finally starting to thaw after the big freeze we have been in here in NC! However, I think even if it had still been 18 degrees out, I would have melted as soon as I saw Jackson and his big blue eyes today anyway =) How awesome is it that I get to spend my days capturing these little moments of a time that will soon be gone, but because of photography, never forgotten?
The last time we saw Jackson he was only 3 months old and although he has never been a “little” baby… he was so little compared to now at 6 months! WOW! Wow! Wow! What a big boy… sitting up, smiling, laughing, and loving anything “techy” he could get his hands on!
Without further adieu…. Jackson at 6 months =)



Now don’t let all the red fool you – he is a Tarheel baby all the way =)

I love this one….

Thanks to the “P” Family for having me into your home today to capture this milestone! Can’t wait to see you again in 3 months =)

Today I did a quick session to celebrate Savannah’s First Birthday!!! I absolutely cannot believe where the time has gone!
I know it must have been just the other day that I was lucky enough to be present for her birth and capture all of her first moments in this world….

From that itty bitty baby to this bright and happy little girl all in one year – WOW!!!

She is so mobile – crawling faster than lightning and even taking some independent steps!
I had to include this one of Gizmo who just couldn’t pass up a turn for a photograph!

We ended the session with a cake smash – Savannah was a little timid around all of the sweetness, but by the end we had quite a mess =)

It has been such a joy watching Savannah grow this year! I cannot wait to see what the next year has in store for her!!!
