baby ryan

This little would be Christmas baby decided to take a few extra days.  Although weighing in at BIG (ouch!), he is still the cutest little thing in his parents’ eyes, most definitely snuggly and precious and full of love.  I got my baby fix in, and now I want more!  I cannot resist the tiny toes and all those itty bitty baby parts, but this child had the sweetest little mouth I have ever seen.  I can’t wait to give him more kisses and snuggles.  Ah, baby love!

Another beautiful couple at the gorgeous Moonstone Manor.  Everything about this wedding seemed fated and perfect down to the tres cool moonstone engagement ring this tres cool man picked out for his incredibly beautiful bride.  Sweet emotion of this couple was apparent to me.  Lots of love here!

This ridiculously lovely girl is also ridiculously talented, smart and sweet.  I do not have enough nice words in my vocabulary to truly do justice in this tiny paragraph to say how much I love her.  She’s just wonderful.  My former bride and current friend, Katie Smith is a master at design and image making.

The gorgeous setting at Ironstone Spring Farm, her family home, was perfect for her shoot.  If you are getting married, having a baby or need a new look for your biz, you MUST check her out at Katie Smith Design. Her style is classy, feminine and lovely.  As a SCAD grad, her irresistable southern charm and sensibilites are apparent in everything she does.  And as a former southern girl myself, I am completely drawn to her style.

This sweet little girl is obviously the apple of her daddy’s eye, and there is no doubt that she will have him wrapped around her teeny little finger for a very long time.  Those big blue eyes melt your heart.  I have to admit, I succumbed.  She is an angel.

This sweet baby is due on Christmas Eve, and there could be no better gift for these two very dear friends of mine.  I can’t wait to meet this sweet child, and I know that Ali and Dave are going to be the best mom and dad ever.  I love them, and I already love this kid.

Happy Thanksgiving!

‘Tis the season for family!  Families are precious and these images will stay in their homes and their hearts forever. My hope for you is that you are surrounded by people who love you and that your heart is safe.  May your friends be family, and may your family be friends.  Happy Thanksgiving!

Dana is so sweet and cute, and she is exactly what this shy guy needs.  Although, I must say that I was only TOLD he would be shy.  My camera didn’t think so!  I just know that whatever the day, I know it’s going to be a wonderful shoot when a kayak is involved.  We were out at the end of the day, when the sun was barely hanging on to the evening sky, and the light was so sweet and warm.  There was no way I wasn’t going to get great shots.

Just a fun, sweet photoshoot for a fun, sweet couple–no special reason at all.  I just love that!  It’s exactly the kind of thing we always wish we had more of when we look back.  And it was so much fun!

These darling boys had me chasing them all over the playground, and it was worth every minute of their smiles.  Family photos are a favorite for me, and this particular family has me charmed.  I’ve been taking their pictures since their birth announcements, and they just keep getting cuter and cuter.

Simple, romantic and sweet, every bit of this tasteful affair.  I just loved going through these photos.  These two are the kind of couple you just want to be like.  They are darling and gorgeous, and I can’t wait to see how their family grows!
