• Welcome to my blog!

    Thanks for stopping by! I don't know about you, but to me it seems like the days are flying by at an alarming rate. I feel like I just do a newborn shoot and all too soon I am doing that same newborn's 1st year "cake smash" portraits. I am reminded frequently how valuable life is and how special a simple portrait can keep a memory fresh. If you are in the market for portraits, don't put it off - let me help you capture those memories now that will be a keepsake forever!

{Owen ~ Cake Smash} – Asheville Children’s Photographer

Happy Birthday, Owen! This little man is SMART! I think he had me figured out from the first moment of eye contact – he knew I was the photographer and I was going to want him to sit still! : ) His mom & dad [Kyle & Lori] were dancing around and doing whatever they could to distract him so that he didn’t realize he was sitting still! It worked and we got some {priceless} images of his cuteness & fun personality. He had a super fun & colorful cake from Artista Cakes, it even came with a little tray for the crumbs… PURE GENIUS! Thanks, Serena.

Halloween is right around the corner & that means

“Halloween Mini Session”

are coming SOON!

{Amelia~5 days fresh} – Asheville Newborn Photographer

Little Miss Amelia came in on her 5th day of her life.  I couldn’t be happier that her mom & dad, Craig & Erin brought her in while she was still so teeny, tiny.  This session was so fast & easy (special thanks to my  *wonderful* assistant, Beverly!) & I LOVED looking over and seeing Amelia’s mommy getting a little nap in.  I know it is quite an adjustment on these little one’s parents having not so much sleep, so when I can help them get caught up on some zzzzz’s – it makes me feel good to know they will leave a little refreshed.  I am waiting for 2 newborns to be born this week & I can’t wait to meet Jack &  Oliver[update :Oliver has arrived!] – have I mentioned that I LOVE my job??

{Charlize & Hampton} – Asheville Children’s Photographer

I had the opportunity to work on a commercial shoot for Sears &  GoMini’s a few weeks back  (can’t show those images yet) and we got to sneak in some shots of Heather & her gorgeous children.  Never have I seen such amazingly brilliant blue eyes!  Charlize is 4 and the best big sister a little brother could have.  She truly loves this little guy & how could you NOT?  He is 100% lovable.  While Heather was giving baby Hampton a snack, Charlize got to have fun doing some upside down shots – definitely a favorite for all 4 year olds!  Love these kids & their mom.

{Henry-6 days fresh} – Asheville Newborn Photographer

LOVED this blanket that was made by Cassandra’s [Henry's mom] sorority sister. [yes, I have ordered one for the studio]

Couldn’t resist posting this one, his legs & arms got positioned so cute & then he smiled.

Welcome to the world Mr. Henry Lee.  You’ve been here only 6 days and you stole my heart as soon as I saw your tiny self.  *sigh*  I anticipated today’s session so much due to the fact that I have taken some time off while our family traveled all over the place and transitioned into a new job.  It has been a wild & crazy summer full of fun & memories – so thankful we still have time left to make some more.  I have missed my studio and all the passion that awakens in me when I am in there for a session.  It felt great to be back doing what I was born to do : ).  Henry was a squishy, bendable & ultra sleepy baby which made things super easy for me [not so much for his daddy, whom Henry christened quite well with #1 & #2 while he was doing his ONE shot with him.]  I secretly love when the babies take their daddy’s by surprise — priceless moments.  Henry’s mom & dad were so adorable and so in love – what a great home/family for this little one to grow up in.

Will be back in the studio tomorrow shooting a commercial shoot for Sears & GoMini’s – pretty cool gig.  Fall sessions are filling already and the last day I will shoot this year is November 12.. so start thinking about Christmas shots and go ahead and call  to get your Christmas session scheduled.  It will be here fast!
