Dear Class of 2021, Your senior year may not have looked how you pictured it way back during freshmen year, but you did it! You made the best of it with smiles on your faces. I am proud to know each of these seniors and I pray the next years of their lives just keep […]

Every spring, I head over to the prettiest church in Kinston (in my opinion) – St. Mary’s Episcopal Church to work with a handful of senior who book senior cap and gown portraits. I love these portraits because it ends out my time with these seniors with a celebration! Some even choose to bring a […]

Still don’t know what to get your main squeeze for Vday? Here are some creative ideas that cost little to nothing… Make a memory – plan a day together going back to all the places you’ve made special memories. The place you met, your first date, that place you had a big fight… take pictures […]

“Mattie, can you balance on this pillar and stick your feet up in the air?” Sure, she says! Lol! From her studded leather boots to her leopard body suit, Mattie was ready to make this session her own. We started at the docks where she grew up playing at the country club, made sure to […]

Miller has her own pose. I’m not sure when it started, but at her senior shoot, her mom told her, “do your pose…” and every shoot I did with Miller after that one I knew I wanted to incorporate it. I would just say, “do the Miller.” I’ll let you guess which one it is […]

Ideas constantly flood my mind. It is overwhelming. But every now and again I can actually bring one to life. Two ideas came together in this shoot – a longboard and this old rusty gas station I’ve driven by 100’s of times. When I found out Sydne longboards, I started putting the ideas into motion. […]

As soon as Skylar said she wanted to use her grandpa’s “classic car,” I could not WAIT for her senior portrait session! Then, I saw the color. Jaw drop. With her red dress, these portraits are simply stunning. We had fun with posing and pretending to drive. But it doesn’t stop there, Skylar also wanted […]

These two have been friends for years and they even call each other their twin. Being around Elise & India for just a few minutes, it is obvious that they adore each other and have a kinship that is good enough for Anne of Green Gables (sorry, y’all know I’m Classic Lit nerd). They are […]

India is such a happy person. I just can’t help but smile when I see her. She cares deeply for others and is a loyal friend. When she faces adversity, she has a joyful attitude that lifts up those around her. It was no wonder that her senior session was so full of giggling that […]

Elise is one of those people that has a calming effect when she enters a room. Her quiet nature and sweet smile are sure to make anyone feel at ease. I am positive those characteristics will serve her and others well as she makes her way in the world. Her laid-back attitude also made her […]
