Hey hey! It’s a new school year! And it is time to introduce the Class of 2020 Senior Style Team. I am so excited to have 12 amazing ladies on my squad this year. They represent SIX different local schools in Lenoir County. This completely blows my mind. It is the first time that I’ve […]

Shooting natural light portraits at sunset is actually super tricky. There are only a few minutes to shoot when the light is just right. Thankfully we got to the dock at the perfect time during Blythe’s senior portrait session. We spent some time in downtown Kinston for the first shots and then drove out to […]

Laughter is one thing that comes to mind when I think of Chari. She wanted flowers in her senior shoot so we drove down to Historic New Bern and found a few spots full of flowers. We may also have made a stop on the way down when we saw a field of day lilies. […]

His facial expressions are the best! I first met him after taking photos of one of the many plays he was in at North Lenoir. I loved […]
