Even though sibling rivalry is probably at its height in their relationship (although I didn’t see it!), Will is Lexi’s big brother and she looks up to him… except when it comes to surfing. There is no arguing about that one, she is definitely the better surfer, even Will agrees. During the shoot, Lexi was […]

This gorgeous girl just turned one! Look at her! Those cheeks get me! She has a sweet little smile, but a little bit of sass too! It was so much fun to meet her, not just because she is such a little cutie pie but also because I did her mama and daddy’s wedding photography […]

These two guys were so fun to hang out with together. There is just something about the bond between brothers. Rough and tumble is the norm. There were a few moments during the shoot when someone was rolling in the grass and others when someone was digging in the dirt. William plays just about every […]

Climbing trees has been around at least since Zacchaeus and I’m sure that song about him has inspired many a little one ascend to heights that horror their mothers. Little Will has a special tree at his family’s beach home and wanted to perch for a few shots during our session. (Don’t worry moms, dad […]

I’ve never spit on a crab, but Barron challenged me to do it. Apparently, he’s pretty good because he has lots of practice. This is the first for me. Needless to say, this was one of the most fun sessions I’ve done in a while. Barron and Sydney are two rambunctious kiddos just like mine […]

I try to head off the holiday season which brings lots of Christmas Card designing by getting as many sessions booked in August, September and October as I can fit. The Fall is also the busiest time for Senior […]

In Kentucky, the sun goes down a lot later than in Eastern NC. So around 8pm, when I ventured out with Josiah’s brother and his family to the front ridge of his parents’ ranch, we were right in the middle of the golden hour in all it’s perfection. We live 11 hours apart so I […]

Welcome little Lucy to the Rouse House! This growing family has a special place in our hearts. When they first moved here, at least half a dozen people told us we had to meet this couple who would be leading Young Life in the area because we had so much in common. They were onto […]

Since things got REALLY crazy during November and December, I wasn’t able to blog all of my sessions. Sooo… I thought it would be fun to blog them as “the 12 Sessions of Christmas” in the last few days before Christmas. The last day – Christmas day – will be our family! Without further ado…here […]
