I met these guys years ago after they had gotten a session with me from a local charity auction.  When Mama contacted me this year….I remembered who they were but couldn’t quite place faces….I knew it was two little boys, etc.  Um…..who is the boy that’s taller than me with hands like Shaq?  Wow how […]

So….basically Mom’s a rock star.  So is Dad for that matter.  Little miss wearing ‘normal size jeans’ just had baby number THREE three weeks ago…and not only was she sporting normal attire…she was throwing “E”‘s birthday party that afternoon.  Sweet little family with a cool, calm demeanor.  I love getting to see these people and […]

Good grief….this is some serious fun, happiness and smiles through and through.  Moms and Dads….let this be an example of letting a shoot “be” and get in there and PLAY with them!!  This daddy plays this hard every time I’ve been with them.  Mama always says, “This isn’t just for the photo shoot….this is how […]

This cute family received a Gift Certificate from an in-law and what fun we had in the park!!  Fortunately for the kiddos….and maybe unfortunately for Mama….there were HUGE piles of mulch that were irresistible.  Mulch + tights is pretty much like magic marker on the face…….but we didn’t care!  Smiles, running and fun for the […]

Rehearsal Dinners can be ….tricky.  Stress, nerves and tension can be high for ALL sorts of reasons.  But…if you plan the night at Bowen’s Island on Folly Beach….you can kiss alllll that stress goodbye.  What a great night – to start a great weekend.  And….on my way to the party…..I saw THIS and got chills.

I love, love, LOVE my trips to Palm Beach….but they wouldn’t be possible without sweet Katy.  She is my husband’s sister and I sort of have the guilts that I get the pleasure of visiting more than he does.  Her household takes me in and I am very grateful for their open arms, efforts towards […]

I’ve been lucky enough to shoot this family a couple of times before and I always enjoy them for a few reasons.  Mama and Daddy are super nice and easy to be around….little “S” is always up for a lil’ posing for the camera….and “L” has got lots to talk about.  This time, he had […]

Sweet Joanne is one of my favorites down in Palm Beach.  Luckily, Bill was able to join in on the shoot this year and Bebe got to go swimming.  She loved liked hated it.  Sorry Bebe…we were just trying to celebrate your birthday!  Your Mama and I got a good chuckle out of your dip…Enjoyed seeing you, […]
