This family’s Daddy is a doer…a ‘get it done’ kind of guy.  He’s sort of like Fred Sanford meets Ebay Genius…he is a master at finding classic…’things’. More importantly, he is pretty good at creating old-school fun…no water park, no video games…just a hose, two boys and two buckets of water.  Awesome.

This family called me by way of another great family…but my youngest caught me editing and said, “I know that kid…he’s the one that can whack the baseball!”  And then I remembered…we had marveled at his young talent a few weeks earlier at a neighbor’s baseball game.  Always a small world.  Thanks for having me over, I had a great morning with you guys – and so glad we got Brinkley included!

A great big family…almost all of them together for the weekend…and rain was not going to scare us away.  What a fun afternoon…with  personality all over the place!!  Enjoyed it!

Seriously, is there anything better…than a quiet morning at the beach…weather just right?  Thanks for having me out to Folly…and I love making the “back neck sugar” connection!

This sweet family came by way of one of my out-of-town groupings where I pack several shoots into one day somewhere other than Charleston.  This week, they happened to be with some extended family and invited me to Pawley’s Island beach to see everyone.  I had a great time meeting everyone, seeing how the four have grown, brushed up on some ‘bus vocabulary’ and had fun in the surf!  Thanks for having me over…it was a great morning!

Usually by the time I leave a photo shoot….I can tell the personalities of all the players.  These two GENUINELY enjoy and love each other.  So refreshing to see patience, compromise and helpfulness amongst siblings…(are you reading this R, B and H? ~snicker snicker~)  I enjoyed our perfect afternoon in the park.

This was one of the sweetest little ceremonies I’ve ever witnessed.  The ‘Blessing’ of Miss “S”.  A backyard full of friends and family…sipping pink lemonade and bloody mary’s…celebrating her Blessing.  It was perfect.

I normally don’t post any pictures from this Preschool’s ‘school pictures’…but I got special permission from this Mama because the morning of the shoot…I got a text from a friend…saying a friend of hers had asked for prayers for a photographer…because she had a little munchkin that was NOT interested in having her picture taken that day.  Oh yeh?  Well…Miss Munchkin and I got the giggles…big time…and it was all good.

Lucky enough to watch this little guy grow…every three months.  I do love it….so fun to watch his eyes come alive and aware.  Couldn’t keep his tongue in his mouth this time…so deliciously, stinkin’ cute.

This is a special little family…that is special to my family.  I’m so glad we had a beautiful Monday morning…after a cold, rainy weekend. Enjoyed it.
