The Drake Family

I met Kendall and her photogenic children when I traveled to Kansas for a whirlwind long weekend of portrait sessions and a commercial shoot. We were blessed with great weather, which made for some great outdoor shooting. The Drake Family has this fantastic playhouse in their backyard that not only shoots beautifully, but is fully […]

emily & andy

Emily & Andy were almost too easy to photograph. Highly expressive, gorgeous, and they love to snuggle with each other and with their mom – we spent a beautiful morning traipsing around the park… A new take on chess 🙂 I’m pretty sure this type of climbing should not be encouraged… Did I mention highly […]

the mcgrath twins

The McGrath twins look A LOT alike. Most of the time, I can tell twins apart quite quickly – I even pride myself on it in a dorky kind of way – but I kept having to look for that one little distinguishing mark every time I looked at each sweet baby! Even now, looking […]

last beach session at wrightsville! (aka pt. 7)

The Stone Family drove out to the coast just for these family photographs, and they had to get back on the road and drive several hours home afterwards. They showed up looking great – in combination of cute sundresses, denim, light tops. The girls’ hair looked great, complete with the perfectly coiffed bow. Luckily I […]

Life is a beach pt. 6

The Smith Family lives in Manhattan but were traveling through North Carolina and Wrightsville Beach, where we met up to capture these beautiful images along the shore. These two little speedy monsters both have such a “J.Crew Catalog” look to them, but they are definitely all boy(s)! Attentive seagulls really add to the Run Free […]

Life is a beach, pt. 5

The Desai Family met with me just weeks before they packed up to move to Texas. We had such a high-spirited shoot, and we were able to package up quite a beautiful collection of matted and mounted photographs to display in their new home. Especially helpful when they miss the North Carolina beaches. This 3-series […]

life is a (back to wrightsville) beach, pt. 4

I just have to start out with my very favorite image from this shoot with The Barber Family. How ingenious is this spontaneous move? I mean, the ultimate sun protection, right? And it’s always nice to try a new look now & then… …although these are quite lovely, as well… The blue of her eyes […]

life is a (wrightsville) beach, pt. 2

Little Zeke was relishing his first feel of sand on his toes…and his parents were delighted by his confused and adorable reaction. I like to think of children looking at a photograph like this years later and really seeing out crazy their parents were – and hopefully still are!! – about them… The whole family […]

Life is a (topsail) beach, pt. 3

The Shah Family all met up at Topsail Beach for a reunion week on the beach, and I showed up to find a big, high-energy family ready to play… Brother, sister, and all the wind blowing in the right direction. This is one of those fabulous moments – simply a gift to a photographer. She […]
