What a privilege it is to be able to watch someone grow up from newborn and beyond. Kelly contacted me last November as she was anxiously waiting the arrival of her little Wake to be born. We had a great time getting to know each other in during Wake’s newborn session. Now Wake is 6 months old and possibly the cutest baby on the planet! We met at Crystal Pier in Wrightsville Beach, NC for their family portrait session. I just love Kelly’s maxi! The yellow was a perfect choice for her! Wake’s Dad, Jason, is a cool surfer dude and he brought along his surfboard and boy and I glad because the last photo of Wake on the surfboard may be one of my favorite baby pictures ever! I hope you enjoy the photos, I can’t wait to shoot this sweet family again in December when we celebrate Wake’s first year! Pregnant or know someone who is pregnant? We offer a great packages to capture a babies first year, so contact us today!

Today was a good day! I knew that I wanted to make sure to get my challenge photo today and I ended up documenting a simple, but very happy day with my wonderful family. Barrett and I shot a wedding yesterday and ended up getting home later than we expected. When we woke up and realized we had overslept our church alarms, we decided to make the best of it and to get some waffles 🙂
We had our fill, shopped a bit and then came home to work on some home improvement projects while Berlin napped. We spent almost an hour setting up to install some track lighting in our kitchen and then realized that we had an issue with the brackets and needed to go to the home improvement store.
The sun was still shining, we woke up Berlin for a family photo and then took a trip to the park to end the day. The family photos are so much fun to look at. Nigel was our official “button presser” He would push the shutter button and then run to my side to take the photo. The first time he accidentally kicked the tripod and moved the camera, thus the pole in the shot. Another favorite is the last time we let Berlin be in charge and she delayed returning and the camera captured us cheering her back to us 🙂 I love it!!!!!
We have had a lot of trials in our almost 6 years of marriage and to have a peaceful day loving on each other and thanking God for every second is absolutely heaven on earth. This challenge is the best because it forces me to be a part of the moment and in the frame. Mom’s out there please get in the photo too!

You may notice a new face in that last picture! We have a new family pet! His name is Hazelnut the guinea pig 🙂 I have to confess I am really smitten with him. I never knew how sweet and cute guinea pigs are. He will sit in Nigel’s lap and let him hold him for hours. We even have him so happy he is purring 🙂
Summer is winding down and I am hoping fall and all the joys (and weather it brings) will be here soon. We started Kindergarden this week! I am already marveling at how much Nigel has grown since we started Preschool last year. I may write a post in a few weeks with details on our daily school schedule and curriculum.
Work has been amazing! I have been so blessed to have a lot of amazing photographic opportunities lately. My schedule is slammed full! I hope you enjoy some peeks into our past few weeks. I love using my phone to capture simple moments of our days 🙂
