American Tobacco Campus Family Session | Durham Family Photographer

I had so much fun taking urban family portraits for the Yeh family! They used to live in Durham AND lived just a few doors down from my husband when they were here!! All this to say, they've been dear friends of ours and we miss having them close by. When Jenny contacted me that they would be visiting, I was SO thrilled...when she also asked if I'd be interested to take their family portraits in Durham, I was even MORE excited and so honored!!

I remember Jenny sharing with me that she wanted to have some vivid, crisp images of their family, and simply showing them having fun together. I thought it was so touching when she mentioned that it's because their kids won't be like this forever; they grow up and change so much, and it's important to get family photos at least once a year (which I TOTALLY agree!).

The day of their session was definitely a classic, hot summer day! We originally scheduled it for a sunset session, but we had thunderstorms in Durham so we moved it to the following morning. Thankfully, the storm stopped by then, and we were greeted with cloudy skies and super humid weather. However, the Yeh's were AMAZING during the shoot despite the crazy humidity, and were so photogenic in front of the camera!! We had so much fun laughing, hugging, dancing, and eating gummy bears during the shoot!!

I'm so grateful that I have the privilege of capturing this special season of life for the Yeh family. I'm so thankful God has placed them in our lives, and can't wait to see how their beautiful family grows! Enjoy getting to know this family through their incredible family session!!

A Special Mommy & Me | Raleigh Baby Photographer

I absolutely love capturing in-home lifestyle sessions, especially portraits of mothers and their babies! There's something so honest and real about taking portraits at home; it's where life happens and where memories are created.

This was a special session because this mama, Stacy, wanted to capture sweet portraits of her and her last baby. Her daughter, 9 months of age, was transitioning out of the "baby" phase, and she wanted to capture how little her baby girl is, her cute baby rolls, and the way she smiles and giggles when she looks at mama before she grows up! We also took some sweet sibling photos with her older brother, and it was so cute seeing him kiss his little sister! I was so honored to be able to document this beautiful season of life for her, and know these will be photos that will be cherished forever.

If you're interested to learn more about in-home sessions, please contact me! In-home baby photography is SO meaningful and makes it so easy and relaxing for the families I capture. You don't need to worry about how good your home looks either, or if it looks like something out of Pinterest. Just have fun and let me do the work! ;) Enjoy the photos!

Celebrating a UNC Graduate | Hillsborough Family Photographer

Graduation parties are SO much fun, and such a wonderful accomplishment to celebrate with family! I had the honor to take some family photos for this UNC grad, Griffin. It was such a lively party with lots of bbq, children, and love! Griffin is the fourth of FIVE kids, the only BOY, and the fourth one to graduate from UNC! He also is the uncle to five ADORABLE nephews and nieces. I learned he is also close to his grandma, and was so happy to capture a sweet portrait of the two of them outside on the porch. Enjoy scrolling through some of my favorites!!
