I had the honor of photographing the Prenshaw family again this past winter, and we had such an awesome time taking photos at West Point on the Eno in Durham! It was extra special because their daughter turned ONE, and it is incredible to see how much she has grown!

The day of our shoot was cool and crisp, and I was so excited the sun was out because it created GORGEOUS backlighting. One of my favorite parts of this shoot was simply seeing Carley and Eric interacting with their daughter, and seeing how much they can get this girl to giggle! I also loved seeing them laughing and playing together. There was a funny moment when their daughter was curiously studying the environment and found a leaf. She looked at it for a second and then proceeded to put it in her mouth! What was funnier was her mama copied her, and I quickly snapped a picture of that silly moment!

Enjoy some highlights below and seeing more beautiful photos from this family session!

I had such a WONDERFUL time taking photos for the Neal family this fall! They have such a warm, kind, and gentle demeanor, and truly have the sweetest smiles! They were also incredibly natural in front of the camera, and every shot seriously looked amazing!

There were so many sweet moments from the shoot. One highlight was when I greeted them, their youngest greeted me with a big hug and I was so touched! He was full of smiles, and had such a happy and charming personality! We then walked to the first spot for photos, and the youngest was already smiling and laughing. Even though I didn’t pose the family yet, I HAD to take capture his adorable expression and that sweet moment! In fact, the first photo you see below was the very first photo I took from the shoot! I remember then asking how old he was and he said, “three,” and tried holding up three fingers (see photo below!). Again, it was SO sweet, funny, and adorable, and I had to capture that precious moment!

There truly were SO many other sweet and silly moments, and I really enjoyed seeing the loving connection they have with each other. I especially loved capturing the three boys and their brotherly bond, as well as capturing moments of just mom and dad :) As we were finishing up the shoot, we took photos near the south entrance of the American Tobacco Campus. I remember as I peered through my camera, I was so excited to see a RAINBOW right behind them!! It was so beautiful and special, and truly a wonderful way to end the shoot!

I had so much fun taking photos for the Boros family this past fall at Umstead Park in Raleigh! Stefanie and I had a great connection during the initial consultation. I remember her telling me that they were looking for a photographer who can capture candid moments, and boy, we sure had a lot of candid and FUN moments during this shoot!

One of the most memorable things from this shoot was that we found a TOAD during our session. It was so endearing to see how excited everyone was and how the boys’ faces lit up! Capturing the youngest one giggling while holding the toad was priceless! I also learned that this family was an animal-loving family, and it was so evident when they gently handled the toad :) We ended the shoot by the lake, and the sun was setting so beautifully. I think another one of my favorite moments towards the end was when I was capturing a portrait of all of them hugging and embracing one another. It was a brief moment, but truly a tender and beautiful moment that I know will be cherished forever!
