My-oh-my how fast a year goes! I have had the pure pleasure of photographing this darling doll baby since birth – she just gets cuter and sweeter each time I see her! Her session is one of my favorites with her little vintage-style dress, her smiles, the golden sunshine… I am in love <3<3

How does it happen?! And why so fast?! It seems you were just learning to crawl and now kindergarten is only months away. Although saddened, I LOVE watching you grow, and change, and learn, and become your own little independent person. I love you baby girl, and you will always be my baby no matter what number you are <3

Adorable. That’s all I can say about this family! They were my last session of 2012 and we had the perfect afternoon waiting for us! The girls are so sweet and simply a pleasure to be around (and mom and dad aren’t too bad, either :) Oh, and WAY too many images to narrow it down, but I did my best.

Leah has the perfect little baby (I mean, big girl :) features all rolled into one adorable little girl! From her stunning blue eyes and porcelain skin, to her silly and happy little sayings, she is such a joy to be around! Her session marked the warmest day of the month, and she was ready for spring! I love summer-dress-bare-feet sessions <3

I love my clients. I will say that each one is my favorite and that they are all the most adorable, and the truth is, they are! I adore each family for a very special reason, and Sophie and her family are no different. I have a *very special* place in my heart for little Sophie and her amazing mama, Paige. Sophie was just a bitty baby when I first photographed her and her family. It was my very first session in Raleigh since moving from California. It was FREEZING cold and pouring out, but they were ready to go. They were SO CUTE all bundled up, and some of the images I took that day remain my all-time favorites (I will have to get them up here!). Thank you, Stein family for your continued support and encouragement over the past 2.5 years! My heart is full <3

I adore the song American Honey by Lady Antebellum, and for some reason it always come to mind when I go through images of siblings from summer sessions <3 I also adore these sweet-darling-giggly-happy-adorable sisters and get *so very exited* when mom books a session for them! This makes me ready for summer for sure :)

I was thrilled the day I found out a little boy would be joining the Friedrick family. He is such a lucky little guy to be surrounded by so much love. Here is a little peak into his newborn session <3
