I decided a blog post about the top spots for a prenatal massage Charlotte and Lake Norman might come in pretty handy for the mama’s out there! I am pretty picky when it comes to where I get a massage. If I’m going to pay for relaxation, I want the whole experience. It’s hard to […]
Choosing a newborn photographer feels like a huge decision because it IS a huge decision. You’re trusting someone with your brand-new baby during the most vulnerable first days of their life. But when every photographer’s website says they’re ‘experienced’ and ‘professional,’ how do you actually tell who’s the real deal? Here are three questions to […]
We love books and have been to our fair share of the best libraries in Charlotte. While my oldest was little, I worked part-time, which meant my two days home were usually spent running errands, or enjoying downtime with her. When we moved from PA to NC, I found myself a newly minted stay-at-home-mom and […]
This post is one I feel pretty qualified to write. Ice cream is my favorite food, so I’ve tasted quite a few of the options out there. I thought it would be fun to put a list together for my favorites ice cream shops Charlotte NC in case you’re looking for a sweet treat. Best […]
Being a new parent is hard. If this is your first baby, date-nights probably look a little different, or maybe non-existent. I hope this list of Charlotte Date Night Ideas helps open the doors to some new ideas on what date nights can look like post-baby. As a seasoned mom, I’ve done life after baby […]
If I’m being honest, I’m partly making this family friendly restaurants Charlotte list for myself. We often debate where to go, and of course, always have to keep the kids in mine. So now I have somewhere to look back to when we’re looking for good places to eat with the kids! Some of the […]
Such a fun session I’m sharing today! Mom had seriously the cutest outfits for this little one! I think my favorite is the last one! How adorable is little O?! She was so well-behaved and sweet during her session. A complete joy to photograph! Such a cute little hat mom found! I need to add some […]
This sweet girl… she is about the same age as my littlest, and just adorable. They are so sweet at this age! I’m so glad mama decided to capture this moment in time. They will never be this little again, and surely those little things they do (like munch on their chubby little hands) are […]
It seems hard to call this my ‘job’ when it involves spending time with adorable duos like these. My “Mama and Me Mini Sessions” took place in the Spring, and came out beautifully. These are just a few of my favorites, but there were many more that were just as precious. The bond between mama and […]
A very happy half-birthday indeed to this darling little one! Miss E was dressed up and full of smiles for her session. I met her mommy though another client, and was delighted to capture this fun half-birthday milestone. Little Miss E wore a sweet little eyelet dress, and we posed her in a rocking chair […]
Mounted prints are prints that are adhered to a solid backing. Instead of a flimsy paper portrait, you have a portrait that holds it’s form. Mounting your prints helps to protect them from bending and marking and keeps your images safer longer. There are many different types of materials used to mount your images. One […]
I’m a little partial to this sweet girl. She happens to be my own 🙂 She was a dream to photograph…with her sleepy smiles and puckered lips, she looked every bit like a dream come true! It took about three tries to get a good time to photograph her, but the timing was finally right! Every […]
This handsome little fella just happens to be the 10th addition to our playgroup whose parents were already looking for the best nursery in stafford. I was so thrilled to have the opportunity to capture this special time for my sweet friends! The session took place in Baby W’s adorable nursery complete with an outdoors/mountainous […]
This sweet girl turned one just a few days after I had my second little one. Luckily, mom was thinking ahead and we were able to sneak in a milestone birthday session for her before my littlest love arrived! We decided on a local park to capture the moments… This is one of mom and […]
Well, this is sure a personal share today… I hadn’t planned on putting these maternity photos on the worldwide web, but I kind of love them and think other mamas shouldn’t be afraid to show off the most amazing thing their body can do 🙂 Hard to believe that baby growing inside of me is […]
I just adore this little boy and his family. I have had the pleasure of photographing them over the last year, and each time, they are so sweet and fun to work with! When mom contacted me to do this baby boy Cake Smash, I was so excited! Cake Smash’s are some of the most […]
