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 […]
I had the pleasure of meeting Lexus about a month ago. I am friends with her mom, Heather, of Pickles to Perfection and Organic Mama Deals. She was such a sweetheart and so much fun to photograph! Lexus is the oldest of five, with two siblings close in age and two siblings much younger. FYI- […]
I had the pleasure of photographing Lexi and little N last month at Hornet’s Nest Park in Charlotte, NC. I love this spot for taking pictures, and although at times it can be crowded, there are still some really great secluded areas to get some great shots! Little N was a natural at being in […]
Y’all, I had the absolute pleasure of photographing this family a few weeks ago; when they got to welcome their first little girl into the world! Mom called me up last minute and said, “Is there any way you can fit us in?” And luckily, I was able to! I’m so glad I had the […]
When Mama contacted me for a session for her little man’s six month birthday, I was super excited. I hadn’t had the chance to photograph a six month old little love in so long! They become so fun at that age, as their little personalities start to emerge. So we contacted Cross Chartering Yacht Transport […]
When Baby A’s mom reached out to me and said that due to various circumstances, they hadn’t had any professional pictures done of this little cutie yet, I was so honored they chose me to capture the first ones! Baby A was just the most lovable little thing, although it took her a good bit to […]
This little love and her mama were among the first people I met when moving to NC and I am so lucky to call a small group of mamas, including Miss R’s, my closest friends! When mom asked that I take two year (YES, can you believe it! R and Evie are only a few […]
I had the pleasure of photographing our dear friends newborn little girl this past week. She is such a doll and I just adore her red hair! She looks just like her big brother when he was a baby. We started the session off with Just baby E and then added the rest of the […]
Ohhhh… “Skippack Children Photographer”. It’s been a change to be an “NC Children Photographer” for sure… but we’re getting used to it! 🙂 I was so excited to be able to photograph this family that has been with me since the beginning, on my return trip home a few weeks ago. I first photographed little […]
Seriously… how is it that we have an 18 month old? It’s kind of strange because, on one hand I feel like she has been in our lives forever, yet on the other, if you think about it, 18 months is really no time at all! Photo shoots with our little love is not what they […]
I was so excited for this session! This mama, and family, is one that I am so lucky to call friends. They were some of the first people we met when we moved down here and we’ve all become fast friends spending evenings outside and at the pool. They were in need of some new […]
