Right now you might be deep in nursery decisions, building out your baby registry, and trying to figure out which car seat actually fits in your backseat. Booking a newborn photographer? That feels like something future-you can totally handle after baby arrives. But knowing when to book your newborn photographer is essential for capturing those […]
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 […]
This family was so great to work with! I met this lovely Mama and her little man through a mommy group I joined just before moving here to North Carolina. All the moms are super nice and welcoming. When I first posted my Holiday Mini’s she was the first one to sign up and was […]
I am a family photographer, but this family was a little bit different from my usual! The Dotoli’s were referred to me by one of my clients and I am SO glad they decided to take part in the Holiday Mini Sessions a couple of weeks ago! They were so sweet and fabulous to work […]
I am soooo excited to share this Kelly Moorebag with you guys in my very first video! I thought I would incorporate some videos into the blog every once in awhile to make it a bit more interesting! You’ll have to bear with me as I work on the QUALITY of the video, as I […]
I just realized it has been almost a MONTH since I last posted. HOLY COW! We have been super busy in the last month. Most of you know we have moved to NC, and also closed on our house in PA, signed a contract to build a house here in NC and had family visit! […]
Our little Evie recently turned double digits and we, of course, had to have a little photo shoot to celebrate! I ADORE these themed shoots, but they are difficult without someone to help! We did this a couple of weeks ago when daddy was already in North Carolina, so it was just baby and mama. […]
I love family photography, and I had the pleasure of photographing this lovely family yesterday evening. They were awesome to work with, and little C is ALWAYS entertaining me with silly faces!! I worked with little C and Mama Travetti during our casting call for the Tea Party shoot (you can see more of that […]
I had the pleasure of working with this little gentlemen for his cake smash session, as well as some other fun photos. The theme for his first birthday is sock monkey’s, which I think is SO stinkin’ cute! Mom made his cake and Grandma made the banner across the highchair. I LOVE those kinds of […]
I recently did a casting call for a tea party session I had in mind, and these five little girls and their mamas were kind enough to make my vision a reality! Posted below are a few sneaks of the images captured at last night’s scorcher of a session (I AM SO OVER THIS HEAT […]
This little sweetheart was a delight to photograph for her cake smash! She was all smiles and had a great personality, which made for some adorable poses and expressions! Between Miss Q, mom, dad and grandma, my job was easy-peasy! They were getting some great reactions out of her! And isn’t that cake adorable?! Mom […]
Hello Lovely Friday, Today I decided to share a photo before & after with you all! Isn’t that little peanut below just the cutest?! It’s my day off and it’s going to snow- excited for that! Evie didn’t nap great this morning, but luckily she’s taking a great afternoon nap! So, while she gets her […]
