For as long as I can remember, I’ve dreamed of having a photography studio at home. Not just a space to work — but a space that truly felt like an extension of my brand, where clients could walk in and immediately exhale. A place that said, you’re in good hands. After 14 years in […]
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 […]

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 […]
I adore this family. Have I mentioned that in any of my previous posts?! They really are the sweetest and just such a joy to work with. Mom and I were due about a month apart, and I was so thankful I was still able to maneuver around enough to capture this special time with […]
I first met Katie shortly after moving to NC a little over a year ago. She was a friend of a friend of a friend and we all had kiddos about the same age. They are now my closest group of friends, who I lovingly refer to as my “mommy friends”, and I am so […]
I had the pleasure of working with this family for the first time last month… yes, last month… January. Remember that month when it was mild and dry?! We decided to have the session at Jetton Park. There are lots of great places to get some nice background shots there, plus the family is new […]
This little man is just the handsomest, and now he is a big ONE YEAR OLD! I first met Baby Parker when his mom and I connected while I was on the search for a Make Up Artist. She happened to pop up in my newsfeed through a mutual friend, I feel in love with her […]
While we were home visiting over Christmas, I snapped some three month photos of my niece, and I’m pretty thrilled with how well Lu did in front of the camera. She is so easy to get smiles out of, it makes my job super easy! I may be a bit partial to this little darling, […]
Ya’ll… I am DYING to get out and shoot some dreamy, creamy sessions. I’m talking ivory, light pink, oatmeal and light grey. Does that sound like your style? Do you want to join me? Read the details below to find out more! I am looking for three families and three children to work with over the next […]
I had the pleasure of first meeting this little love’s Mama and Dad when we had our neighborhood yard sale last spring. They had a friend out scouting for baby items for their little miracle baby (five years in the making!). We happened to have a few of the items they were looking for, so […]
I have had the pleasure of working with Isa’s mom, Roxanne for the last year. She owns an awesome little business over in Cornelius called Lake Norman 3D Imaging. You may have heard me mention it a half dozen times over on Always, C, since I am seeing her for my 3D Ultrasounds for Baby […]
