Matilda Jane Trunk Show and FREE MINI PHOTO SESSION!!! | Raleigh Children's Photographer

I'm hosting a Matilda Jane Trunk Show in my home on March 28th from 10am-12pm! Matilda Jane has THE cutest stuff for girls--perfect alone during the summer or layered in the winter. The new line comes out March 1st and I'm anxious to get Talah some cute little ruffle pants and knot dresses (and, and, and...). You can see some sneak peeks of the new line on the Matilda Jane blog. I especially love this and this. Oh, and this is cute, too...

Matilda Jane is not available in stores, so if you're interested in coming to my house for the trunk show, email me and I'll send you an invitation. Kids are welcome! If you aren't able to come on March 28th, but you'd like to order from a catalog, let me know and I'll get you connected to the right person.

Wanna hear some good news? I've decided to do a free mini photo session for your child if you spend $50 on Matilda Jane clothing at the trunk show! After your Matilda Jane order arrives, I will set a specific date (and location) to do all of the mini sessions. Each mini session will last 15-20 minutes and will feature your child, decked out in her new Matilda Jane duds! You will have the option to purchase prints at the regular price, listed on my website.

Please note that this free mini session is for your child only. If you'd like to schedule a regular family session, please contact me and I'd be happy to schedule something with you.

Even if you don't want to purchase any clothing, you can always swing by to hang out and enjoy a cupcake : )

Gilmore Family | Raleigh Family Photographer

I had the pleasure of photographing fellow photographer, Larisa Gilmore, and her super cool family in downtown Raleigh. It's great to photograph other photographers because they tend to be up for anything and usually like offbeat locations. The weather ended up being pretty near perfect, which matched the great family and location : ) Larisa, I'll have your gallery posted soon for you!

New Website!!! | Raleigh Photographer

After some very late nights and loooong weekends, my new website is finally up! There are some great new features here, including the ability to purchase directly through my site. Each of my portrait clients will have their own private proofing gallery on the site. And, these images are big, big, big so you can get a real feel for each image!

I invite you to take a look and share your feedback. If you experience any hiccups, please let me know so I can try to get all of the kinks worked out.

Thanks and enjoy!

Website Down

Just a quick announcement that my website is down for a little bit--hopefully just through today. I'm launching my new site with a new hosting company, so there's a little downtime as the transfer goes through. I'll put up a new announcement when the new site is live!!!

Talah in Late Winter | Raleigh Children's Photographer

I had planned to make Talah a scarf for months and hadn't gotten to it. I had only crocheted a couple of things, so I was a little intimidated by the idea, despite my mom always telling me how easy it is. Incidentally, my mom is great at crocheting and I'll include a picture of the stocking she made for Talah in another post. I ended up making Talah a little cowl neck warmer instead (thanks for your help, Clare!). I have to say, she looks pretty darn cute in it (if I do say so myself!) : )

Disney in December | Raleigh Family Photographer

I'm finally posting some pictures from Disney with family in December. I'm a little behind because I've been working on my new website (coming in February!!!!).

I have to say, I had the best time with my family over the holidays. There are times when we go to Florida to visit that don't feel very relaxing (although it's still fun) because there are so many people to see and just not enough time to do it all. This time, it felt more low-key and it was just fun! I had a great time just hanging out with family...and we went to Disney, too! It was Talah's first time and I think she was pretty fascinated by it all.




The whole family together. That's me on the right with some wacky hair after getting wet on Splash Mountain : )
