Matilda Jane Trunk Show and Mini Sessions Spring 2010 | Raleigh Child Photographer

I'm hosting a Matilda Jane Trunk Show in my home on March 5th from 10am-12pm!

Matilda Jane has THE cutest stuff for girls--perfect alone during the summer or layered in the winter. I got to see the new line in person last weekend, and I love this collection. Please check out the lookbook to see some sneak previews.

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 to the trunk show, but you'd like to order from a catalog, let me know and I'll get you connected to the right person.

I'll be doing a mini photo session for your child if you spend $75 on Matilda Jane clothing at the trunk show! The mini sessions will be held on April 16th (times and location TBA). Each mini session will last 15-20 minutes and will feature your child, decked out in her new Matilda Jane duds and will include one 4x6 print! Digital images are not included. You will have the option to purchase prints at the regular price, listed on my website.

Please note that this 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.

So come shop, hang out, and enjoy some yummy treats : )

Holiday Minis 2010 Part Two | Raleigh Child Photographer

Here is part two of the mini sessions. I've photographed Bridget several times now (most recently for the Matilda Jane mini sessions) and it never, ever, ever gets old : ) How could it?

Holiday Cards 2010 | Raleigh Family Photographer

I had every intention of posting these long ago, but...

These are the holiday card offerings I have this year. I also have folded cards that are not pictured here. If you are interested in a folded card, please let me know and I'll show you some options!

All cards can be personalized with different text, additional text, different fonts, etc. I can also change colors in most of them.

Round cards are 5x5 and come with white square envelopes (additional postage required). Minimum order is 25 and they come in increments of 25. Ribbon/hanging material not included. See an example of them hanging here.

Please click on any of the images below to see a larger version. You'll need to click on "edit" and then select the high resolution option (even though it will be horrible quality, it will at least be bigger). Every day I'm inspired to get a different blog with better photo display options.

Collection A

Collection B

5x7 Flat cards come with white envelopes. Please note that while the front and back look attached in the images below, this is NOT a folded card. What you see on the left and right side in the images below is the front and back of a flat card.

Caira Family | Raleigh Family Photographer

These were taken at a location that was special for this family. This property has been a constant since they've lived in Cary and they have always enjoyed seeing it when they drive by. In a town where the landscape is changing quickly, this house and barn has remained. The owners were kind enough to let us use it for the session..and so we did, bringing games and wings along.

Noah | Raleigh Baby Photographer

Would you look at that little belly? I have to say, baby and toddler bellies are so adorable to me. I think I'll be sad when Talah doesn't have a little protruding belly anymore. Anyway, this is Noah and he was so cute with his big smile, wispy hair, and (of course) his little belly. I'm so glad his parents wanted to do some diaper shots!

K Family | Raleigh Family Photographer

The K family wanted to get some family shots and one year portraits for their daughter. These were taken at the grandparents' log cabin. So fun when families have neat places to shoot!
