Max and Lindsey

A week and a half ago I got a chance to go down to the Piedmont to visit with some dear friends of mine from college. They have just had their second child, a little girl named Lindsey who is absolutely gorgeous. ( I think the pictures will speak for themselves) I had so much fun with all of them and going to the pool brought back such wonderful memories of my own childhood when my only concern was how long I could stay in the pool until I turned into a complete prune. If life could only go back to being so care-free.
Their first child, Max, is already becoming a little man, his personality shining through all of his expressions, and I tell you, he has plenty of them!

Here are a couple of my favorite images from my visit.

Love you guys!




Max's eyes say so much already.


Miss Lindsey... I wasn't lying about the eyes... was I?


Dad and his little girl... too cute.


One thing learned during my visit... Lindsey is not a big fan of carrots.


Rockin out with the toothbrush microphone!


"Hey buddy... Is that an expensive camera you brought into my bath tub... can I see it?!"

Family Fun at the Botanical Gardens

Hello All! What a great day I had with Avigial, Cashion and Reid's extended family at the Botanical Gardens 2 weeks ago. I just love that their Grandma wanted to get the family together for family portraits but wanted to make sure that we would have fun with the kids at the same time. I told her that having fun with the kids was my specialty and that I don't take pictures without making sure we mix in a good helping of laughter, silliness, and plain 'ol fun! The Gardens on UNC Asheville provided the perfect spot to get some great images, let the kids play in the water and have a good time. I got to hang out with 2 fantastic brothers and their cousin who was visiting from New Jersey and I had such a wonderful time with all of them. Thanks again to Bunny for setting it all up! I kept the shutter snapping and got some beautiful shots of the kids and of the family all together, not that it was too difficult with such a gorgeous group!





Caught in the act!


Avigial is a natural, what a smile!


Two cousins having a blast in the creek.


The Reid man cometh. This boy loves mud!


I love the colors in this shot, the blue sky reflecting in the water...perfect!

Sabrina and Rob June 22, 2008

Congratulations to Sabrina and Rob who joined together in a beautiful ceremony on June the 22nd in the sacred mountains of Western North Carolina. I have known Sabrina for many years and was truly blessed to be in the presence of her and Rob as they got married. Thanks to Michael for allowing the bride and groom to have their ceremony take place on his land, the magic and energy of the place permeated the entire day. The rain that we experienced was the perfect gift from mother nature to bless Sabrina and Rob's union.
Here are a couple of the images from the special day.




A prefect dress for Sabrina.


I love how happy Sabrina looks in this image.


A little rain didn't dampen anyone's spirits.


What a beautiful setting with a beautiful bride.


The blessed couple.
