I saw Bella, the oldest, when she was three years old. She is exactly the same as I remembered but had definitely grown taller! She has the same exuberant and fun personality now as she did then! This time, she brought along her little sister. There is a new girl in the house! She was just as sweet as can be – quiet, too! It was quite a day but a fun one. It was hot. I know Mom and I were sweating buckets, but it was all worth it in the end. The result of our session together is what matters most to us. Enjoy these girls.

And last one for now….

And this session reminded me just how special sisters really are! I had my sister visit for a week in June while on vacation, and it was just pure joy, fun, and I loved every minute of her being here! Goodbyes are tough though!

Me and my sister Sheila (she is three years older)

And one from each upcoming sessions!

I am busy editing like a mad woman this weekend. Here are a few of the upcoming sessions I’ll be sharing. I also wanted to mention that I will be out of town all of this week. I should be back in the office on Friday at some point. I will check emails on Friday. I will not have email access this week. I am so excited to fly out to see my husband and be there for his graduation and a semi-formal dinner (oh joy! I’m excited but so not use to that type of thing. I do have my dresses though. I still need shoes!).

Enjoy…..

And then these pretty little girls! I photographed Bella when she was 3 I believe. Now, she’s growing up and has a little sister!  I’m sad they have since moved away from Fayetteville. =(

I love it in black and white too!

And last but not least, here is one of my favorite families! I love love that they continue to have me as their photographer. I haven’t seen them since their little guy was born. Beautiful children, and I love where they live!

That’s it for now! I will share more from each of the above sessions as a “featured session” as soon as I can.

This session went very well considering I was photographing a two year old little boy. Boy isn’t he cute?! OH my, he’s cute. His Mom hired me for his newborn pictures, and he was no little baby. I expected him to be much bigger, but he’s not “big” at all. He’s just very tall. I mean, look at Dad. Seriously people – he’s tall!! And Mom is just as petite as she can be…and SO SO SO sweet!!

Here’s a sneak peak for you!!

Okay so I like this particular shot in both black and white and color. I can’t help it.

Aww…Kisses for Mommy!

This family was super sweet. They had a wonderful and beautiful little girl. She was so happy. She listened so well and was just a sweet child (Mom and Dad were great, too). We had our session after many attempts at many rescheduled dates. Do you know why? RAIN. I have never had to reschedule so many clients or so many clients more than once before in all my years of working here in Fayetteville. I kid you not. This family had to wait quite a while because it rained every day scheduled before. But, it looked like rain this morning, and I was so upset for her and myself. We met anyway and THANKFULLY, it was beautiful! It was actually nice weather and no one was sweating or freezing. It was definitely worth the wait in the end.

Oh how I love a good close up!!!
