The family portrait season is in full force here in Kernersville, North Carolina! We had everything from picnics to leaf wars. I love when families have FUN together! Here are a few of my favorites from this past week.

Welcome everyone, I’d like to introduce you to Sweet Baby Ray…or Raymond. He’s the newest & cutest addition to the Smith family! We spent an afternoon at the Smith home in Kernersville snuggling & snapping. Ray is super curious so he didn’t want to shut his eyes for a moment! He also wasn’t too keen on my camera, but once we got him settled he gave me some very cute material to work with. He’s already grown so much since these photos, it’s crazy! Can’t they just stay this small forever? Enjoy the intense cuteness on this Tuesday afternoon!

Beautiful baby Gia! You too are now over a year old! Wow! I’ve now wrapped up all of my First Year sessions from NY. It’s hard to think of how fast it went…wow, just wow.

Gia is one of the sweetest little girls that there ever was! You’ll just melt when you gaze into her big blue eyes. We’ve done all sorts of sessions together, posed, outdoor, lifestyle. This last time we spent the afternoon hanging out with her parents. We explored all sorts of fun spots, cuddled, rolled on the carpet, & ate her favorite cheese puffs (they’re my favorite too Gia!). Thank you Michelle & Bill for letting me into your family, even for a brief moment. You’re all so wonderful and I can’t wait to see what Gia will become! 🙂
Lets take a look back on Gia’s first year of life!

It’s so strange and wonderful to see my friends starting little families of their own. I love that my gift to them can be capturing beautiful moments of their children. It’s something unique that I can offer other than diapers or onesies. It’s something that they can cherish forever.

So obviously when some of my favorite people in the world got preggers it was the first thing that popped into my head. Amanda & Jordan are stinkin’ fantastic people. They’re so kind, generous, and FUNNY! Oh my, when we get together we’re always laughing! I cannot wait to see who Calvin will become, because his parents are so amazing. He’s bound to be fantastic…and he already is! Look at his big smile and funny faces! He’s just a ray of sunshine! Enjoy!
