There’s always something so special about photographing families right on the edge of something new. This sweet maternity session just outside of Greensboro had everything I love about this season of life: glowing light, happy anticipation, and lots of love. When Janet reached out for Greensboro maternity photos, I could tell right away this was going to be a joyful session. She and her husband…

It’s graduation season, and that means it’s time to pop the champagne and celebrate some amazing accomplishments — just like Laura did for her graduation photos at at High Point University! 🎓 Laura is graduating with a degree in Chemistry (go science!) and we had the best time wandering around campus capturing her joy, personality, and school spirit. HPU has no shortage of gorgeous photo…

Graduation season is one of my favorite times of year. There’s something about the joy, the pride, the sigh of relief, and the huge smiles that make college grad photos so so special. So far this year, I’ve been lucky enough to take college grad photos for students from High Point University, Wake Forest, UNCG, Elon, UNC, and NC A&T. Each session has reminded me…

Spring is always a season of new beginnings—but this one felt especially tender and meaningful. The Murphy family met me at Dewberry Farm in Kernersville during the tulips’ peak bloom, and from the very first shot, their connection shined through. As a family photographer, I’ve learned that the most beautiful sessions are rarely about perfect outfits or ideal weather. They’re about the why. And for…

Every May, something magical happens just outside of the Triad—Dogwood Farms in Belews Creek bursts into color with wildflowers as far as the eye can see 🌸✨. It’s perfect for wildflower sessions in North Carolina! If you’ve ever dreamed of photos in a flower field at golden hour, this is your sign. Poppies, larkspur, and warm spring light? It’s basically a North Carolina fairytale. And…

Question. What would you grab in a fire? A number of years ago right after we got married, my husband and I were jolted awake at 2 a.m. by the glow of flames outside our window. A neighbor’s shed was on fire, and we had seconds to react. In the rush to safety, we grabbed our laptops, my camera, and—accidentally—a stack of magazines instead of…

Some sessions just feel meant to be. This one? A full-circle moment. ✨ When I first talked to Jennifer about a Greensboro maternity session, neither of us had any idea that we’d actually shared the same dorm floor at UNC years ago. Same building. Same hallway. Same two years. We likely passed each other hundreds of times—and now, here we were, reunited in a wildflower…

With winter almost over and warmer weather on the way, I’m already looking forward to my beach family photo sessions this summer! The beach is just special, right? I take any chance I get to go, but I especially love the family sessions I get to photograph there. It’s the perfect setting—naturally gorgeous, with incredible light that gives photos that warm glow I’m always after.…

If you’re prepping for lifestyle newborn photos and wondering about what colors will look best, let me give away a major tip. Neutral colors for family pictures are magic for these sessions! As a newborn photographer, I’m all about capturing those sweet, fleeting moments when your little one first arrives, and choosing the right colors will play a huge role in making those photos truly…

Congratulations to Katherine on her Spring 2024 graduation from Duke University! What an honor it was to capture her Duke graduation photos to celebrate this incredible achievement! I am SOO SOO happy about how these turned out! Although I’m a UNC grad, I can’t deny how beautiful the campus is. It’s a graduation photographer’s dream! Plus, Duke Chapel is such a marvelous structure (I recently…
