Here are a couple of favorites from my most recent expecting shoot and a sneak peek for the proud parents. I had so much fun with Jake and Katie. Katie was even willing to climb rocks for the pictures! I can't wait to take pics of their little boy when he arrives in just a couple of months. Hope you enjoy! I'll be sending the proofs to you soon.

Matt and Becky have been in our lives for a very long time. We all met at Gardner Webb about 15 years ago (I came a couple of years later than they did). Matt was my husband's roommate in college and the best man in our wedding. Becky was one of my bridesmaids and through all the places we've been or thought we would be, we have stayed in touch and remained friends. After all of our youthful comings and goings, we all (I think divinely) ended up living in the High Country and buying houses (inadvertently) right down the street from each other. They are a couple of months away from having their first baby girl (doesn't Becky look A-mazing?!) and we are excited beyond belief. We always talked about raising our kids together, but I don't think any of us expected that it would really happen. God bless the boys that try to date our daughters. They'll both have two dads to answer to! I love you guys! Thank you so much for allowing me to be a photographic part of this journey with you. I had so much fun during our shoot on Sunday. Here are some of my favorite shots! (disclaimer to the public: pregnant women do not belong in trees. I will not do it again. Please don't ask)
I capture emotions. It is as important for me to create a reminder of how you feel as it is for me to capture how you look. My photos are raw and organic with a touch of whimsy. I don’t always wait for everyone to be “just so” before I snap the shot. The best moments are the ones in between that depict the real movement of who you are. I'm not the photographer for everyone nor do I want to be. Look through my images and if the moments I have captured in other people's lives captivate your heart, then maybe I'm the artist for the job.
A little about who I am...
I live in the mountains of North Carolina with my husband, Santiago and my daughter, Isabella. I love spending time with my family. Whether I am riding horses, rock climbing, hiking, trail running or playing soccer in the rain, I love being outside. The earthy grit that makes my life great is what makes my photos great, so if you're up for adventure, and if you love my non-traditional style, I'd love to work with you.
