Sweet Carolina Girl

This week we have been in Asheville, N.C. on vacation.  I got the opportunity to take pictures for a loooong lost friend!  We were friends in the 4th grade and she found me on Facebook.  She said that she wished that I lived closer so that I could take pictures of her daughter.  As it turned out, I was going to be in Asheville not too long after that so we set up a time and day and today we got to meet again after 23 years!  And I feel so lucky because her daugther was the PERFECT little model, so sweet!!  I felt like I’ve known her her whole life and I was kind of sad to say, “Goodbye.”  🙁  I will definitely be keeping up with them on Facebook from now on!  Sorry for the number of pictures.  I just love the ones with the umbrella and couldn’t choose!chesnee11

Sweet Babies

Tonight I got to take pictures for my neighbors.  I took pictures of their twins when they were first born and now here they are nearly 4 months old!  They are the cutest, sweetest little things and I LOVED photographing them.  Thank you guys for letting me capture them again!site8site7site6

Earth Momma

Tonight I got to take pictures for a friend and her husband who are expecting their first baby boy.  This was the quickest session I have ever done because a storm was a-brewin’ off in the distance and there was some pretty crazy lightening happening!  But Cynthia was AWESOME with a capital “A”!  She was up for anything I asked her to do and had a lot of her own ideas too.  She was so much fun and so free spirited.  She worked it!!  If you say that you’ve ever seen a more beautiful pregnant woman, you are lying!  😉  She is so gorgeous.  Just imagine what that baby boy is going to look like.  Watch out girls!!  Thank you guys for being so open to my quirky ideas!  I hope you love your pictures!site11site10site9site8site3site7site6

Old School!

A good friend of mine asked me a while back if I would like to take pictures of her daughter and Mya in their Model t.  Ummm, WHAT?!!  YES!!!!  So since that day, I have been so excited about it.  The day finally came today and of course there were a few mishaps, as always when it comes to photographing toddlers in a public place.  Mya was extremely fussy from the vaccinations that she got on Friday and of course we forgot the Motrin and then, just as we were wrapping up, a security guy came and told us we had to leave because of the train.  Perfect timing.  But it was all worth it and I love the way the pictures turned out.  (Thanks so much to my awesome neighbor for loaning us these adorable pettyskirts!!)site12site11site10site7site8site9
