On a chilly Sunday afternoon we met up with the Thompson family on Fayetteville Street, in downtown Raleigh to get some great shots for their Christmas cards. These guys were such great sports hiking all over Fayetteville Street, Union Square, Moores Square & City Market. Here’s the peek I posted a few days ago- it’s on of my favorites 🙂 I love this equally in color & black & white. Handsome older brother, Cooper. The boys lucked out and got to go for a little ride in one of the pedal carts. We found the boys ages in one of the parking lots we passed. Thank you Thompson family for braving the cold, and choosing us to photograph your holiday pictures!

Lauren contacted us about doing some photos of her little girl for Christmas several weeks ago at The Point in Mooresville, I was thrilled! I’d heard so many wonderful things about the scenery there, I just couldn’t wait to see it. Side note: I once got offered a job to run their swimming complex, and I turned it down- but it was really cool to see it in person & just how nice that place is! We met up at the “monument” and got a few shots there first. (This is one of my absolute favorites… and I couldn’t decide if I liked it in color or black & white better…. so I’ll post both!) Lauren brought all kinds of awesome props!! The beach down at The Point on Lake Norman is just beautiful! I’d LOVE to do more shoots down there 🙂 Happy Holidays, Lauren, Addison & CoCo!
