Amanda is the very talented gal behind Virilovely Designs, a custom papergoods company located here in Charlotte. I was so excited when she contacted me to capture her extended family while on vacation at Holden Beach. Beach sessions continue to make my heart sing, summer after summer, capturing families, couples and even weddings just doesn’t get old to me! I’ve currently got TWO spots left for August, so let me know if you want one!

Several years ago I met up with Radhika and Ian for a session at Ft. Fisher. I loved getting to know them and follow them these last few years. Fast forward, and they are about to welcome a baby next month! I cannot wait for these two to become parents and join this sorority/fraternity Jeremy and I have become part of… yay for someone else to commiserate the ups and downs of parent life with!! Carolina Beach is obviously one of our favorite spots since we have a house there, but it hosts an array of nooks and crannies to photograph in as well. I never tire of photographing people there. With plenty of pretty spots to use as backdrops, it makes my job dreamy. We started out in a little neighborhood just down the street from our house, it’s a spot of desired to photograph a couple for a long time…. and this was the perfect opportunity! I am sure I will be back for more sessions here! All images are Kodak Portra 400, shot on a Pentax 645N, 105mm lens. The next set were taken down on the beach…. no need to lug my gear to a tropical island, film captures these colors so perfect right here in North Carolina!

Last month I hosted mini sessions using my antique, wicker buggy at a studio in Charlotte. I just loved getting to photograph multiple baby girls that morning in the buggy. My mom bought the buggy when I was little from a auction, the wicker was shredded and she had it re-woven. I wish I knew more about her love for the piece, as she really had no use for it, haha! It lived in the corner of our den the whole time I was growing up, then my sister took it and now it lives in Kate’s nursery. Here are a few of my favorite images from my session with baby gal, Athena!
