The Ward’s… {North Carolina Family Photographer}

This family is awesome!! 🙂  I have known the Ward’s for years and I love all of them so much.  They are crazy, fun and goofy… and I LOVE IT!!!

Kara has been a dear friend to the family and over the past few years I have gotten to know her more and more and love her more and more… she’s a friend and a mentor and I am sooo thankful for her.  I have babysat one of their four children on numerous occasions… I think my mom would have stolen Mason from Kara if she could have.  Kaitlin (the daughter) is a complete sweetheart and I am so thankful that the summer she was headed to college she was able to come live with me and I love this girl to pieces (fun fact about her… she caught the bouquet at my wedding)!!  Connor and Ian are polar opposites (I think.. :))… Connor is just goofy and a little ball of fire and Ian, well he’s the oldest and he just takes it all in.  Bruce… 🙂 I think you’re a saint to put up with these 5!! Just kidding!!  Bruce is awesome too though, he loves his family and it shows!!

Soo all of that to say… when I was in NC I was able to do a session with this amazing family and we had a BLAST, being around them for that hour made me miss them a whole whole bunch.  Love all 6 of you very much and I am so grateful that each of you is a part of my life… I think y’all should come visit us down here in Texas!!! 🙂  Here’s a few shots from their session…

CC & Chris were married on a beautiful December weekend. The weekend started at Harborside East for their rehearsal & rehearsal dinner. The evening was lively and both CC & Chris were dotted and loved on by their family and friends. It was such a fun evening!! The next day CC’s day started in downtown […]

Nestled in the heart of Highlands, North Carolina, Old Edwards is one of those venues that feels like it was made for moments that matter. Elegant, inviting, and effortlessly timeless, it draws in couples who want more than a pretty backdrop. They want a full weekend surrounded by their people, steeped in joy, and filled […]
