W family session… {North Carolina – Family Photographer}

I have known Andrea since college and have always thought the world of her.  I love that we have so much in common… especially that we both married our high school sweet hearts!  I have always wanted to get Andrea & Tim in front of my camera, and when they had their two beautiful girls I wanted even more so to get them in front of my camera.  So when I decided to head to NC for a weekend in October I was supper excited when Andrea said they wanted me to take their family photos.  So a few Sunday’s ago I met them at a park in Raleigh and had so much fun hanging out with them and their girls and photographing them as a family.  Andrea, you are an amazing mom, wife, friend, and such a Godly woman.  I really do look up to you in so many ways.  Hopefully one of these days we’ll get to sit across from each other and catch up in person and not just through email.  Thank you for your support, and your friendship.  Thank you for wanting me to photograph your beautiful family!!  Here’s a few photos from their family session…

I took a trip to Knoxville, TN to document Sarah & Andy’s engagement session.  They wanted to do their session where they will be getting married in 2026 and it was the best decision ever!  Not only did I get to meet and hang out with Sarah & Andy, but I also was able to […]

Greenville, you’ve been a beautiful backdrop—but lately, I’ve fallen hard for something else: private estate weddings. If you’re dreaming of tying the knot somewhere that’s more your world than a checklist, a family home‑turned‑wedding‑day‑stage is where the real magic happens. Why private estates feel so right Authentic comfort from beginning to end It’s your space. […]
