Modeling Shoot Tomorrow

 

Tomorrow morning I have a shoot scheduled with a friend of mine that is pursuing modeling for the second time – post children.  I am really looking forward to this experience, as well as capturing images of my gorgeous friend!

Here are a few inspirational images that she sent me (LOVE them all):

 

 

We’re going for an urban setting – so we’ll see what we get when we cross some of these inspirations with our location.  Will share!

She Got Her Ears Pierced

 

Lots of fun happenings in my household this summer.

My baby girl got her ears pierced.  Not even one tear!

 

 

And of course she chose the ‘diamond’ studs …

Camping in Mortimer, NC

 

Every year, the weekend school is out,  we round up the kids and the dogs and head for the mountains!  It’s becoming our annual tradition.  I love to camp and am glad that my children love it just as much.  There’s something so wonderful about no electricity & no cell phones!  Not to mention the amazing playground that nature creates for us.

Here are a few of my favorite shots from our camping weekend :

Father’s Day

I know it’s a week late, but wanted to share with you what I gave my husband for Father’s Day.

Snapped this image while practicing a few poses with them – just goofing around.

Love when I get THE moment!

Holmes/Gruenewald Engagement | Raleigh Cary Triangle Portrait Engagement Photographer

 

She’s a teacher.  He’s in the army.  The stars were aligned for these two.

They met on Facebook.  She was searching for a member of the military for her 4th grade class project.  When she saw his profile picture, nose to nose with who will be their flower girl, it was destiny.  Not to mention she loved his apple cheeks!  She sent a friend request to him, and he proceeded to write back a novella (that they still laugh about).  They exchanged numbers & talked for hours.

They met for a first date.  The first time he saw her out of the car window he thought to himself, “man, she’s pretty.  I better not screw this one up!”  And obviously he didn’t!

He proposed to her on the bench under the infamous Davie Poplar tree on the campus of the University of North Carolina.  This tree is over 300 years old, and legend has it that as long as the tree is standing, your love will last.  I have no doubt that love will last for these two … their strength and commitment is evident in their actions & simply way they look at each ….

 

 

They were such troopers during their session – the weather was nothing short of hot.  But you can’t blame ALL the steam on the weather…

 

 

LOVE this hallway for them … and for her.  RAWR!
