Carolina Girls, that is! And, this photograph reminds me of the best of times with us Carolina Girls. Soon she’ll be learning to do the shag, but for now, she looks like she has it all under control with her cute expression and little curtsey:)
Recently I met up Downtown with these adorable girls and their charming mother. We started off just chatting about girl stuff and the next thing you know we were laughing and carrying on. That’s the kind of thing that I love to have happen, you know:) And, it makes me grin inside when that carries over to the photographs.
I haven’t finished editing the photos from our session, but I wanted to post a quick sneak peak of the three girls together. More to come soon.
With Love,
A

This little boy was such a joy to photograph! He was so easy going (and I remember during the session I wondered if it was for real) because of his age. He didn’t seem to mind anything that we tried. I can’t wait to see him when he’s walking:)
Is there a deserving family that you’d like to bless? If so, please comment with your story and nominate that special family.
I’ve had the opportunity to read about what other photographers across the country are doing for families in need in their community. Many of these families are going through some trials in there life and complimentary photographs seem to just bring a smile to peoples face. One photographer Cristina Coco just announced the family she’d be photographing a couple weeks ago. Reading her blog prompted me to do the same and reach out to someone deserving of something that they might not otherwise have been able to do. And, that’s what life’s about isn’t it? Sharing our God-given talent with others. Seems as if it’s a win-win for everyone involved.
So nominate a special family and share a few things about why you’d like them to receive a day of photography. We’ll include several prints for the family, as well.
There’s nothing more special than ’family’…and, I can’t wait to meet this one. Winner will be announced on Valentine’s Day. Check my blog for information or email me with questions.

xxoo,

This family could not have been easier to work with!!! The mother was so prepared, the father was along for the ride, and Little E was probably as close to perfect as one can be at 1~
We had such a great time in Downtime Columbia at the Horseshoe. We had thought about several locations but Mom’s father went to Carolina and she thought the Horseshoe would be perfect for family memories. I couldn’t agree more:) The weather was not so great for our first session, so this was our reschedule and I’m so glad we did b/c every single photograph of E was adorable…which made if quite difficult for me to select the favorites of the day.
Thanks again B Family for allowing me to share in your special day with E. You all were wonderful! I hope you enjoy!
We’ll be offering Holiday Photo Sessions on Saturday, October 17th and November 7th from 9 am to 2 pm. This will be an all-inclusive session that’s perfect for Holiday Portraits and Photo Cards. For more information please email amy@amymcwatty.com or call 361-7486.
I have been sick for several days now…AND my daughter has too…ugh! Which has left me somewhat behind updating my blog. I had such good intentions this week to get caught up on here, but a little bug got in my way. In the meantime, I thought I’d leave you with an image of the beach. It seems like yesterday that summer was just beginning and we were just putting our toes deep within the sand. Now we’re back to reality.
:Sigh: I can definitely sympathize with you parents out there trying to take amazing photographs of your children. This summer I attempted to do so; and while I did get a handful of good images…it ended up being more stressful than rewarding. Hence why I typically hire out this kind of thing, lol:) Actually, one of my photography friends emailed me a couple months ago asking about our beach portraits and at the time I didn’t have our summer vacation planned. Now I wish I had of hired her this summer because I really could have used a great album called “Summer 2009″ to add to the coffee table.
