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:)
This year has been so tremendous in terms of meeting new families and friends. I am so blessed to have met the people that have come into my life because of photography. 
This family was so calm and willing to try whatever. And, wait until you scroll down and look at Little C. He’s one handsome little man. I couldn’t take my eyes off of him. We were going for mostly photographs for the family Christmas Card, but I couldn’t help but snap a few of the cute little one. Here are a few from the day.
Several emails led us to meet this past weekend at the USC Horseshoe. The setting was quite fitting for the former-Texas-family- NOW - USC-Gamecock-Athletic-family:) We’re most happy that they made Columbia, South Carolina HOME.
Next comes…their CHILDREN. From the moment I picked the lil’ lady up, she was laughing and laying on my shoulder {sigh}. I must say, I’m typically a ‘sucker’ for babies. Yet, this time I was smitten with the almost two – year old…and probably, because when I walked up to her and said hello she let me pick her up first try. I’m a mother of a child who doesn’t do that, so I almost melted like butter. After a little warming up and getting to know one another, I was able to hold the baby boy. Then, I became smitten with both. On to photographs:)
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!
I recently had the pleasure to capture the images for a family that will definitely be cherished for a lifetime. When the mother of the charming little girls below first contacted me, she mentioned that she was visiting family and wanted to capture Four Generations of Women while she was visiting her family. Time presented a rush since she and her girls would soon be flying back to Paris, France…where they’ve lived the past couple years…and love it she says! I, too, remember how important it was for me to have a photograph taken with my daughter, me, my mother and grandmother together…so when I listened to the message I just knew I had to make arrangements in my schedule to accomodate. The weather for our time together (and for the entire day for that matter) was less than cooperative, but we still we able to capture some beautiful images that I hope this mom will love forever and ever.
