Downtown Fun {Columbia, SC Children’s Photographer}

Meeting up with these precious girls was such a blessing:)  They were oh so sweet, and, oh so beautiful.  The girls seemed to have an awesome time playing with the leaves, running and jumping and I was just hanging out trying to keep up:)  Here’s a quick sneak peak from the session for the sweet family!

Enjoy!

Just the Girls [Columbia, SC Family Photographer]

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,

Sweet Little Boy [Columbia, SC Children's Photographer]

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:)

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.  bragg-1850-bw

[Columbia, SC Family Photographer] Family of Three

One of my close friends referred this family to me for a photo session and I’m so glad they did.  As it turns out, they go to Church where my daughter goes to Christian School.  I didn’t find that out until the end of our session, but I feel that it was a God thing we ended up taking photographs that day. 

Seeing the love of Christ with this family was so encouraging.  They’re beautiful AND sweet.  What more could you ask for?

[Columbia, SC Photographer] Recent Family Photography

These past couple of weeks could not have been better.  I had the most amazing time with my family over Thanksgiving and then my Gamecocks won against our state rival, Clemson.  I guess you could say that I’ve been in a celebration mode since then.  And, what’s to come.  Why it’s Christmas!  A couple of weeks on Cloud 9 and then back to normal.  Hopefully, I’ll stay there, lol:) 

 

My clients over the past couple weeks have been amazing, no matter what state university they were from.

[Columbia, SC Children's Photographer] Round Three

I’ve had the pleasure of photographing this little monkey since he was a baby…and, now he’s walking and talking and everything else.  Well, he’s actually been walking since before he was 1, but that’s another subject.  All I have to say to lil C now when taking his photograph is, “Climb up on this…and climb up on that.”  He’s oh-so-the-best climber and he makes it look so easy. 

Our session began with Mr. C wanting to hold onto a can of almonds that he wouldn’t relinquish.  Mom and I hid then and I snuck them in my bag, which kept him peanut free the remainder of the session.  Here are some of the precious photographs from our day!  Love you both:)

[Columbia, SC Family Photographer] Christmas in garnet

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.

[Columbia, SC Family Photography] Carolina Charm

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:)

Precious One Year Old [Columbia, SC Family Photographer]

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!
