So happy to meet baby Phifer, the latest and greatest addition to Liz and David’s family! We photographed Liz and David’s Duke Chapel wedding back in 2018 and it was so wonderful to reunite with them to photograph this new stage in their life. Phifer is an incredibly beautiful and sweet little baby, and she has the best parents to back her up. She also has two older doggo sisters, Murphy and Shepard, who will be there to help her along her way! I spent the morning hanging around Liz and David’s amazing home and garden taking pictures of their sweet little family together. They have the BEST magnolia blanket and also the BEST giant painting of the sea and I want to move in. It was wonderful to see them again and welcome Phifer into the family!

It was a joy to photograph this little family of three! So much joy that I immediately forgot to give them a bat sticker because Wyatt smiled at me with such a happy little baby smile that I was immediately smitten with him and forgot what I was doing. Those eyelashes! Those singular couple of teeth! Wyatt is one year old and is one of the happiest one-year-olds I’ve ever met. He seems to realize that he has it good: a playroom with a ball pit and a tunnel, parents who love him, dogs that also love him, a nursery themed with bugs. What more could you want at ~12 months? He seems both appreciative and thrilled at his good fortune, and smiled for the entire hour I was at their house. He was extremely cooperative. Adriana and Trey were equally as delightful and cooperative, and I’m so glad I finally got a chance to work with them! They love traveling and books and video games and maybe have the best built-in bookcase in all of the land. I had a great time photographing these wonderful people!
I’ve been photographing Katie and Cameron since 2012 somehow (?!) and I am forever grateful to have clients I’ve known for 11+ years! Katie’s become a good friend of mine as we’ve bonded over our love of cats together through the years. She has a strong love for animals and she and Cameron have Tuna (gray kitty), Chevy (black doggo), and Birdie (brown doggo) together, all of which are the sweetest little creatures! Now Katie and Cameron also have two kids – Grayson, who I photographed back in 2018 when he was little, and Finley, who is the latest addition. Grayson is an extremely happy-go-lucky kid. There doesn’t seem to be anything that phases or bothers him. He is just genuinely happy, smiling, and laughing constantly. He’s super active and loves climbing and wrestling and playing with the dogs, and he’s just an overall great kid. Finley is like a smaller child-version of myself. Totally and completely obsessed with cats. Has wild, untamable hair that’s always in her face. Cries easily when overheated. Likes to pick wildflowers. She is amazing and fierce and I can’t wait to see what cat-related business she starts when she grows up. Together they’re a super sweet sibling duo with incredible parents and I’m so lucky to photograph all of them again at their home. A big thanks to Katie and Cameron for sticking with me for 11+ years. That means so much to me and I appreciate and love ya’ll!
