Dellinger-Boyles Family

Once my FB fan page hit 100 likes, I offered a free mini session to a lucky person who liked a specific status. My first "winner" didn't think I was legit, so I did a second drawing and Jenni Dellinger-Boyles won. I was excited to have someone win who I had never met. Jenni is part of the Rock Springs family,  and knew of me through a few teachers who work at the school.  I met Jenni and her four adorable children at Red Wolf Farm at 3:00 pm in bright sunlight...excuse the shadows!

Here are my favorites:

Love her freckles!

Sweet sisters

Lacie

Sadie

Korin

Dodge

What a fun place Red Wolf Farm is! I know we will take Finn next year when he can run around and enjoy all the activities. Thanks, Jenni, for letting me capture your kids!

The Milnes

These adorable twin boys are miracles. Born way before they (and their parents) were ready, they are now growing and happy! However, because of their history, not many people are allowed in the home to visit so that the boys don't get sick. Just a common cold could cause major health issues. With that said, I felt extremely HONORED to be invited into their home to photograph the babies (and their parents).

Angie and I met through my husband (we weren't married then) about 9 years ago. She was the band director at Crest High School in Shelby, NC and needed a guard instructor. Enter Shanti. We worked together for about 4 years, but have remained friends.

Her boys are Andrew and Owen, and her husband is Dennis. Here are my faves:

Andrew

Owen

Owen and Mommy

Daddy and his Boys

Ready for Halloween

Sweet baby feet!

Can't wait to get my lens (and hands) on these boys as they grow through the years!

Travis and Courtney Hays Wedding

Courtney is one of my best friend's sisters. I don't even remember when I met her, but I know it was through Leslie Killian. I was so honored that Courtney asked me to shoot her wedding. The ceremony and reception were at the Peacock Inn in Newton, NC. I could have posted over 100 "favorite" pictures but narrowed it down to fifteen. Here they are!

Beautiful hair

Love the silly photos

Beautiful bouquets (and ladies)

So sweet after the first dance

They were FAR too nice to one another

A sweet moment between Bride and Groom

End of the evening...everyone was having a blast!
