dear friends | raleigh family photographer

I always am overwhelmed with pure joy when dear friends ask me to photograph their families. I have known these friends since I was little and our families have grown up together. Simply put...I love them as if they were my own siblings and I love that they chose me to capture this moment in their lives!

I always wished I had a sister. There is just something so special about that bond. These girls did not disappoint with their sisterly love!

Sunday I met a new family at Lake Benson Park and the whole shoot just screamed, "fall is here". The leaves, the cooler weather...it just all felt perfect!

Saturday afternoon I spent photographing this family in Pullen Park. I love catching up with old clients and seeing how much their kids have grown!

I just love this family. This is my third year doing their photos and each year I just feel honored that they asked me to capture their joy! I am especially amazed at how grown all three boys look this year. We had a fun, but chilly, morning on the farm!
