Can I be honest? TODAY. …I am tired.  I am bit crabby.  …It has been a ‘dreary’ Monday with major computer issues slowing down my already-behind-workflow after coming off of  a pretty craptastic weekend. With a week prior of indoors, unhealthy food and the loss of a dear friends father leading to cancelled vacation plans.  […]

Mamarazzi Workshop Recap! (How to Take Rockin' Images of Your Kiddos)

Like I had mentioned in this post…many times our lifestyle portraiture clients give the gift of custom photography to someone they love.  In this case…one sweet mama commissioned us for surprise gift for her hubby’s bday.  After coming up with a cleaver excuse..daddy was booted from the  house and we captured some sweet memories we think he will enjoy.   Take a look, see what we […]

A little gift…. (Lifestyle Children's Photography, Charlotte, NC)

A year ago, Kevin and Mandy were blessed to welcome their first child sweet Baby Zoe into the world.  And lucky me– I have been blessed to spend this past year documenting many parts of  their first year as a family. From excited parents-to-be putting the finishing touches on a nursery,to  a new home, first tut-tu’s and tears, four seasons and now..a first bday. […]

B. One! A Year in the Life of Zoe

So many amazing things have been happening around Bluesky these past few months its pretty humbling to see how far we have come in a few short years.  For example, I awoke this morning and began to check out the typical items I do on any given morning (social media sites, blogs and emails..you get the picture) and lo-and-behold, one of […]

B. Published!: Sugar Row

Tea parties, princess crowns, feather baos…oh, to be 1!  As I get  ‘the wheels back on the wagon’ after a busy, busy holiday season I am beginning to catch up on blogging sessions.  These darling sisters (and their sweet parents too:-)  met me in a secret,  magical spot of woods where the light flows in in fabulous streaks and the greenery […]

B. The birthday girl!

As we (well, Brian actually:-) deck the halls, add a few additional layers of clothing and get ready to head to the mountains for our anual Christmas tree locating adventure I ran across the session images below.  Oh summer, …I do adore you. (Especially when reflected through these sweet, sweet faces.) And though you are packed away in a box for the next few months while we enjoy your […]

B. Sweet

I love every session.  I really do.  Cliche’ as it may be–having the ability to document a certain day, week, moment in someone’s life really is an honor.  But somedays….something just ‘clicks’…a combination of circumstances, lighting, happiness or chaos…the moment is just ‘perfect.’  And this session, ladies and gentlemen was one of those. When I met the Kalgren family ‘littlest’ […]

B. The Birthday Boy! (Happy 1st Bday sweet Nicholas)

Wow!  Exhilarated.  Exhausted. And definitely playing a whole lot of catch up after 2 weeks of what my friends are referring to as my ‘Eat, Pray, Love’ trip.  Ha.  (What an awesome book, right?) SO much to say but I think I need to just sit back, reflect a bit and take it all in. (and, of course, edit, place orders, schedule sessions…promise!)  But I […]
