Fort Fisher │ Merritt Family Fall Session
When a wonderful past bride, Amy, contacted me (see their engagement session here, their amazing wedding post will be up sooooooooon) to schedule a family session for her maid of honor Michelle, I was so excited! Michelle was pregnant with their little boy at the wedding, and has an adorable 3 year old daughter, Chloe who I could not wait to photograph again. They chose a favorite location, Fort Fisher, which never disappoints.

Once Chloe had finished picking out her outfit, she joined us for our little walk exploring around Fort Fisher. She couldn't wait to push the buttons on my camera (which is typically the bribe I use for the kiddos to find a little patience when the photo session is almost over) and was absolutely adorable from start to finish!
How stinkin' cute is Chloe? I asked her to show me her favorite happy face and this is what she did:
She is the best!
The sweetest moments from our fall photo session at Fort Fisher came when Chloe got to hold her new little brother all by herself. She was so proud!
Thank you Merritt Family for spending the evening with me and my camera! I loved seeing you again and can't wait until the next round! Your family is absolutely wonderful.
Oak Island │Family Session
On what was quite possibly the windiest day I have ever experienced in my life, Courtney & her lovely family and I headed out to the beach for their family photo session while they were visiting North Carolina! It was so great to see them and to meet their newest little one, Tucker, who is an absolute doll. So adorable! The key to a family session with weather circumstances that are less than ideal, I have found, is to go with the flow and let the little ones have as much fun as they possibly can. These images capture their children just being kids and enjoying the beach, their family spending some time together on one of the last days of their North Carolina vacation and introducing their new baby to the ocean. Loved having you all in front of my lens, cannot wait to see you all next trip!
