Holden Beach, NC │ Beam Family

February 18, 2021 by Tiffany Abruzzo

Julia Ann, Carlos & William are old pros when it comes to photo sessions with me! I believe this is our third time together and they are always so polite, sweet & fun! Really great kiddos! Our last photo session was at Fort Fisher, one of my all time favorite locations in the greater Wilmington, NC area. This time we popped over to Holden Beach and let the kids run around like maniacs, and that my friends is how you get genuine smiles out of kids of all ages!

Fall Mini Sessions │ Sears Family

February 18, 2021 by Tiffany Abruzzo

Whenever I get the chance to meet up with the Sears family, I jump at it! We spent the evening at Holden Beach for their golden hour photo session and it was so beautiful. Their daughter Birdie is just the cutest little thing, so bright and adorable! She makes the whole experience fun. She’s such a little ham for the camera which of course, I love!

Occoquan Regional Park Family Session │Lorton Virginia

January 28, 2020 by Tiffany Abruzzo in 2020, Family Session, Virginia

Can I just start by saying how much I love this beautiful family? Over the years I have seen their sweet Family of 3 has grown to a Party of Six! I feel so incredibly lucky to not only have been introduced to this bunch years ago, but to keep being asked back to document their family as they grow over the years. You are the best! Love you guys!

Fort Fisher │ Merritt Family Fall Session

October 13, 2017 by Tiffany Abruzzo in Family Session, 2017

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.

Richlands │Baby Kieran

January 04, 2017 by Tiffany Abruzzo in Newborn

Handsome little Kieran.

You may remember Katy & Peter from their recent Fort Fisher sunset maternity session (if not, you should check it out right here). Recently, I changed the way I photograph newborns in that I no longer carry a ton of props with me, or rely on baskets and bowls to tuck them into. I do think that style is adorable, but I am loving simply coming to your home and photographing how you are as a brand new family. I love to watch you interact, see how your little one snuggles into you, walk around your nursery and just photograph your baby in their most beautiful, simple light. As a parent, those first moments seemed so fleeting and I would have loved to have someone photograph our first days together just being.

Fort Fisher │Family Session Andrea

January 04, 2017 by Tiffany Abruzzo

Andrea and her adorable kiddos Jaimie, Connor and baby Delaney came to visit their family in NC this summer, and called me up to schedule a sunset photo session at gorgeous Fort Fisher. I swear, the most beautiful people keep booking me, would you look at these perfect little faces? Love them! Anyone who has taken a toddlers photo knows it typically involves about a million squats, and lots of sprinting, and with me, a lot of talking to your little ones to get them to open up and have some fun. I have always loved kids, and being able to photograph them as they really are, not just as they are when posed, is one of my favorite things to do!

Downtown Wilmington │The Spine Family

June 10, 2016 by Tiffany Abruzzo in 2016, Family Session, wilmington nc

I tell you what, give me a downtown Wilmington early morning photo shoot with the Spine family any day! Adorable children, great parents, beautiful weather and no one out and about yet, the downtown area was basically ours for the taking. Perfect! Ashley & Joel, I loved spending time with your little family and it's such a bonus that we all happen to live in the same neighborhood with kids about the same age! Friends, Mason & Harper are about to make you say "awww" a time or two, you've been warned... ;)

Oak Island │The Steele Family

May 05, 2016 by Tiffany Abruzzo in 2016, Family Session

The Steele Family was due for an updated family photo shoot, seeing as our last family shoot was at Fort Fisher for Kristen's maternity photos! Time flies when you're having fun, and the next thing you know you've done Marshall's newborn shoot and over a year or so passes... Kristen and I decided to set a date and head out to Oak Island for a sunset beach session with her boys!

Hope Mills │ Joaquin

April 05, 2016 by Tiffany Abruzzo in 2016, Family Session, Lifestyle Photography

Keally and Chris are clients who hold a special place in my heart. You can check out their wedding, their beautiful sunflower field maternity & their newborn sessions with just a teeny little mouse click :) Last week, I was able to spend a little time with their ADORABLE six month old baby boy, Joaquin, and my camera and I are in love!!! This session was great because we didn't do a ton of poses, we simply let Joaquin enjoy the sunny day in his front yard with his parents and I snapped away at their family spending time together, my absolute favorite way to photograph family moments!

Wrightsville Beach, NC │ Family Session Revisit with Stacey

February 13, 2016 by Tiffany Abruzzo in Family Session, wilmington nc

It's so awesome to look back through an older photo session and find a new favorite or two that somehow stands out to you more now than it may have originally. These photos were so sweet when I first posted them a few years back, but looking back through them now and seeing how TEENY her kiddos were, and those "mom looks" that I see on Stacey's face as she looks at her beautiful babies, full of pride and love... these photos are so worth a little revisit. Stacey and her little tribe are some of my favorites and frequent the blog, and I may have a few adorable photos of her sister & niece when Baby Jay was soooooooo new for a little added bonus :)
