I love going back to Clemson! So, I was super excited when this family decided they wanted their photos taken on campus this week. Everything was beautiful and it reminded me again of why I love Clemson so much.
The scenery created a beautiful backdrop for this beautiful family. I love seeing multiple generations gather together and these three generations have so much love for one another.
I was looking forward to this event for weeks! I was contacted by their daughter because she was throwing her parents a very special 50th Wedding Anniversary. When Karen and Scott were married fifty years ago, they eloped. There was no church ceremony, first dance, cutting cake, or reception. They now were able to experience all of that - even the ceremony - thanks to their two children. It was a very special surprise for everyone involved. Family lined up as their bridal party and friends gathered to watch them renew their vows.
Most of my time with newborn sessions consists of babies sleeping the entire time. Not Jaxon! He wanted to be wide awake and alert the entire time. He can already hold his little head up and was definitely showing off that new skill. He was such a joy and oh, so precious.
I was able to meet precious Callahan at 6 weeks old and he has the cutest facials and the fuzziest hair. It's all adorable!
There was so much laughter today with these cousins! With such a close family, love was abundant, jokes were aplenty, and smiles were contagious.
With slightly cooler weather, beautiful scenery, and all of this entertainment, I couldn't have asked for a better evening behind the lens.
The heat has been brutal lately but this beautiful family gathered four generations together and conquered it! Despite the bugs, the warm weather, and the bumpy ride, I so enjoyed the scenery a local horse farm had to offer.
Family is so special and I was honored to help capture these moments that they can cherish as they travel back home and leave states between them.
It's hard to believe that all of the school items are already filling the shelves at each store! Summer is flying by...but I do love seeing everyone's first day of school photos :)
Back to School Mini Sessions will be held August 10 (in Honea Path) and August 13 (in Pelzer) and are only $50! There are very limited spots for each day so don't miss out and sign up today!

Photography has given me the opportunity to meet so many incredible new people. Without this business I would have never met the wonderful family I met tonight who just welcomed their second daughter.
I met the bravest, strongest, most determined little girl today. She just recently turned two months old - even though her due date wasn't supposed to be until mid-August. Isabella and her family have an incredible story that is just beginning.
Instead of celebrating her baby shower this May, Kristen delivered her 26 week old baby via emergency c-section. Fear, chaos, and the unknown all swarmed this family and their sweet baby. They chose to trust in the Lord instead of in doubt and now they are counting down the days for Bella to come home.
God has done miraculous things with Bella. She is truly an inspiration for us all. I had the absolute privilege to visit with them in the NICU and take a few photos of sweet Bella. She is wide-eyed and growing so much everyday. I have no words to describe the pure love that was written all over her parent's faces as they just smiled at her.
Bella, I can't wait to see what amazing things you do!
Baby Liam was all about snoozing this afternoon in the shade.
Who could blame him though, the weather was nice and he was all snuggled up in soft blankets.
This just melts my heart.
And brings a smile to my face.
The beauty of a newborn is beyond words.
He brings so much love to his family.
And it's easy to see why.
This wide-eyed beauty was the most calm and precious newborn! Her dark hair and beautiful eyes will melt your heart.
She has such loving, sweet parents.
And let's not forget her furry guardian.
Baby Hattie, welcome to the world!
This little girl enjoyed an evening tea party with her daddy and it was absolutely precious to watch.
She was on the go at the park watching a group of kids play soccer, ducks swim in a small pond, and dogs walking by but when it was time to sit down with her daddy to enjoy "tea" she paid attention to only that.
This was a fun Daddy + Me session and it was wonderful to watch the bond between this daddy and his daughter.
"More tea please!"
Sometimes you get lucky and get a coworker who becomes a great friend and you get to know each others families. I'm honored to witness the love this family has for each other. With a recent anniversary and birthday, it was a great time to have family photos taken!
They've raised two beautiful daughters.
They've built dreams together and loved one another unconditionally.
Happy Birthday Tammy, I hope this day was as wonderful as you are!
Oh, sweet baby girl! She is so loved by her parents and family.
There were smiles, kisses, hugs, and laughs galore in honor of her arrival.
And a lot of snoozing.
Not only does her name come from loved ones, so did her coming home outfit as well as this beautiful bassinet. Everything passed down with love.
But there were plenty of new things too to show off- bows, frills, and orange Tiger paws :) She'll be a Clemson fan (for at least as long as her parents have a say)!
Wow, talk about a picture perfect family! The sunset was a beautiful backdrop for this family session.
There is a lot of love and laughter in this family.
With two children growing up and graduating, these moments are special to capture.
If I've learned anything from photographing children it's that you have to let them do their own thing! You can't pose them and expect for them to sit there for five minutes while you get the shot. But, candid shots are what I love the most.
This beauty is soon turning two and she captured the camera by being herself.
A little apprehensive at first, but her adorable personality soon showed itself.
Happy Birthday sweet girl!
Congratulation to this beautiful bride who married the love of her life this past weekend. I wish you many, many happy years together.
They brought her home at 11 days old. It's been the only home, the only family, and the only love she's ever known. For the last 842 days, this beautiful little girl shared everything with this family, except her name.
Well, today that all changed and she officially became "part of the family."
I am crying as I write this because I've witnessed on so many occasions the love they have for sweet Anna Grace and today they get to make that love known to the world.
The courtroom was bursting with family and friends that have all supported this family and were overjoyed when the adoption was made official.
I don't think there was a dry eye in the room and even the Judge could see how much love there is for this little girl.
God chose this family for this little girl and the blessing they received with her is written all over their face every time they smile.
It was a wonderful day witnessing this love and the glory they give to God for bringing her into their lives.
Here are a few of my favorite photos from the last few months with Anna that I never got to post :)
Still looking for a great gift for Dad? Book a Daddy + Me Session during the month of June and the price is only $50.
