I have posted photos of Ryleigh on here before, but never as a 4 month old! She has the sweetest personality! She loves her Bumbo seat and loves to sit up in it. I adore the flower headband that she has on! Thanks to my friend Lauren for making three for me.
This will be Ryleigh's first Christmas so of course she has to have a Santa dress and a bag full of toys...
Different dress, a little moodier with the light...
Remember Where's Waldo? Well, where's Ryleigh?
Oh baby!!! LOVE this!!!
Thank you for coming to play with me!!! I can't wait until you are sitting up on your own and its time to do again! :-)

N & E! [SC Children's Photographer]
N & E's Mom met me at Milliken to capture some images with the last fall leaves of the season. They were such spirited, happy children and I enjoyed this session so much! I wish I could show them all to you!
Don't they look natural in the one above? You would have never guessed they were bribed to hug! :-)
Can you believe these eyelashes...
and these eyes??? Love the color!!!
Also love the hat! How cute is E?
N!
This may be one of my favorite of these two together.
Thanks for taking the time to come out and play with me!!! I had fun and can't wait to do it again!

Jill and Michael Get Married! [Spartanburg SC Wedding Photographer]
Halloween was a gorgeous day for getting dressed up. No, not that kind of dressed up, this kind -- the wedding kind! Jill and Michael were married on a beautiful fall afternoon, and then danced into the night at Cleveland Park.
These are the shoes. I love shoes. I love silver shoes...
Jill's attendants gave a new meaning to the word. They were incredible and attentive to her every need.
The first look. I LOVE this!
The flowers smelled so good!
Cinderella walking down the aisle. I'm not including many ceremony photos but I had to show you this. I love this dress!
Married Jill with the foliage at Cleveland Park.
Isn't she beautiful?
This dress was made for her!
The little ones were So good the entire time! I didn't hear a single complaint!!!
I guess I'd better show you Michael with Jill! This was at the end of the night, just before I left. A lot of couples are tired by then and no longer want to see a camera, much less take photos, but Michael and Jill snuggled right up and did a mini-session before I left. How perfect is this Bride and Groom???
Congratulations you two! I know your lives will be filled with laughter, dancing and football for many years to come!!!!

Senior Photographer SC, NC
Two seniors = twice the fun!
Taylor and Taylor are best friends who came down from NC to have their Senior pics taken. These girls were so much fun -- we had a ball! There is no way I could come close to posting even half of the images that we got so I am settling on a few of my favorite. Enjoy!!!
Of course I did slideshows...
