Welcome!

Hi there! Welcome to my blog and thanks for stopping by! Photography is my passion and I feel honored and privileged to share this passion with you.

I became interested in photography when I was in high school. I especially enjoyed the darkroom in my home. It was not until shortly after my first child was born in 1996 that I took up photography again. I have captured many special moments in both of my childrens lives over the years.

It is my aim to capture a bit of the essence and personality of those I photograph in a medium that can be enjoyed for generations. I hope you enjoy my photos and pray that they will be a blessing to you.

I would love to hear from you, if you should wish to leave a comment.

Enjoy...

Christmas Photos at the Beach

We took this families Christmas photos around the end of November.  I love the red shirts.  I moved here to North Carolina from Cleveland about six and a half years ago.  I am still amazed that we can have temperatures in the 60s all winter long.  I really enjoyed working with this family.  The kids were adorable and full of energy.  Here are a few of my favorite shots.

A Boy a Ball and Some Bubbles

I love to photograph young children.  They are totally uninhibited in front of the camera, so it is easy to capture a bit of the essence of who they truly are.  I photographed this young boy last spring and his mother wanted some more photos of him once the leaves changed.  We don’t have a lot of foliage with color here in Eastern North Carolina, but we were fortunate to find a bit in the back yard of her mothers neighbor.  He was a lot of fun, but totally wore me out keeping up with him.

West Craven Senior

This young lady was a pleasure to work with.  She had a great smile and a relaxed pose.  We are blessed with a beautiful historic downtown here in New Bern.  I was able to utilize several areas, including the old Episcopal Church, that George Washington attended.

Sun and Fun

It was a bit brisk, but this family had a lot of fun.  I really enjoyed photographing them and watching how they all enjoyed each others company.

Evening at the Beach

I had a great time photographing a family at the beach a week ago.  The two kids were so adorable and their love for each other really stood out.  Here are a few of the shots.

Birthday Girl

I had the opportunity to photograph a birthday party  recently.  The photos span five generations.  The little girl is so cute and the others look very nice as well.
