My last homecoming at Camp Lejeune happened to be a “bonus” homecoming for the evening 🙂 1/6 sent 2 companies home together but their homecoming was about an hour apart. After the Smith’s headed home,Julie Stone heard another wife’s photographer had catastrophic equipment failure and I was able to step in and cover the Brown family as well. […]

And here it is, my last session as a resident of NC – although I’m sure I’ll be back soon (and often!), I am sorely missing my home and friends at Camp Lejeune. Colleen is one of my dear friends and as you can see, she is pregnant with Miss Keira. I’m anxiously awaiting the […]

You might remember Malorie and Andrew from the session they did while he was home on R&R. You’ll also recognize her work in many, many of my newborn sessions – Malorie is the one I call when I need the most beautiful knitted things ever. I’m famous for calling last minute needing matching elf hats or mermaid […]

This past Monday was my last day of homecomings while we live here at Camp Lejeune. Even though we are ready to start our next chapter, I am feeling very sad about leaving this town. It will be especially hard not to be here for the amazing homecomings. For those of you who haven’t experienced […]

The night of our going away party I re-he-eally didn’t want to get up at 2:00 am to go to work. I had just gotten in bed and was cozy and warm when I got they call, they were on their way. Anyone remember that Dunkin Donuts commercial? “Gotta make the doughnuts…” Anyway, I got there just before […]
the branch family | MCAS New River Photographer
There are a handful of families that I have the pleasure of meeting every few months – and this family is one of my favorites! I met the Branch’s when Jessica was pregnant and then again when Abram was first born and every 3 months since then. This last time was to say “See you […]

The last time I photographed this couple it was at sunrise in the dead heat of summer, so it’s only fitting that this time around it is winter and midnight =)

Babies come in their own timing and this little one wouldn’t wait for me to come back from our Christmas leave 😉 This is my dear friend, Holly’s, baby boy. I would have loved to witness his birth, but he was is the good hands of the rest of Holly’s birth team – Dad/Husband Travis […]
sherman family | Swansboro, NC Newborn Photographer
Here is another catch-up post 🙂 This little man gave me a run for my money, but his dad knew just how to get him to dream land. It is always wonderful to photograph several generations welcoming a great-grandchild, and Mr. B’s family was no exception! The Sherman family was a referral from one of […]

I think Chandra has an artist’s soul. She did ballet, plays guitar and when we met she was about as warm and friendly as you can be. Thank you both for letting me photograph your “Journey” to welcoming a baby girl into your lives.

Miss A is a miraculous little thing. She was born 10 weeks early by emergency C-Section. Her dad was rushed back to the states from deployment to be by her and her mom’s side and they spend 6 long weeks in the hospital. Here we are 6 months later and if her mom hadn’t shared […]
jones family | Camp Lejeune, NC Homecoming Photographer
At 36 weeks pregnant with her 2nd baby girl, I was really hoping I’d get to also photograph a labor & delivery that night…. but baby ‘K’ wasn’t ready quite yet. When I last saw Lauren at her oldest daughter’s 6 month session, her husband was serving overseas for a full year. I had just […]
