The sweet expression.

This little boy has the sweetest look of innocence-I think it means he will grow up to do a lot of good in the world!

Notice his very good baby hairdo. His Mom Rachel is a GREAT hairdresser who has managed to save me from self-inflicted haircuts-below is a shot of my "Frankenstein" style before I started visiting Rachel.

A Sweet Laddie

We had a visit from this baby boy who is of British descent. He is really so cute-if I was casting a movie set in Scotland, I'd choose him for the part of "rugged handsome Scottish baby".

An Expert in Real Estate

Kathy Tyrrell of Prudential York Simpson Underwood Realty came by for a photo session. She's beautiful & is a great real estate agent (she helped us buy our first house in NC.) We really reccomend her- her website is http://kathytyrrell.pruysu.com/AgentContent/?PageID=1

Baby+brothers+grandma+mom=a really nice family

This group was nice enough to pay us a visit last week. I had fun photographing all 3 generations of this nice family.

June Baby Special

Tell all your expectant & new mom & dad friends! One to four week-old babies who come to PS studio during the month of June will receive 24 birth announcements free of charge!

C is for Cookie

Cookie (named after the Cookie Monster) came in to see us. He is a survivor. He had to go to the NCSU veterinarian hospital (I love them- they've helped some of our dogs out). He had a fast growing kind of cancer. After his treatment, they predicted he would live just a month or two but he's still doing great after 2 years-way to go Cookie! He was a real sweetie!

A Lucky Boy

When my youngest son was a baby, he had a shirt that I loved that said "Lucky Me". (I still have that shirt and Josh is 5 years old!). When this sweet young man came to the studio, "Lucky Me" popped into my head because it is easy to see that he is a well loved baby boy. He is the first grandchild on both sides of the family and he came in with a collection of cute and funny hats- all given to him by friends and neighbors who wish him a life filled happiness & love!

Can this baby be any cuter??!!!

This baby is SO cute I can hardly stand it! He was so sweet and cooperative- he didn't mind being in a basket at all!

Furry Friends

I am so crazy about animals (especially dogs). Here are some of my furry (and human) "babies".

1 year old session

One of my favorite families came in for their daughter's 1 year portraits. It's so fun to see how the personalities of toddlers start to come out. This little girl is very curious and determined (and sweet!).

Happy birthday !

My youngest son turned 5 years old-it's a cliche but time does go by so fast! I remember the day he came into this world like it was 2 minutes ago- we were watching reality TV (an embarrasing fact) and waited almost too long before going to the hospital. Don't forget to give someone you love a hug before too much time goes by. Happy birthday to my little cutie!

A beautiful soon-to-be Mom of 3

We had the pleasure of meeting this expectant Mom and her great family. The kids were so good (and had great manners too!)

And another beautiful soon-to-be Mom of 3

This cool & funny mom definitely has the mom-to-be "glow".

Hope your Valentine's day is filled with lots of

L-O-V-E!!!

Paisley & Bernie Pay a Visit

Two of the CUTEST dogs around!

Things I love about being mom to a 4 year old

Macaroni necklaces

Great family portraits

Someone will come and "fix" you with a doctor's bag when you're down

FINALLY!!! Our new office!

We moved into our brand new office/studio and could not be happier. Bill Cederberg of Cederberg Kitchens & Additions (www.cederbergkitchens.com) designed and built our new space which fits us to a T! They did a fantastic job.

A big thanks to Mark!

I am very grateful for my friend Mark MacAllister for helping me so much with computer angst!
