Sanders Family Pictures | A Saxapahaw, NC Family Photographer

The family on my blog today is one that is very special to me! I nanny part-time for the Sanders family and so I've spent many hours with their children, Jack and Lib. I was so happy to be able to do a mini session for them at Saxapahaw last weekend. I absolutely adore their pictures and I think they're a very accurate representation of their children! Lib is full of energy and she's constantly talking and laughing! I spend a lot of my time with Lib while Jack is in school and we have SO much dancing and singing to all of the latest pop songs, playing dress up, and going for walks. I think these pictures really show off her personality! I mean, she looks like she could be a baby model!! I've also really enjoyed getting to know Jack! Jack is very kind, gentle, and thoughtful. He's also one of the smartest children I've ever met! Sometimes I'm amazed at the things he knows! Here's a few of my favorites from the Sanders session:

Edwards Family Pictures | A Saxapahaw, NC Photographer

I had a wonderful time with the Edwards family this week during their shoot! We met at Saxapahaw on a gorgeous Monday evening. Saxapahaw is quickly becoming one of my favorite places to do shoots (in fact, I love it so much that I'm going there this afternoon to do a few mini-sessions!).

The Edwards go to Grace Reformed, my church here in Mebane, and I enjoyed getting to know their sweet family better during their session. They are a lot of fun and full of personality and they were naturals in front of the camera! I think their bright and happy personalities really shine through these photos.

Sally and Eric's Engagement Pictures | A Saxapahaw, NC Photographer

Due to the cold winter days, It's been a few months since I've done a full shoot and so I was really looking forward to getting back into the swing of things and doing Sally and Eric's engagement shoot. We couldn't have asked for a more beautiful day! It was sunny and 70 degrees and it felt like spring has officially arrived! 

We chose to do Sally and Eric's session at one of my favorite places in the world: Saxapahaw, NC. My husband and I frequented Saxapahaw regularly when we were dating and we still love to go back as often as possible. Sally, Eric, and I wandered around the woods for a while and got some great pictures along the Haw river. Then we went to the balcony of Cup 22 (my all time favorite coffee shop!) and got some beautiful shots of them just as the sun was setting.

Sally and Eric, I had a wonderful time with you and I can't wait for your wedding in July!!
