J.Maternity | Camp Lejeune Maternity Photographer | Camp Lejeune, NC

Two years before I shot this beautiful momma-to-be's maternity photos I was photographing her and her fiance at their engagement session. No I didn't shoot a wedding and didn't tell you all but they really wanted engagement photos so she hired me. It is still one of my favorite couples sessions to this day and unfortunately I wasn't into blogging back then so I can't even link it back (*SIGH*). Flash forward to this past October when my sweet friend Jillian came over and we went down the road and got her some GORGEOUS maternity shots!!

N.Couple | First Anniversary Session | Camp Lejeune Couples Photographer

Not to many people ask me to style a session for them. It kind of bums me out because I think customizing sessions to speak about you as a family, couple, what have you is not only fun but important. Having photos done isn't just about having PHOTOS DONE. It's about capturing the moment and who you are as a couple/family/person.

I'm usually choked up at homecomings. The build up to this homecoming was more than the homecoming itself. But it was a homecoming no less and it's always sweet to see families reunited!!

T.Family | New River Military Homecoming | New River Homecoming Photographer

I've photographed my fair share of homecomings but nothing like this one. This was my first time experiencing a homecoming at an air station where the Marines flew in as we stood and watched! An emotional homecoming for sure as I sat and watched Momma and her little guy welcome home their Marine.

OOOOOH HOMECOMINGS!!!!!! Such an emotional time!! I have so missed capturing these special moments! Three years at Quantico was great but homecomings are pretty much non-existent there! This lovely family was my first homecoming here at Camp Lejeune and I am honored to have been there to capture it for them!

The Chronicles of EB: Norm and the Over-sized Button-up | Three Months Old

Ok so at this point I'm just playing catch up!! This kid is growing faster than I would like and faster than I can keep up with!! He'll be turning 5 months old and when I took his 4 month photos I thought I would be caught up finally...well I was wrong...

The Chronicles of EB: Norm & the Over-sized Button-up | Two Months Old | Watch EB Grow

WOW! So I may be a month late with this but raising a kid is hard work! He grew so much from one to two months. I don't even know where the time is going but it certainly needs to slow down.

Baby A. | Lifestyle Newborn | Stafford, VA

Pink. Teal. Aqua. Coral. Frilly. Gold. Beautiful. GIRLY. Just a few things that come to mind when looking at these photos. Baby A sure is loved by her momma and daddy and lets not forget about her fury big brother!

The Chronicles of EB: Norm & the Over-sized Button-Up | One Month Old | Watch EB Grow

Hello, my photography fans! WELCOME, to the newest (and first!) blog series for KCP. When I found out I was pregnant, well let's face it, even before I was pregnant, I knew I would have to figure out a Watch Me Grow series for my littles. The ever so lovely Amanda of Amanda Hedgepeth Photography was my initial inspiration for doing a series on the blog. Sure I thought about doing the typical sticker watch me grow deal but when I got serious about my photography with nice equipment, I vowed I would use it for my personal life and it wouldn't just sit in my camera bag waiting for the next session.
