my favorite things

Sara and I are off to our holiday frivolities until Dec 27th. Until then, enjoy this video from my most favorite Christmas movie of all time.


My modern favorite- this epic 42 song Christmas album by Sufjan Stevens.


Or better yet, you can stream it from your shiny new MacBook Pro that Santa brought (hint, hint)! Click here.

Christmas Stroll

My friend and I took our small crew of "younguns" to see Santa at the downtown Christmas stroll. Much to our dismay, St. Nick was not there, but we were able to keep the kiddies distracted with wagon rides and "shopping". Shopping with two 2 year olds and a 3 years old is really more like herding cats through a china store!

The girls at the Mulehead Cafe.


This is the safest kind of shopping with kids!




The wagon ride was chilly, but fun!

Curious George Goes to the Dentist

My own little "Curious George" had her first visit to the Dentist!

At first she was a bit nervous, but then we practiced opening wide!


She was the best patient ever! The most exciting part was going to the treasure chest for a prize.

Candy Canes and Silver Lanes!

We just photographed the Dunlay family for their Christmas Card. We had a great time playing with the girls at the Dunlay's gorgeous home at Lake Jeanette. Everyone made our job easy, I mean, come on, would you look at this family, they are all so photogenic!


Santa bring on the presents!


Kate is in the giving spirit.

There has got to be rewards after a photo shoot!

crystal + steve

We were really excited to do a loveShoot for Crystal and Steve! We've worked with Crystal on several occasions while shooting at the Hayloft and we knew she'd look great in front of the camera! What a cute couple- they must still have that newlywed glow!

If any of you Brides out there are still looking for a venue, give Crystal a call, she'll take good care of you!

Crystal, Steve and the very handsome, Frank. Smile Frank!


Sara in action








I love this car!




Steve does his best James Dean impression. That's hot.




Nice. You can thank Sara for capturing this proud moment. Hey, at least I didn't rip my pants!

Christmas is in the air!

Future J.Crew catalog models, Caroline and Tate stopped by our farm for a Christmas Card Photo shoot this weekend. Decked from head to toe in the latest fall fashions this super-cute sibling unit knew how to work it! Tate was twirling his little sis around to make her laugh and a little bribery of left over Halloween treats helped too!

stacia + patrick (& millie)

What a beautiful day we had for shooting Stacia and Patrick's loveShoot at Tanglewood Park in Clemmons! We love this park! It is so huge and it has tons of great places to shoot! Plus- this super high-energy duo was up for anything we threw at them!

laura + brandon

Laura is such an amazing girl with exquisite taste in everything from the man she chose to marry to the tiniest details at her wedding! Brandon, Laura, and their guests cozied up at their ceremony at Childress Vineyards. The chill in the air disappeared when you saw the excitement and love between these two!

Love those shoes!


She is so relaxed!






Laura and her girls getting sassy.


Gotta love a redhead!






Taking a quick breather before heading to the reception.


Tonya from Ocassions of the Hart is so creative!


The first dance.


Bye Bye cold weather.....Hello Jamaica!
