Sage Farm Family Photography Session

In my hometown of Powellsville, NC

For those of you who are new around here—welcome! Although I consider myself a Durham-ite, I do have to pay tribute to my hometown located in Eastern, NC.

My sister and I have been finding ourselves home more often. I dont know about you, but whenever I go home I feel this sort of nostalgia that I cant recreate at any other place. Our hometown consists of rural farmland. The prettiest thing you could ever see coming home to your parents house is the endless amount of sage fields. Some are purple, some white, some mixed…all beautiful and quite calming as you drive by.

To document my sister and her family this year, we decided to do their annual family portraits in the sage. Absolutely gorgeous! Everyone, meet my sister, brother in law, and kids (oh, and there are some photos of our mom sprinkled in there, too!).

And while we are at it, I am going to share some more fun images we took in Grancy’s back yard! For those of you wondering, my mom Nancy, has picked her grandmother name to be Grancy. Brilliant, right? Those images will be near the bottom.

Deana, Bobby, and Savannah

Welcome to the world, Miss Savannah

Some positivity for you on this quarantined day in Durham. The best part about quarantine? I now have SO much more time to blog the prettiest sessions! Oh, and today I am sharing with you the sweetest little family session that took place near my home town in Williamston, NC. For all of you who do not know where this is, its about 40 minutes north of Greenville, NC.

You may remember some familiar faces when you see this family session. Deana and Bobby are a past wedding couple of mine (you can see their wedding on the blog HERE) , and I am just smitten that they asked me to photograph their newest family member, Savannah. Their session started on their front porch, and eventually ended up with some sweet mom and daughter images in Savannah’s baby room.

My heart is so big for this family, and Savannah is the absolute cutest.

P.S. If you want to have a giggle today, read about a fun mishap that happened on the day I took their photos. My husband and I were driving down to visit Deana and Bobby. This is about a 2 hour drive, and I was happy that my husband had the day off so that he could go with me and keep me company. Deana had sent me a message stating that there were two driveways, but if we missed the first one, there was a second. However, she mentioned that the second entrance had a ton of potholes. Well, what do you know, we missed the first one! So, we went down the second one…in my husbands Prius. Long story short, the car got stuck and we had to have Bobby tow us out. Hilarious! My husband just bought this car and was so happy to know that it made it through its first time in eastern, NC!
