Surprise Baby Announcement | Adventurous North Carolina Family Photographer

These two freaking beautiful people are due THIS month! It was fun having this secret with them earlier this year - I drove down to North Carolina where they live and then had to hold on to these for a couple weeks before it was time for them to announce! I don’t know how they held on to them and kept them secret, but they sure did and it was awesome. We had the most gorgeous golden light in these golden fields that just went perfectly with Kelsey’s hair and her yellow dress AND golden balloon! It was magical.

These past few years I’ve photographed a few families here and there, but as we go into 2020, I’m excited to be posting more of these family shoots that I’ve had because I want to photograph even more from here on out!

Whether it’s baby announcements, maternity sessions, little family adventure sessions, or big family reunions. I’m happy to help decide on locations, outfits to wear, and come up with fun things to do so that it’s an exciting, natural photo shoot rather than something stressful and stuffy.
