There’s just something so sweet and intimate about a mountain maternity session! Brianna and Michael’s maternity session, at Morse Park, was truly breathtaking! These two posed effortlessly in front of the camera and they should have been models! They will be welcoming a baby boy very soon and I can’t wait to see Brianna and […]

This maternity session, at the NC Arboretum, is extra special to me! I had the pleasure of photographing Giselle and Peter’s wedding a few years ago and they have become dear friends of mine!

When Ashley reached out to me about a maternity session at Looking Glass Falls, you know I couldn’t refuse! She and her husband came all the way from Georgia for this session and even brought along their sweet basset hounds! It was the most beautiful day and Ashley looked incredible in her green gown! After […]

Cheyenne’s maternity session was so beautiful and whimsical!  Her first maternity session with me was during freezing temperatures and high winds.  Her second may have still been windy, but at least it was warm! When she was pregnant with her first child, she told me that she wanted to do some river shots with her […]

I always get a little sad leaving wedding days, not knowing when I’ll get to work with my sweet couples again.  So, of course, when my couples reach out to me about capturing another milestone in their lives, I could jump for joy! I photographed Dixie and Chayce’s beautiful wedding four years ago and it […]

Almost three years ago, Sierra and Dakotah got married at Baker Buffalo Creek Vineyard.  They will be welcoming their first baby in October and I’m so excited to meet him!  When it came time for the maternity session, it was only fitting that we do it at the place where it all started!  I’ve gotten […]

How lucky am I to get to shoot at Baker Buffalo twice in a week?!  Mary and Matt have been with me from the start and it’s always such a joy to get them in front of my camera!  They have decided to let the gender be a surprise and we’re all dying to find […]

I'm a small-town, North Carolina, photographer and full-time spaghetti enthusiast!  If I'm not behind my camera or computer, you'll be able to find me at the barn with my horses or in the garden - I'm pretty sure that I'm a wannabe plant lady at heart!

The blog is here to not only showcase our recent work, but also to be a resource for clients and other photographers. You'll find session and photography tips, style guides, and so much more! If there's something specific you're interested in, shoot me a message - I'd love to hear all about it!

I'm Ashley
