The Whites

We met the quadruple A's (Amy, Adam, Addison, & Archer) out at Jordan Lake Farm this past weekend for some fun natural shots. One of our favorite locations, as we always get great shots. Helps that we have gorgeous clients, right? :)

My favorite pumpkin bread recipe


This post is specifically for my youngest sis, Gabrielle (aka Gabs, Gabaralicious, curly cutie, etc). She's quite the picky eater (sorry Gabs, you know it's true), so I'm surprised she's at all interested in something with pumpkin in the recipe. But whatd'ya know, she loves the stuff and has eaten it for years! :) Give it a whirl sis, I made some for us today. :)


Ingredients (preheat oven to 350˚):
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup cooking oil
  • 1 1/2 cups self-rising flour (if you don't have self-rising, just add 2 1/2 tsp baking powder & 3/4 tsp salt to the flour)
  • 1 1/2 tsp vanilla
  • 1 tsp cinnamon (I usually shake a bit extra in)
  • 1 cup pumpkin (I use Libby's canned pumpkin)
  • you can throw in 1/4 cup chopped nuts of your choice, but I usually skip 'em
Throw it all together:
  • mix eggs, sugar, and oil in one bowl
  • in another bowl, mix flour and cinnamon
  • alternate adding pumpkin and the sugar/egg/oil mix to the flour (add a bit of pumpkin, then a bit of the egg mix, back and forth til it's all mixed together)
  • add vanilla (and nuts if you wish)
  • pour into a large greased & floured (or sprayed with Pam) loaf pan
Bake for 45-60 mins, until fork inserted in center comes out clean

Also-it's perfect with a steaming mug of apple cider. :)

Williams Family

This adorable baby boy and his parents met us in Chapel Hill for photos this past weekend, and it was a perfectly gorgeous day for photos!  We got a few shots inside before heading to UNC's campus, and were happy to see leaves all around, on the trees and on the ground!  Ha, is it obvious that I work with kiddos? :)  Kristan & Mike, we love what we got, and can't wait to show you the rest!










Dave and His Guitar

We met up with David and his lovely lady Leslie (how's that for alliteration) in Durham this past Saturday morning.  He wants some photos to use for his new album, and we were happy to oblige!  It was chilly, but once we got moving we zoned in and I think we got some great shots!  And what could be better than following up a session with lunch at Mellow Mushroom?  Yummmm.

Looking Up

Another visit with Deuce yielded my new favorite photo of him. I love the slight haze effect, and this angle is always a winner for me. :)

Lee Family

Oh my, what a fun bunch! The first time we actually spent time in one section of downtown Wilmington, without too much traipsing about. It was a chilly morning, and the kiddos took a few minutes to warm up to the session and to us. By the end we were playing hide-and-seek, chasing each other, and climbing everywhere! We had a great time with Alex, Wells, and mom & dad. I'm thrilled with what we got, and can't wait to show you the full gallery!












Roche Family

A lovely afternoon downtown with the lovely Shelby & Parker and the 'rents. :) So cute, these two, and so much fun! Thanks for roaming the town with us!

Deuce!

We spent another weekend with Deuce and his lovely family. You all are so kind, thanks for having us over! Got a few more cute shots of Deuce now that he's feeling better. Though I still say those cuddly shots are cute! :)
