He didn't want to go home...

Ayden was having so much fun at his 2nd birthday session that he didn't want to leave! This little guy was was my first session in my studio here in Rock Hill when he was a little baby. I am normally amazed at how much kids grow between sessions since I don't get to see them all the time, but Ayden reminds me of how long the studio has been open everytime he comes in!

We did some fishing expedition shots which he absolutely loved. Even after we put the boat away he was still asking about where it was. He loved playing in it! You can tell from the pictures that he had a great time...they turned out wonderful!

Check out these baby blues!

I just can't get over how big Haley has gotten since the last time I saw her! She has grown so much. Jennifer, I think you will be shocked at how many adorable images there are from her session! To give you a sneak peak...here are a few...

I just had to use Layton's Sitting Session as the new featured session. There were so many adorable shots in her session! So, it is now up on the website!

As always, we try to keep the site current with fresh, new images. So, check back frequently!

She made my job IMPOSSIBLE!

She took so many adorable images that I debated over and over again on which ones to keep! I don't think she could take a bad picture. She was belly laughing during the session which was so much fun for us! I can't even imaging how hard selecting images is going to be for her Mom & Dad!

Rojas Family - 50th Anniversary Portraits!

The Rojas family was in last week for portraits. They were celebrating Grandma & Grandpa's 50th Wedding Anniversary and had a big event planned following the portrait session. This was a record for the number of people that I have had in my studio at one time because there were the 19 being photographed, my assistant and myself, and 4 additional people that were with them. We also did some individual families and pictures of the grandparents with all the grandkids. I know that they will treasure them. Here are a few:

Happy New Year!!
