Adorable 16 Month old “G”! | Hickory Boone Charlotte Children Photographer

babyg4Meet “G”!  He is soooo darn cute!  We photographed him last Fall and he was a cutie pie then but now oh  my goodness!!!  There is just something about little ones that brings such goodness no matter the situation.  I would say during every child session I shoot the kid/kids cry at least once but even those pictures are keepers!  Its all about capturing them at that age doing what they love and watching them explore life.  Much love to you Mom & Dad for allowing us to capture your little angel once again!babyg1

These two brothers are too cute.  We met at Mom’s Grandparents home or their Great Great Grandparents home place!  I love when even the location has so much meaning.  Boys will be boys to say the least with these two.  We ran in the grass, played around the barn, they climbed trees, pretended to be air planes, and tried to sneak up on bunnies!  Check out them out! 

LOVE THESE!

LOVE THESE!

Meet an adorable couple Stephen + Candi | May 23, 2010

candisteve5From the bridal session to the wedding we had an absolute blast with this couple!!!  Candi is so full of life, easy going, super sweet and just plain sweet.  Her bridal session was awesome evening.  We didn’t actually get to meet Stephen until the wedding day.  Most of my couples I’ve either shot their engagment session prior to the wedding or we have met at some point before the wedding.  This just helps with getting to know each other before the big day.  Even though Ryan and I hadn’t met Stephen before the morning of their wedding you would have never known it!  From the first hello we talking, taking pictures and having a good time.  This couple loves to have fun and be themselves!  Trust me you will see it in their post below.  The wedding was held at the bride’s Grandmother’s home in Patterson NC.  A beautiful Sunday morning with lots of sunshine!  The reception was held at the Hudson Uptown Building in Hudson NC.    Stephen & Candi swing dance together and it was such a treat to get to watch them let along take pictures of their fancy footwork!!  I love dancing and maybe one day I can talk Ryan into learning with me;).  To add to the fun a Balloon Artist and Face Painter were there to entertain the kiddos and adults.  We photographers LOVE this kind of stuff!  Check out a few pics from their day!  Congratulations to you both!!  Thank you for allowing us to be a part of your special special day! Much Love~

2 Year old “C” & Big Brother “C”

Just plain adorable!

Just plain adorable!

These two brothers are so darn adorable!  We did pics last year of these two and gracious have they grown.  This shoot was full of smiles, tears and lots of fun!  Its so funny how when you only have one toy no matter how special it may be they both will want it!  I brought along a wooden toy boat and it was a hit!  We began the shoot with pics of younger “C” alone.  He recently turned 2.   Big brother came towards the end to get some of them together!  It worked well.  You will enjoy this one I promise!!!  Just love it!

Ok here it goes... they were both wanting to play with the boat and when it came time to get it back they both went as hard as they possibly could.  As you can see leaving one pretty upset.  Brothers!

Absolutely Stunning….Candi | Hickory Charlotte Boone Wedding Photographer

candijbridals8

So we had a blast!  Candi is so super cute, fun, full of life, beautiful and awesome to work with…!  A huge thanks to Alan owner of Club Cola in Granite Falls for allowing us to use his beautiful facility and vending machine museum.  The location was perfect for 50′s style dress!!  If you are still looking for a venue for your wedding and/or reception you should definatley check out Club Cola.   Candi was married on Sunday May 23 so I’m so stoked to be able to post a few from our session.  Her personality shined throughout this entire shoot.  A few from her wedding will be up soon!  ENJOY!
