Beech Mountain Portrait Session {Charlotte Photographer}

My beautiful sister-in-law invited me to come with her on a mountain trip. We had been planning for a few months doing a portrait session for her because she had never had professional portraits taken before of just herself. So this was the perfect opportunity for a change of scenery – personally and professionally. The weekend was just what I needed!

I’ll get more into the details of our adventures when I post travel photos from our trip.

Saturday night when we returned to our place, Kim got ready and we ventured out to the top of Beech Mountain where we got some great shots. I’ve only ever seen this scenery on my snowboard when the ground was completely white. Seeing it in this light was beautiful.

If you have never met Kim, you’re missing out. She has a quick wit that cracks  me up, the hardest punch for a girl I’ve ever seen, but she’s also warm, intelligent, beautiful, unique, and compassionate. If anyone was every ‘born to be a mother’ it’s Kim. The way she has raised my nieces to be independent and kind, goofy but grounded, and generally just full of love, astonishes me. I always joke that if I ever have children, I want to send them to their house for my brother and Kim to raise them. I was so happy to capture these images of her. I had a blast and I hope the beautiful wonderful Kim I know shows through in these photos.

Family Matters

It’s finally here – the beginning of my life as pixels. I have had an obsession with taking photographs (ask anyone I know) for years and years. Point and shoot cameras have always managed to keep me occupied, however, I knew it would not hold me over forever. So I broke down and purchased my first “real” camera. It just so happened to be the day of my father’s birthday, so I spent the afternoon getting shots of my family relaxing and enjoying each other’s company. So here they are: the first images shot with my new camera. There is very little retouching, but I hope to experiment more in the future.
