2018Connie booked a studio family session for Christmas cards and asked of with could also do Traditional Korean Hanbok portraits in Greenville SC. I said yes!
I love this repeat client so much. My first time photographing her was during the birth of Allie, then we did newborn photos for Allie, and one year photos for Allie. There’s something about being present in your birth room that makes you an instant friend with your photographer. It helps that I gave Connie head rubs and held her basin when she got sick 🙂 I adored serving her in that way and love that she treasured the support.
Big sister Abbie has always adored me, but sweet Allie has always been a little unsure of my camera. This time was no different, so I bribed her with our foster kitten.
Mission smile was successful 🙂 There’s nothing a foster kitten can’t fix with a two year old! Typically our cats or fosters are never in the studio, but with mom’s permission I’ll do anything to make a two year old happy!
Meanwhile, Abbie was hamming it up for me all the time.
Her favorite part of this visit to Greenville (these little loves have moved to Nashville) was playing in my studio. Abbie tells me stories and gets me to tickle her. She also gives the best hugs!!! I just adore her!
After we took Christmas photos we prepared for our traditional Korean Hanbok portraits. We had to do a lot of convincing to keep Allie in the jacket portion of the outfit. But even so, we managed to capture these three beautiful women in the beauty of their heritage and culture.
Interested in showcasing your family and your culture? I’d be honored to have you in the studio to tell your unique story. Please contact me here. I’d be honored to serve you.

2018Meet Noel Juhl who came for some Christmas Themed Newborn Photos Greenville SC. Mama Jessica requested a fun Christmas twist based on her name and I was happy to oblige.
We used some Christmas plaid, a few cookies, and some Noel signs from Hobby Lobby to create a little set. I pulled out a mini Christmas tree too. I love how it turned out! Subtle and playful.
But most of our session focused on the timeless and organic style that I’m known for. Sweet babies, posed simply with simple adornment.
Noel was an extremely curious little girl. She wanted to watch what I was doing.
This was amazing for so many open eye shots with great eye contact which is super rare in newborn photography.
I loved these images with mommy as Noel drifted off into a light sleep.
I spent some super sweet time soothing and rocking this angel. And a lot of time giggling when she popped her eyes back open right after I took a shot to make sure I wasn’t doing anything new.
This yawn was during that time as well as this sweet smile.
And this nest shot was a blink.
After about half an hour of this peek-a-boo game, Noel finally drifted off into complete sleep. I worked fast so we’d have a good bit of posing variety in case Noel got curious again.
I love Noel’s back wrinkles. And her little ankles stacked so daintily.
Jessica requested this pose and it’s one of my most requested. I call it back wrinkles.
This smile made all of that work totally worth it!
We finished the session with a quick nursing and a backdrop change for this last shot.
And I got close for these sweet detail of Noel’s healing belly button because Jessica told me that she loved how it looked like a cinnamon roll.
I love capturing special details like this. What details would you want captured of your sweet little one? Contact me today and let me know what you never want to forget.
