sandra and john had the sweetest little wedding in the beautiful greensboro arboretum. i love how they involved sandra’s two boys in the ceremony. it makes my heart happy to see such a happy new family!
tara is amazing! i met her a few years back when i photographed her beautiful wedding at the carolina inn in chapel hill. she is full of life and love and never slows down for a minute! tara does amazing work with the SPCA and rescue dogs of all kinds. she is a news anchor, but also has her own photography business that specializes in lifestyle pet photos, in between the blinks. i love sharing what i have learned over the past 9 years of running my own business and supporting up and coming photographers. tara and i spent the day being complete photo nerds and wrapped up our mentoring session with a fun photo shoot of her and her two favorite four legged friends, lily and baxter.
i love this kid and his adorable smile! it has been so fun getting to photograph this little ray of sunshine each year.
i was so excited to get out all of my camping props for this session. i have been wanting to do a stylized camping session for a while and emma, rachel and hannah were just the girls to make it all happen! they are three of my whitebox senior models for 2014. it was so much fun getting to know them!
clai + jimmy had a beautiful wedding at a historic church in the lovely downtown wilmington, nc area followed by a fun filled reception at the surf club in wrightsville beach. clai looked gorgeous and i loved the guy’s turquoise striped bowties. it was a wedding of southern charm meets nc nautical.
if zooey deschanel ever needs someone to play her as a child or to cast a kid to play her daughter they just need to call willow. how cute is this kid with her bright blue eyes and dark brown hair?
we finally firmed up all of our RV cross country travel plans today. i can’t believe that we will be RVing it for over a month this summer in bessie, our winnebago. my husband and my daughter are leaving this weekend for some father/daughter bonding as they make the first trek across the country together. ryder and i are meeting up with them in oregon for a month long RV adventure back to nc. i have a few spots open for portrait sessions along the way. if you live along my route and want to meet up for a shoot then please email me at sara@whiteboxphoto.com.
my other exciting news is that i am starting a travel blog to document our adventures! i hope to have it up and running next week sometime, so stay tuned for the whitebox roadshow travel blog info!
