Getting Ready for Beach Portraits


This coming week, we will be at the beach for our first photographic session of the season.  The sunset on a Spring evening is so beautiful.  The weather is comfortable.  It's just a great time to do a beach portrait.

By the way, we offer a complimentary beach session for high school seniors in addition to the session we do at our studio.  So, a high school senior can have a studio session, a session in our backyard studio gardens, and a session at the beach.  We have so much fun with our Seniors. They're excited about their upcoming senior year and it really shows in their portraits.

I think this weekend will be a great beach weekend for everyone.  The weather is supposed to be very nice.

Cold Again

This beautiful Spring weather, along with all the flowers blooming and trees turning green, is short-lived according to the latest forecast.  We are re-arranging some of our outdoor portraits this week because of the forecast.  

One little guy, in particular, will be rescheduled.  He will be wearing denim overalls with no shirt.  Since he will be in the backyard garden with his little trractor, we need a little bit warmer weather for that portrait.

The flowers at the studio are blooming and the leaves are filling in nicely in the backyard gardens.  Appointments are already filling up for Spring.  Give us a call to schedule your outdoor portrait.  We'd love to photograph your child(ren) and/or family.  Bring your pet too.  They are part of the family.

Azalea Festival

This weekend marks a big event for Wilmington, NC.  It's the Azalea Festival.  People come from all over the state, and probably the US, for a weekend of concerts, garden parties and tours, a parade, a street fair, and much more.  

One of the traditions of this festival is that young ladies are chosen to be Azalea Belles.  They appear at various events throughout the weekend.  We got a little preview of the festival this year because some of the Azalea Belles came in to have their portraits done in their beautiful dresses.  We were able to photograph them in our studio gardens.

I also had the proud honor of photographing the Azalea Princess, Zelle Brown.  She is such a nice young lady and will represent our city well.  

Enjoy the weekend.  If you are in Wilmington, we're praying for beautiful weather for all the Azalea Festival events.
