Tiny Toes

Is it me, or isn't it just adorable how little babies around 6 months old love their little toes...they grab them, they nibble on them, and at this age their pudgy little feet are so cute! Little "K" is six months old and she loves her piggies. This Dad works with my husband at Legacy Golf Links in Aberdeen...if you ever visit or play there you can thank "S" for the condition of the course! Thanks "K" family for the opportunity to spend time with your lovely family. ~Cory

Sweet Baby "A"

I had the pleasure of photographing the tiny, sweet baby "A" this week. Her parents are so in love with her and grateful to have her home! I love going to people's homes to see them in their environment; I especially love photographs of the newest babies in mom & dad's arms, because in the years to come you cherish these precious memories of them so tiny in your arms! Time goes so fast and if your like me in only a few years time you will forget that your little baby could have ever been so small...so content in your arms. I so cherish the photographs I have with my own, especially now that my little girl is about to turn 3! Being with little "A" made me reflect on those early days of holding the tiniest little miracle. Thank you "J" family for letting me capture this special time for you! ~Cory

Headed Down Under

Hi everyone! Just wanted to let you know that my family and I will be heading to the other side of the world this week! How exciting is that? I have not traveled much and am SO looking forward to going to Australia with my hubby and kiddos to visit my in-laws. The hubby was born an Aussie and we are finally getting the chance to go visit! I will be returning to NC in about a month and will post some photos for you guys when I get back. Thanks so much for your love and support and keep checking the blog for Cory's awesome work. She will be taking care of the business entirely while I'm away, so give her some encouragement if you can! Can't wait to book some spring sessions when I return. Also, we have some amazing new products and events coming up...stay tuned for details! Until next time...God bless and G'Day Mates! :)

Little "G"




I had been waiting for the birth of Little "G" for weeks hoping that he would come before our vacation. I was so happy when I got to photograph him this week. He was so good and alert! Mommy and Daddy are so smitten with him, and who wouldn't be with that face and handsome tuft of hair? It was a joy to be there and to see this family grow from a loving couple to a complete family. They are just so cute together and I have been so blessed to get to know you all. As I work through the photos, these are just a few that caught my eye. ~Kristin

Maternity Shoot Adventure


So my recent maternity shoot was so much fun! My friend "R" and her sweet hubby "I" were game for anything when it came to their session! When I mentioned that I had had my eye on a burned down building with only it's chimney standing, they said "Sounds great!" I love clients who are willing to trust my vision and are game for anything. In this shot, they were standing on the porch, on top of some charred remains of a building and a little glass...but how cool is this! I love being an artist and "R" is an artist herself, so she truly appreciates my crazy visions. Remember...YOU ARE YOUR ART! More to come from this session. ~Kristin

All boys!

I actually got to these fast...it's so fun to get home, load the photos and see what I captured...so I worked on a few here of the "L" boys. You've heard Kristin and I say it before...the great part of our profession is the people we meet & the lasting relationship that we form. I've known both of these little guys since they were only days old, and now they are 2 years old and 6 months old. I've gotten to know the "L" family well & I often feel more like I'm hanging out with friends than with "clients". Big Brother "G" has always done so well for me, but today he had me running, on the ground, following him as he was on the go. He loves his little brother, but was too busy to sit for long with him...he had balls to throw, trains to see, and bubbles to catch. Little "F" as you can see was most happy with Mom...she didn't plan to be in any photographs, but it was so natural to capture her in a few...and they are some of my favorites...she is such a great mom and so beautiful too!
hope you enjoy your preview "L" family, I will have the rest for you soon. ~Cory









Little Miss "M"



I love Little Miss "M." Not only is her family dear to my heart, but I have been photographing her since she was a baby and look at her now! She is just gorgeous and full of life. She usually gives me a couple of minutes and then our shoot is done, but this time she obliged me by playing with me in her pretty new room. She even got to jump on the bed (as you can see) and dress up like Tinkerbell towards the end. Just a quick note...the amazing beds were antiques made more lovely by the talented painting skills of Mrs. Carolyn Derusseau...a local artist. She sometimes shows her work at Fourth Friday downtown. ~Kristin
