2011-03-02T10:37:00.000-08:00

This little girl is a miracle! Her parents tried for several years to have her. She was born in December, and is truly a joy to be around. I am so glad I met this family, they are truly a blessing! :)

The Rhyne Family

2010-12-01T16:22:00.000-08:00

Well here we are again! The beautiful Mrs. Rhyne, this time with the two most important people in her life. Little K is one of the most beautiful boys I have ever seen. I really should say, "Handsome", but I am sorry, with those eyelashes, he is just beautiful with a capital "B"! This was a very quick shoot since it was FREEZING outside.

When I relocated to the Fort Mill area about a year ago, I never dreamed I would have so many wonderful friends. This one here is a gem. More beautiful than the rings or any jewelry her daddy makes! ;) She is a true friend through and through. Thank you for all you have shared with me over this past year. Looking forward to the next year even more, with little S's arrival coming soon!

You guys are truly a blessing. Thank you, I cherish each and everyone of you!

Love,

Beth

Little Ry

2010-12-01T11:02:00.001-08:00

This little man stole my heart from the moment I met him. He is so brilliant, and is a great friend to my son. He has the most beautiful eyes and the most gentle smile. RP I adore you.. I adore your entire family. Thank you for being so well behaved on this day. I know it wasnt a great day for you in the beginning, but we made the best of this shoot. I know your mommy will be happy!

Mommy of Little Ry, I am so grateful you came into my life. I have shared so many laughs with you even when I didn't feel like laughing. THank you for being a great friend!

Love you,

Beth

I still can't believe Mrs. D is expecting her first "Bambino"! She is one radiant expecting momma! I loved being out with her and her family on the Farm. What a beautiful setting and back ground. We had fun chasing the cows away so they wouldn't be in the photos. One even liked my van so much he was licking it!

Little mommy D will be expecting her little one right around Super Bowl time, and has decided to wait to find out the gender! I was so pleased to hear she was doing this.. it's the last surprise from Heaven you can get as an adult! :)

I can't wait to meet Baby B. He/or she will be absolutely perfect.

I love you guys!

Love,

Beth

Burchfield Family

2010-12-01T07:29:00.000-08:00

So I have know this little lady my entire life. Jamie Lynn is my cousin and my bestest friend in the whole wide world. She and her family had never had their family photos taken, which I am embarrassed to say,especially when I am a photographer who has let this happen.

Miss B. has a sassy little personality of her own. She makes me smile every time she speaks. She has the most unique southern accent, just like her little personality. She is one of a kind~ She loves Barbies, and even more than that she loves to change clothes! :)

Daddy Doug has been in mine and Jamie's lives for a long time now. I consider him my brother and love him for everything he has done to be a great father and husband to some of my most cherished loved ones!

Jamie, I love you with all my heart.. lets not let another 5 years go by without photographing your beautiful family. I love you all.

37th Annual Balloon Festival Statesville NC

2010-10-26T08:34:00.001-07:00

I had so much fun with my family this weekend at the 37th Annual Balloon Festival in Statesville, NC. I was lucky enough to catch my first ever balloon ride experience compliments of Ray Smith of Tega Cay. It was a peaceful ride believe it or not. Its so quiet up there~

I was overwhelmed with the beauty and perspective from being up in a balloon. It truly was an amazing experience and I recommend anyone who has never flown in one, do so.

Braeden was really worried as I began ascending off the ground. He looked at "Dad" and said, "WHERE IS MOMMY GOING"???

I am so glad I was able to go and captured some very interesting perspectives!

I met this wonderful Mother at "For Every Season Consignment Sale" Her enthusiasm was so geniune, I almost teared up. People like her really help me remember why I love what I do! Thank You for coming out to my home/studio and letting me photograph your babies! You are so sweet and I am truly glad we met. I sure am looking forward to the next session with you and your new addition!

Little Man "M"

2009-12-09T19:10:00.000-08:00

Well from the moment I stepped out of my car, I wasn't ready for this little guy! He was so busy! The first 10 or so shots were just trying to catch up to him! He ran and ran, chasing a soccer ball, and well after I started to catch up, and sing to him, he would give me a look every now and then. His little smile would light up any room. Thank you H for bringing him out in the "cool" weather. I had so much fun and look forward to the next session! Little M is absolutely a beautiful child inside and out ( just like his mother). I hope you all have a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

Love,

Beth

Well this adorable family wanted some indoor and outdoor photos! These little girls were so shy in the beginning, but after warming up to me, we all had a great time! Thank you Delcourt Family for allowing me to take these photos! I really enjoyed myself and these girls make me smile everytime I look at them in the photographs! Hope you have a great Holiday Season!

Thank you,

The Barnhart's

I have known D most of my life, well since Elementary School. We go way back literally! :) She asked me if I could do their family portraits and of course I said yes! Although I never thought I would be yelling "Squirrel, and then DO YOU WANT A TREAT?" to get my subjects to look at me! :) I truly had so much fun though! I felt sorry for D and C because they had their hands full but had a workout walking those girls! I really loved getting the shots of everyone looking and even getting the dogs to smile in the photographs too! The pups loved being outside. D and C thank you guys so much for being game to bring the girls out for a photo session! I truly think they make the photographs so special! I love all of you and hope you enjoy them!

Love,

Bether

Little Baby Girl MT

2009-11-11T18:46:00.000-08:00

Baby Girl M. T.

I met this little delicate flower and immediately teared up. I don't know what it is about little babies that does this to me. Maybe its because I understand they are true miracles, so fresh, so new and so innocent! Little M didn't want to wake up but that was fine with me! She was so good during this shoot. She let me move her around and never hardly made a peep. Well maybe a little grunt or two! Thank you J and N for letting me have this time with your baby girl. She truly is gorgeous and I wish nothing but the best for your little family!

Love,
Beth

Baby Boy Maddox

2009-10-27T14:19:00.000-07:00

Baby Boy Maddox

Baby boy Maddox was 3 weeks old and boy did he like to see what was going on! He stayed awake for almost the entire session! He was so alert. It has been so long since I have had one of my own that small, I had quickly forgot how much they can do in just 3 weeks! He was so precious. I just couldn't stop holding him! He would look at me and smile, and I was done!

Thank you Baby Maddox, and mom and dad for coming to my studio and letting me photograph this little cutie pie! He is so special!

The Flowers Family

This little famiy means a lot to me. They waited a long time to find a little sweety like miss "K" :) This little girl is all smiles. We had this shoot scheduled for months and no amount of rain was going to keep us from accomplishing great photos. When life gives you rain, the Flowers come out and love it! :) I know, Cheezy, but I couldn't resist, we had so much fun on this cold wet day! I really loved how these turned out. Thank you Flower family for making it out and having a great attitude with the bad weather!

Much Love,
Beth

Pastor Mike Brown and wife Debbie of Cross Roads Assembly asked that I take photographs for their website. I really enjoyed getting to know these two as well as the rest of their staff. If I lived in Asheville, I would visit this church regularly. What a wonderful group of people who really love the Lord.

A Little Miracle~

This little angel belongs to my youngest brother who wasn't supposed to be able to have children, but this little one shows that God is still in the Miracle Business!

2009-09-02T15:46:00.000-07:00

The Cow Jumped Over the Moon Consignment Sale was a hit! I had such a blast and met a lot of new people! I enjoyed meeting all the moms and their kids! With this being my first Vending event, I learned a lot. I loved the location (Tega Cay Golf Club) and the Owner Catherine is my hero! Thank you for having me Cathy, It was a huge success for me and I hope it was for you as well!

I will also be a vendor at For Every Season( http://www.foreveryseason.net/ as well! It will be a week long so if you need items for your children or yourself come check it out and get some great deals! :) I love consignment sales.. I enjoy shopping and volunteering!

From this event I met a wonderful person named Christine, she is the owner of Fort Mill Prep Preschool http://www.fortmillprep.com/. I will update some photos from there as well! She asked me to do her website photos, so be sure to go back and check her website for my work!:)

Thank you Christine for having me! I really enjoyed meeting you and your staff. They are excellent with children! :)

Little Jencynn turns me to mush! This little blue eyed angel was such a joy to photograph! She turned one a few weeks ago and is as sweet as she is cute! Her little personality shines threw her eyes and her smile! I fell in love with this entire family!

First official Grand opening!

2009-08-27T18:39:00.000-07:00

I decided to consign in a children's consignment sale so I could sale all the baby clothes I had been holding on to . I saw there was an opportunity to make my business go public! This forced me to take the plunge and invest in my biz by getting my logo, cards, and website! Wow, its happening all so fast! I still can't believe it. I really love what I do, and I feel so blessed that I finally found my true passion in life. No matter how tired or upset I can be, I can grab my camera and I feel like I don't have a care in the world! :) It's awesome! I have searched and searched my entire life to find what I was meant to do and it plopped into my lap when I least expected it! (Just like my husband) :) Things really do finally happen when you let go and believe it will all work out in the end... and that is my two cents for the day!

Logo has arrived!
