As a photographer, I always feel incredibly grateful to be able to capture priceless memories for families. When my longtime friend Jenny signed her family up for a session in downtown Tampa, FL, I was ecstatic. Jenny and her husband Evan arrived with their two adorable kids, Sophia and Lucas. The kids truly are best friends, which made capturing candid moments that much easier.

Now, as a family photographer in Charlotte, I have the privilege of helping families capture their own special moments. And let me tell you, it's not just about having pretty pictures to hang on your walls (although that is a great perk). There are so many reasons why investing in family photos is important, and I want to share a few of them with you.

Look at this precious little smile! I can’t wait to see the newest addition to the Hall Family! Congrats you guys :)

Four generations of love! What a fun family session we all had together. Seeing the adoration this big family has for these little ones brought such joy to this collection!

Capturing the Davis family as their Tampa, Florida Family Photo Shoot photographer was an absolute dream! What a happy little family :)

What a gorgeous family! I absolutely LOVE the Bonham family. Being their lifestyle photographer is such an honor!

What a couple of cuties are the Rodan family! I have had so much fun capturing the growth of this beautiful family over the years.

What a sweet family this is. I am thrilled to have had the opportunity to capture the beauty of this growing group of sweet souls!
