Charlotte, North Carolina Maternity Photographer | PUBLISHED! {THE POPPY CAT}

In just one week, I was published twice on the The PoppyCat blog – once again for Twins Week! This feature shows images from the gorgeous late Summer maternity session with Abby & Scott in Stamford and Old Greenwich, CT. And once again, special thanks to Pamela Harayda for assisting with this session. We had a phenomenal time with Abby & Scott, and as you can see from the photos – there was lots of laughter during the session.

Check out Twin Week – Day Six on The Poppy Cat here and please don’t forget to show them some love and comment on the post!!

Hmmm . . . Still Thinking About Holiday Gifts?

Hmmmm . . . . still trying to think about what to give to those amazing people in your life?

You know who they are – and you want to give them something they will remember forever and something that will make them smile almost everyday.

Well, there is still a couple of days left to purchase a gift certificate for a family portrait session for the 2013 calendar year.

You still have a chance to give them the opportunity to create timeless portraits and images of their family that they will treasure for years to come – images that will display on their walls and take them back in time to those amazing moments that occur every day. These images will capture the adorable smiles that have stolen their heart (and this probably includes your own).

Need another reason? If you purchase a gift certificate for the 2013 calendar year, I will include a $50 print credit towards their print order. And better yet, if you book and select a date for a family portrait session to occur before June 30, 2013, then I will include a $100 print credit towards your print order. This offer ends this Thursday, December 20th, so hurry and call to get a beautiful gift certificate that will bring a smile to their face this holiday season and for a long time to come.

To purchase a gift certificate or book your family session for 2013, please call me at 908-889-5416 or email carolyn@carolynannryan.com for more details.

Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays and wishing all of you a Happy New Year!!!

Waxhaw, North Carolina Family Photographer

Wow, it’s been over two months since I have had an opportunity to blog my family portrait sessions and I have a long list of sessions to add to the blog! It’s been a busy holiday season, and I’m so grateful for all of my wonderful and amazing clients!

So, now we are jumping all the way back to August to begin a marathon of family portrait session blog posts!

This sweet family requested a downtown session right in the beautiful town of Basking Ridge. I absolutely loved having an opportunity to just wander up and down the main street and find different backdrops and settings for creating family images. After walking up and down the main road, we ventured off to a side road and down to an open park area to complete the session. This sweet little girl loved being photographed and might just be a model someday! She has sweet eyes and a beautiful smile, and I just loved her dress, side-ponytail, and the beautiful blue ribbon with her curls. OK, so maybe I just loved everything about this session. And I hope do you as well.

This is the perfect way to kick-off the upcoming marathon of blogs and family photos! Enjoy!
