My childhood BFF moved back to North Carolina with her family a couple years ago. She is the funnest, smartest, sweetest, most loyal friend. Even though hectic family and work schedules dictate our inability to see each other as much as we’d like, we always have a blast when we do get together. I met up with Sarah and her boys at the NCMA art park last spring for a quick session. I always love photographing their gorgeous smiles and big hearts.
This family? My favorite. I've known the Irvines for 15+ years, and I've always appreciated their company, their love and their sincerity throughout my life. Mr. & Mrs. I have always been so welcoming and gracious -- inviting me into their home time after time. I can't say enough good things about all three Irvine sisters -- I call them all good friends. Rachel, the oldest, is a talented designer/creative genius, who also happened to coordinate my wedding (no small feat) and re-brand my business. Mary, the next oldest, was the maid of honor at my wedding and she's like the sister I never had. She's selfless and giving, illustrating that through her work as an advocate for children's rights through the law and constantly fundraising for a worthy cause. Christine, the youngest, has just about every skill on the planet. Not only does she rock at photography (and other creative things!), she is also a certified yoga instructor and endlessly fights for climate change and equality for all.
Pretty incredible family, right? And their significant others are just as awesome. Irvines, you caught some good ones! : ) Enjoy my time with this sweet family.
Love Mary & Nick's pup, JOEY!
ADORE this one...
