This past weekend I met with Donnell in NoDa.... One of my favorite areas of Charlotte. Donnell and I worked together at CBS Radio a fews years back. He wanted new pics for his portfolio. He mentioned during the shoot that he didn't like pictures of himself smiling, but I have to say that I respectfully disagree. Donnell has such a nice spirit and the smiling shots captured that! Enjoy...

There's nothing cuter than a little girl dressed up on Easter. Meet Hayden. She is a doll and a firecracker! She's also my adorable second cousin. Oh to have that energy again!

Hayden wanted to hold my camera.... I told her no but I'm sure this face has worked before ;)

She got over it!

This past weekend Lucy and I ventured to Daniel Stowe Botanical Garden. It's an awesome place to take your family on the weekend and right now they have a special exhibit that focuses on how the Southern garden has evolved over the years. All the flowers were in full bloom. Here are some of my favorites from the day!

This next shot is probably one of my favorites. I love how her hair blends in with the background.

I loved these columns.

While we were shooting this cat came up to visit. I loved it!
