Something that I always hold near and dear to my heart is the chance to donate to this awesome community we live in! It is so true when they say the more you give the more you will receive. I donated an ABP session to the UNC Lineberger Beach Ball Silent Auction and in the end I was the one who won. The Magnuson Family was kind enough to bid on a session with me and won! I not only got to photograph them and have an amazing session, but I made three and a half new friends that day too!
Meet the Magnuson Family!

“Every time you smile at someone, it is an action of love, a gift to that person, a beautiful thing.”
―Mother Teresa
My session with Ryan and his mom and dad reminded me of this quote. Ryan was one of my first sessions back after having Lila (yes I am finally trying to catch up with my blog and where do you start at the beginning of course!). His smile greeted me when I came into his nursery and it made me remember the joy and excitement of my work.
Meet my new friend Ryan.

March 4th was a big day for me. It was my first ABP session since my sweet Lila Byrd was born. I was excited, nervous (about leaving my little byrd), and honestly not sure how it would feel to be “back”. Well if you guys know me you know that I think God always knows exactly what he is doing and he planned for my first session back to be with my Arts in Action family. I realized I have been photographing this awesome non profit for four years now. (Thanks Lisa Kang and Lisa Van Deman!). This non profit brings happiness, dance, and the excitement of learning new things to our schools and our kids. As I said it was the perfect session back…
