Morganton, NC Family Photography/Photographer/ Autumn Olive Photography/Morganton, NC. Covering Asheville and beyond.

I had the opportunity to photograph this family in Morganton at the Greenway!  What a beautiful family!  I really enjoyed getting to know you all and enjoy!

My camera loved her and I am pretty sure she loved the camera! So cute!!

Did I mention how much personality this 8 year old has!!

What a beautiful family..honestly, they could be on a magazine cover!

It looked like it was going to storm all evening, but we got the session in between showers! This sweet one just turned 1!!  How cute is she?

Wow has Kail grown!!  His grandmother met me at Lake of the Woods to do a session for Easter!  It was such a wet and chilly day, but the little guy hung in there!! Grandma even brought eggs that rattled so Kail would have more fun!!

Sweet Caroline is 6 weeks old and SUCH A GOOD BABY and I am sure she gets plenty of attention with having 3 older siblings!  Little Caroline was a great hat model as well. These adorable hats were provided by Nicci Lynn Handmades. Click here to find her sight on ETSY (just ask about the newborn hats). Nicci and I went to school together and she is the busy and amazingly creative mom of 4 little ones!

I love that little smile!

What a great family session at Biltmore Lake.  We walked around the path by the lake and found some beautiful backdrops!  This little girl is full of energy and was so much fun to capture! I love her many faces!  Enjoy!

Daddy’s girl?

And of course we had to do a silly picture!

I love it when families get together for a weekend, and what better spot than Lake James! This was such a fun and laid back family…I hope you all got some of your landscaping done over the weekend while the weather was nice! Here are some of my favorites from the session….

The cousins!

Brothers!

Over 50 years of marriage!

I must apologize for the lack of blogging in the last week or so. We are getting ready for a great fall season of weddings and family sessions here at Autumn Olive Photography! There is nothing better than capturing happy people with the fall colors painting the mountains.

One of the most common questions asked by many of our clients is, “What should we wear?”   So, here are the basics!

Wear what you feel comfortable in. That always makes the pictures more fun and natural. Keep kids happy. If they hate something, don’t make them wear it! Color adds an extra pop to your pictures! Families don’t have to match, just try to cordinate colors!  Pick three colors next to each other to add an extra “pop” to the images! Also, solids shirts are better than prints. Solids are classic. But, it is your session and your personality. Do what you feel is you and you cannot go wrong!!!  Happy Tuesday!

Photographing children is so great! Children hold nothing back and cannot help but me themselves. The world is so small in their eyes, and the only real responsibility they have is to play and be a kid!  These sisters were adorable and so much fun to be with! The weather was trying to play some tricks on us, and no lie, as soon as I got into my car, it started pouring rain!

This photo cracks me up soooo much!! She just couldn’t wait to make a funny face in front of the camera!
