50th wedding anniversary photography | family portraits | outdoor family photos

Its encouraging to know that in a time where the statistics on marriages seems to be so negative, that there can be examples of how it really can work and be a life long journey. We were blessed this summer to not only capture one 50th wedding anniversary, but to be able to photograph two!

It has always been fun to see how much love a newlywed couple can have for each other on the day of the wedding, but when you get to see that same emotion 50 years later, it  touches your heart in a whole new way.

Brenda and Jerry Waddell were the first of our silver anniversary family portraits this summer in Wilkesboro, NC. As a gift to them their family organized and paid for family portraits. They not only wanted portraits with each other, but also took the opportunity to have outdoor family portraits with their children, grand-children, and the latest addition to the growing family, their great-grand daughter. It is simply amazing to see what hard work (because marriage takes lots of hard work), praying for each other and a great sense of love at all times will get you. This family has been such a blessing to us in more than one way and we are honored to be a part of their lives.

Our second anniversary outdoor family photos was for Wilhelmina and Harold Wood who celebrated 50 years of marriage in June. We were delighted to go to their historic farm house in the NC Mountains and spend time with them while they told stories of how they made their marriage work. The house made for a wonderful significant backdrop and provided the opportunity for them to relive fond memories with us of raising their daughters, working on the farm, and taking care of each other. Misty and the Wood’s youngest daughter Melinda were friends all through elementary and high school so this couple were especially precious.

The opportunity to celebrate marriage in all that we do certainly does not stop after the wedding day when the wedding photography is over. As photographers we love being a fixture in the lives of all of our clients and are truly honored when we can be the photographer that captures memories years after they say I do. We look forward to the day when we can photograph life’s moments both big and small for all of them, including celebrating momentous anniversaries.

Summer vacation is just about over and quickly coming to a close. Kids (and their parents) are looking forward to school. There is excitement in the air for a child returning to school, anticipating starting school, or moving up a grade. Some parents are having to come to grips with a child starting their first day at school whether it be Pre-K or Kindergarten, or an older child’s first day of their last year. It all goes so fast. We’re making capturing these moments easy and ridiculously cute! Pixels On Paper is offering Limited Edition First Day of School portrait sessions on July 26th and 27th in our Wilkesboro, NC portrait studio.

Even our pup Chelsea had to get in on the act. I’m not sure if she’s the teacher’s pet or the class clown?

kennedy’s 1 year pictures { pixels on paper } first birthday photographers

Turning one year old is such a milestone in a child and parent’s life. Its fun to capture child portraits especially during that one year mark. We encourage our clients to bring birthday cakes or birthday cupcakes into the Pixels On Paper portrait studio during this momentous occasion. We will photograph portraits that are traditional and classic and also portraits of them diving into their very first birthday cake all during the same photography session. The expressions we can capture during these moments are absolutely priceless! Just like these of little Kennedy during her First Year portrait session.

There aren’t many children at this age that aren’t happier without their clothing. Don’t most take them off anyway? You can tell by Kennedy’s smile that she definitely was.

the announcement of baby Huffman {maternity photography | nc mountain photographers}

It’s amazing to get to document through photos the important moments of so many people’s lives. Photographing the announcement of a baby is so very special, especially for a couple that like many others have had difficulty.  Since getting that first phone call from Nikki I knew this would be something special. Our pre portrait session consult was filled with hope, thankfulness of the blessing she has received and a few lumps in my throat as she explained her and her husband’s journey to have a child. Nikki and Chris fully realize and appreciate the importance of portraits to capture these moments that document the journey. She mentioned to me that because she doesn’t know when or if they will have another child she doesn’t want any regrets or missed opportunities.  She seriously even appreciates the experience of morning sickness!

Nikki is a beautiful mama.  I love her smile and her outlook on life. Her creativity and eagerness to spread the love combined with the tenderness and affection that Chris shows as he cares for her is going to make the next 9 months of photos an absolute thrill. Not to mention their adorable fur-baby Diamond, a precious English Bulldog who makes her Pixels portrait debut helping to announce baby Huffman. Because of our complete Baby Package, Pixels On Paper is going to be their photographer all along the way including baby announcement photos, maternity photography, newborn portraits, six months and first year portraits.

We’ve compiled photos from their Baby Is Coming photography session to create this short video. Hope you enjoy it!

Below are the precious 5×5 tri-fold custom baby announcements we designed and printed for Nikki and Chris to mail.

All of these photographs were captured at our portrait studio in the NC High Country in Wilkesboro, NC at 1198 Curtis Bridge Road.

pixels on paper’s amazing clients | 2012 review in photos

We are so very delayed in completing a blog post that recaps the photos of our client’s and friends from 2012. You can’t possibly understand how difficult it is to look back through every photo session from last year and pick favorites. It’s February but it’s also better late than never! We continue to feel incredibly blessed that so many each and every year trust us to photograph and capture the most important memories of their lives. We met some amazing people, felt like a part of so many of these people’s lives, and more often than not were right there along side of them having just as much fun. We gained numerous friendships last year. 2012 brought engagement pics, wedding pictures, senior portraits, family portraits, newborn photography, photos of children, pet pics, and commercial photography. We even added studio portraits for the first time in the history of Pixels On Paper! We are inpatient when it comes to figuring out what 2013 will bring and excited about the photographs we will capture.

The following are our personal favorite images from each of those we photographed in 2012. Enjoy the view!
