As we await 2021, we’re still relishing the time we were able to create Christmas portraits with our holiday loving clients! We built an outdoor set up with Christmas decorations this year. They came, they smiled and we photographed it. Below are some favorite photos.
We love family portraits whether they are set in the studio, the great outdoors, a specific location like the mountains or high country, or on our property in our outdoor portrait garden. Pixels on Paper photographs, engagements and weddings, brides, and special events and portraits of all kinds in our Wilkesboro, NC studio. We would be honored to meet with you, learn about you and your family and be a part of taking special portraits that will become, we hope, family heirlooms.

I’ll just be still a minute and let you take in the cuteness of this little munchkin. She is proof of Santa and of God. Taraji might possibly be the cutest baby I think we’ve ever photographed and I’ve photographed some real dolls in the last couple of decades.
She and her mom found us through a Google search, but I would be denying my faith if I thought there weren’t other sources in the mix. Theirs is a deeply beautiful story that begins with her birth and rescue. At 5 months, she was calm, cuddly and sweet and Ryan and I agreed that she has a very old soul.
While they were in our studio, we bonded and so loved having them with us. My wish for the year ahead and for years to come is that we can see more of this beautiful girl and watch where the Lord takes her. She is a Christmas blessing.

This is not a first and it certainly isn’t a first with this gorgeous family. In 2016, we visited the Holland family at their home to shoot Christmas holiday portraits and we were delighted to return this year to repeat the fun.
It was wonderful to see parents Kevin and Tram and their three children, Colton, Ava and Sophia. Relaxing and decorating the tree were an easy part of the day. Their home is lovely and we always enjoy this slice of life, documentary style of photo session.
Not only are the kids continuing to grow before our very eyes, the family has added a new puppy to the mix. Seriously? The only thing that can improve upon the beautiful setting, the season and the family is the addition of a little snuggle-bun in the form of a Jack Russell.
Merry Christmas to EVERYONE out there! Ryan and I wish you nothing but joy, health and peace this season.

It is beyond rewarding to decorate your studio, tell everyone you’re ready and have the phone start ringing. And it kept ringing. Every time we opened our doors, there were faces we love grinning back at us.
Here is a selection from two families we snapped recently: the Bynums and the Bells! We love you all!
Two words for the faces below: teeny elves.
Here’s two more: stinking cute.
The Bells are the sweetest couple and we love that they want to have portraits taken as a young duo. [Heads up, people out there who would love holiday portraits: if you want images taken with your pets, best friends, favorite next door neighbors, college roommates, nutty cousins or coworkers – we do not require that you show DNA matches. We don’t care AT ALL! Just show up and we’ll create a Christmas memory for you.]
I look at the images from both shoots and see perfect Christmas cards, frameable images and great gifts. All these folks did was pick out a festive outfit and show up. The rest was a cool holiday breeze.

I’m not going to lie; the temptation to hit rewind and dig up images of the this couple before they were married, before the delicious “chirrin” showed up is just about to break this photographer. These people are family.
BUT I’M NOT GONNA DO IT.
We love the Minicks so much and couldn’t wait to get them into our portrait studio for photographs for this holiday season. Two became three with the birth of their daughter and now, they are four.
Amelia…… you sweet girl! Feel free to put the breaks on with the whole growth thing. Our hearts can’t take it.
Any time we’re around this family, we feel happier, lighter and connected to our roots. And they look festive in our studio this year and every year.
