Hi. I'm Sabrina
I like long walks on the beach... no, scratch that, I love walks in my neighborhood and lazy days at home. I'm a small town North Carolina woman who has learned to embrace the chaos of a messy house, loud children, and a shedding dog. My days are fueled by coffee and my nights are fueled by wine... not really, mostly whines, lots of kid whining {& laugher too} with some hard cider in a mason jar.
Home Sweet Home
I love being home {unless it is Disney World or Universal Studios, if that's the case, my bags are already packed}. The best part of my home is the people I share it with. That sounds corny, but it's true.
Don't get me wrong, my kiddos drive me bonkers, my husband could do with washing a couple of more dishes, and my old sweet dog wakes me up way too many times at night, BUT they are the BEST beings on this planet and I wouldn't change them a bit.... and I'm pretty sure I annoy them too.
My husband is the most supportive person I've ever had in my life, my oldest girl loves hugs more than Olaf {& hates to cooperate with traditional family portraits, even in the most magical place on earth}, my youngest girl is a tiny peanut with a big personality, and our dog is an oldie, but the BESTIE!

Me in a nutshell...
I say way too much when I'm nervous, I love all things Star Wars + Harry Potter, I'm an avid podcast listener, Universal and Disney World are my home away from home, yellow is my favorite color, but give me all the vivid & bright colors and I'm a happy girl. I've lived in the south for most of my life, but I don't have an accent and I really wish I did {"ya'll" just doesn't sound right when I say it}.
Most importantly, I'm a wife and mom who can be self conscious at times and I too understand the fear of being in front of the camera, but I honestly BELIEVE it is important! I love to capture the real, the everyday magic that is you and your family and I want to get to know you and capture those memories that are most meaningful.
"Let's Stay Home"
Taking awesome photos of your family is my job. I will go to a field and do portraits there too, but let's be honest, there is no place like home. Home is the one place you can be yourself and smile without any prompting {especially for those kiddos [and dads!!!] who aren't into having their photos taken}. It's also the easiest place to photograph your family pet too, and I'm all about the fur babies being included!
