I have had the pleasure of watching this little guy grow from a baby to this happy, active, joyful little man! I adore this family…they are some of my favorite people and what fun it was to play with little “JP” on a sunny day. I’ve included just a couple for now…but more to come very soon! Happy “Hump Day!”

I thought I would post a couple more of the little guy from the previous post. These are a bit different. Hope you enjoy the few of your sweet little man…the rest should be done SOON!

More Catching Up with a Sweet Baby Boy/ Fayetteville Photographer

So this perfect little miracle is another one of my clients that has been waiting after my horrible hard drive crash. I have some more that I really want to post later, but I thought I’d get a couple up for his patient parents. What a sweet, sleepy little guy he was! I was able to get some great shots and truly enjoyed the time I spent with his lovely mom, dad and grandma! He is a lucky guy to have such a great family. Dad just had to get the Redskins football in there…I just can’t let my hubby see this post…I would be banned from the house (just kidding). We are Broncos fans to the core! Hope you enjoy and THANK YOU AGAIN for your patience!

You know the saying “When it rains it pours?” Well that’s what it’s been like around the Railton household lately. As you see in my last post, I was out of town so I got behind and then right when I start to get back into the editing groove, my computer crashes! Totally fried! Along with that we had warranty problems, so it didn’t get fixed for over a week, my child got sick, my parents and friend have been in town for a week and are staying for another…etc etc. As you see, I am behind to say the least, but have the most wonderful clients. They are patient and understanding and a true gift from God! I have something very special for the clients who are waiting on their photos…to say a huge THANK YOU for your patience and support always!

The parents of this adorable little girl have been one of my waiting clients. I wanted to post a peek of her. Isn’t her spiky hair the cutest? And she was all smiles…a real joy! It seems she can’t be 3 months already! Can’t wait to show you the rest! ~Kristin

3 Month Old Supermodel/ Fayetteville Photographer

So I know I’ve been quiet on the blog lately and I apologize. Things have been hectic here at home and then my oldest friend was in need. I took off for a few days to visit with her and have fallen way behind. I believe that your family and the people closest to you are your treasures in life, so I did not hesitate to go. If you have been waiting for a blog post, I am truly sorry and am working my way through my files as quickly as I can. Thank you for being the best clients around and thanks so my AWESOME HUSBAND and kiddos who were happy to let me go when someone else was in need.

So moving forward…you may remember this gorgeous little one from her newborn shoot a few months ago and my has she grown! I have to say she has the BEST accessories ever!!! I could play with her forever! This shoot turned out beautiful, but not without a lot of work to get her asleep! We kept joking that she was a supermodel…wanting to have her way, being fussy and not cooperating. It was worth it! I can put up with this mini supermodel’s attitude any day (just kidding she is a sweetheart). Hope you enjoy your long awaited sneak peek…

The “S” family are dear dear friends of Kristin and I and our families. They are some of our best friends and like so many around here…the Army (well, and the Lord) has different plans for them…and they must move on and serve at other destinations. Thankfully “J”’s family lives in NC, so we still get to see them every year! Wow we have so many memories with them…it is great to reminisce with them and to also just pick up right where we left off. While they were here, of course we had to update their family pictures. “J” and “C” were some of Kristin’s first “models” and “C” has always been such an amazing supporter and encourager to Kristin and I launching our business. She came with us to our first photography workshop and we made it into our “girls trip” that year. This year…we’re determined…to make it to Charleston together. God has truly blessed us with a friendship that spans distance and time & will last eternally…miss you guys. ~love, Cory

Happy Birthday!

Happy Birthday to you…Happy 1st birthday to little “A”. The “T” family are some of my continuing clients with the sweetest little girl…she always smiles for me and wants me to hold her or play with her…I love it…and she made a total mess with her cake which was so fun and made for some terrific memories! I love capturing memories of the little ones in their crib or with their first cake…there are only a few of these moments in a child’s lifetime and such precious memories to have forever! ~Cory

I am so blessed to have such amazing clients and to have a business that has been successful for the past few years. God has truly taken care of Cory and I in our journey through this field. We have had some wonderful oppertunities and enjoyed many relationships with some of the most beautiful people around. That being said, one of my lovely clients and I were collaborated on this article in “Military Spouse Magazine.” The feature is about her business that is a great option for moms…especially military moms who often find themselves wanting to exercise, but without childcare because they are on their own. Rebecca has started her own franchise of Stroller Strides here in Fayetteville and I suggest you check it out! There is no better way to start off a new year than to take care of yourself and while you are at it, you will meet some pretty amazing women and form friendships. You can reach Rebecca at 800-675-2023.

And of course, I want to thank God for giving me the gift of being published in a magazine that is close to my heart. Being a military wife myself, any help and information for our community is always so worthwhile. I am honored and if you want to check out the magazine, you can find it at the PX. It is worth it. As we start a new year, we are looking forward to many great changes and the beauty that lies ahead, all thanks to God.

Sweet Baby “E” /Fayetteville Newborn Photographer

This sweet little one came into the world in time to celebrate the holidays with her family. She is a gorgeous little one, although she did not want to succumb to sleep while I was around! We really tried and got the few shots you see here of her sleeping in about a 5 minute period! Awake she was a bit unhappy too…think the poor little girl might have had gas? Anyway, I love this family…I photographed mom’s bridal portraits and now I have the joy of capturing their adorable family. Big sis “M” was a blast and of course I had to include some of her photos. Oh…be prepared…this is a LONG post! Love to you…more to come soon! ~Kristin

I couldn’t resist as I was finishing editing the photos from the last blog post to post this photo. I love it! Can’t decide which I like better, color or black and white. Happy Holidays! ~Kristin
