Photography’s youngest fan is born! On January 25th, 2011, the newest addition to our family, Paxton Kelley Pope arrived. After much anticipation and many months of waiting, we are so excited to welcome this 9 pound bouncing baby boy to our family. February is the month for celebrating love, and for the Pope’s that is certainly true.

There is no way for me to adequately express my thanks to all of you for the many gifts, well wishes and support that you have shown us over the last 8 weeks. Being placed on bed rest for 6 weeks was not easy, but it was so much easier knowing how much love and support we had. In the end it was certainly worth it as Paxton Kelley is here, safe and sound!

Pictures shot thru the week we were at the hospital long extended stay we had…:( Yet, Brandy helped me capture for the first couple days of his arrival and then the last couple of pics the day we were allowed to go home i shot…. the hospital shopping cart…”thought it was perfect for me” lol and his going home outift…. yet, the only person that knew what i had was my monogram lady…love you Kate….:) I cannot wait to show you his annoucement it fits perfect with him being called a premiee yet, weighing in at 9lbs and 1oz…. so stay tuned….:)

February will be a month for getting back in touch with all of my great clients that have been waiting on me. Hopefully I will be up and running, or at least walking, soon. I am anxious to reconnect with all of you. I am really looking forward to getting back in the swing of things, taking pictures and chasing around after all the little ones!
I also want to mention that my work will once again be featured in a Lake Norman magazine, called Blossom. On the cover again this time! It’s a great honor; you will definitely have to pick up a copy. I know i will have to pick up a lot for special reason…:)
You can’t talk about February without talking about love. This month is Valentine’s day, a day that has always been special to me, ever since I was a little girl. My parents always made sure to have a special something laid out for us the morning of hearts day. It might have been an outfit in red or pink, or a basket filled with our favorite candy. Whatever it was, it was always a special treat that had been handpicked just for us. I remember how loved those little tokens of affection made me feel, and I have kept up that tradition in my own family.
This year make sure you kiss your “Valentine” and tell them that you love them. A piece of chocolate or something in red or pink doesn’t hurt either! I will posting more highlights thru out this month so come back to take a peek…:)

So, I just have to show you my boys…..just adorable… this pics says it all! so, Blessed…:)
