O CHRISTMAS TREE...FARM!

O Christmas Tree...O Christmas Tree....It's truly the most wonderful time of the year for most who carol over all things Christmas.  We were out and about on our date day frolicking around Lafayette Village after having lunch and stumbled across this storied Christmas tree farm, Parker's Big Meadow Mountain Christmas Trees.  We met with one of the owners of the family owned and operated business and shared our story with them.  After a brief conversation and complimentary exchanges, we were off and away through the trees, clicking and hiding...hiding and clicking.  If you are still in need of a beautiful Christmas tree, go visit one of their four locations.  Tell our new friends at Parker's that Khris and Carla of Timeless Photojournalism sent you :)

 

WALTER MAGAZINE | DECEMBER COVER + THE LITTLE HEN

Christmas has already begun for Timeless Photojournalism!  We have been blessed with being featured photographers for Walter Magazine for a few months, but this month's shoot is significantly special.  Our photograph was selected as the December-January cover and several of our images accompany the sweet and savory story about The Little Hen's creation of a charming gingerbread home. 

We graciously thank Jesma Reynolds with Walter Magazine for allowing us to showcase our talents and continually expand our creativiity via the lens.  Talk about one of the best, early Christmas gifts ever...

Below are the images from the Little Hen shoot in preparation for the 11th Annual Gingerbread Benefit being held at the Umstead Hotel and Spa.  We wish Pastry chef Sam Squiers and The Little Hen staff all the best during tonight's event!!

 

PUMPKINS AND HAY AND CORN, OH MY!

Every year, fall brings such warm memories of beautiful trees, colorful leaves, crisp weather, apple cider, sweet potato pies, fall festivals, hay rides and of course, pumpkins.  On a perfect fall afternoon, our family recently ventured out to Hill Ridge Farms to spend a day frolicking through the farm amongst other patrons and bees.  Tons of yellow jacks were also happy to be in attendance.  Nevertheless, the day could not have gone any better.  Here's just a snapshot of our little excursion...

THE FRENCH CONNECTION | HEATHER + PHILLIP

This couple finds their origin in the vineyards of France where Phillip studied winemaking in the region of Bordeaux while Heather, completed her Master's degree from NC State University and studied abroad in Provence, France.

Extremely photogenic with a powerful chemistry, this talented, young couple really exuded love and adoration in every sense of the words.  We even asked if this was their first time doing a photoshoot together, and they said “yes”.  Astounded by their response, we asked a couple more times throughout the session just to confirm that it was indeed their first time collectively posing before the lens.  The hardest challenge for us was culling through the images to select the best.  Well, as you can see below, every captured moment was just ridiculously beautiful….
