I traveled from my home in Clemmons to meet Mariah, Reggie and their 10 week old baby boy, Ender at their home in Ardmore, Winston-Salem for their lifestyle newborn family photoshoot.
I was welcomed by an adorable baby boy with big blue eyes!
It was instantly clear that Reggie & Mariah love him to the moon and back.
As I got to know them, I heard they honey mooned where The Goonies was filmed in Astoria, Oregon!!! After we discovered our mutual love with The Goonies, we became immediate friends.
Their dogs joined in on the fun too!
They had their wedding photos taken during their honey moon (brilliant idea!). We subtly incorporated their framed wedding photo into the background of their first family photos.
We created a photo inspired by a framed wedding photo they had on their coffee table.
My heart just melts!!!
We walked across the street to their second plot of land. Since they love to read to Ender, we had a reading break on a picnic blanket.
There I found out that Ender makes some hilarious faces! So cute!!!
Since Reggie graduated from Wake Forest, the Wake gear came out at the end of the photoshoot. Go Deacons!
Congratulations to Mariah, Reggie, Ender and family! Thank you for inviting me into your home to capture this wonderful time in your family story. I'm glad Ender has two wonderful parents to show him how to Truffle Shuffle. Welcome to the world of long lost pirate ships, baby ruth bars, and Cyndi Lauper songs to accompany your thrilling life adventures!
Goonies Never Say Die,
Alisha
