Baby "B" Session/Children's Photography/Raleigh NC

So we don't get to photograph babies as often as we would like.  We stay busy with couples most of the time, so when we get the chance to see and touch a special little person, we get very excited!  Baby "B's" mommy is a friend of ours, and we are honored to capture this little man in his first weeks of life.  Here are a few of our favorites.

Amber - Christmas Glam Shoot

Couldn't wait to post this beauty from a recent Christmas Glam Shoot with MAKE me UP by Jana Eason.  Amber was a natural in front of the camera, and her photos blew us away! 

Megan & Brandon/Engagement Session/Yates Mill Pond

Yates Mill Pond was full of newly engaged couples the day Megan & Brandon had their engagement session!  The weather was gorgeous and the sun was so perfect, and it seemed to be shining just for us!  Here's a small peek at what we have so far!  We're excited for them to see everything!

Christine & Charles/Raleigh Wedding/1705 Prime

Charles & Christine were married in Raleigh at their beautiful church home, and then celebrated with family and friends at 1705 Prime.  The wedding decor was a nautical theme with special attention to all of the cruise destinations they have shared together.  We have enjoyed our journey with this special couple, and feel so blessed they chose Thornton Photography to capture their special day!  Congratulations Charles & Christine!

Shauna & Johnathan/Engagement Session/JC Raulston Arboretum/Downtown Raleigh

Here's a few of our favorite shots from a recent engagement session with Shauna & Johnathan!  We spent the afternoon at the JC Raulston Arboretum before heading to Downtown Raleigh.  Although we missed out on being blessed with a beautiful sunny day, we were able to capture the excitement of their engagement and get some awesome shots!  Congratulations to Shauna and Johnathan!

Jackie's Glam Session/MAKE me UP by Jana Eason

Here's another beautiful lady from Sharon's MAKE me UP by Jana Eason party.  Jackie had a good time in front of the camera, and she was a natural as you can tell. 

Lisa's Glam Session/MAKE me UP by Jana Eason

Here's a peek at Lisa from a recent MAKE me UP by Jana Eason party.  This day's party was bigger than usual with five ladies.  Needless to say, they were a blast and Thornton Photography had an awesome time.  Stay tuned for more peeks from this party hosted by Sharon!

Jessie & Reggie/Maternity Session/Garner, NC

We always love when we get the opportunity to photograph a mother-to-be! The mom is excited to show off her baby bump, and the dad is always beaming with pride. This cute couple is expecting their little man in about 8 weeks. Congratulations Jessie & Reggie and big sisters, Alana & Kendall!
