On Location: Umstead Park

I love Umstead Park- absolutely love it.  I love it from a photo standpoint and I love it from a weekend activity with the family.  Umstead helps provide multiple scenes for your session.  You have trees galore, beautiful trails, gorgeous lake, and a couple bridges.  It truly has a lot of options!

On a personal note, the kids just love this place as they can run around the trails with us.  They love trying to find the birds and walking by the lake.  It is so refreshing!

To help you get an idea of what they have to offer, here are some pictures from Umstead- so many possibilities :-)

On Location: Fletcher Park

Fletcher Park is another great place for photos with a wide range of options for all types of pictures.  Like North Cary Park, Fletcher does have a playground on its premise, though it is not one of the better playgrounds considering other parks in this area.  I did learn that the swings make for some great shots for those of all ages :)  The park also offers a lot of places with beautiful backgrounds and scenery.  Spring and summer sessions here definitely benefit with the flowers on the grounds.  I haven't been in the area long enough to scope this area out in the fall, but definitely am planning on going there sometime this fall to check it out :)

To view a couple past sessions at Fletcher, please check back to these blog postings:

This park has a lot to offer and I definitely look forward to doing more here.

Enjoy!

Also offering Back to School Mini Sessions!

I just can't help it!!   With kids in our area getting ready for school and announcing the fall mini-sessions yesterday, it just seemed like a natural fit.  The packages that I am offering for the Back to School Minis will be the same (listed below) as those scheduled for October.  The Back To School Minis will run for the whole month of September, so if interested please make sure you book ASAP before September is full!

Please contact with any questions or to book your session(s)!
