Home is Where the Heart Is

A beautiful portrait will be installed before Christmas morning of the teenage Jones children. The landscaped grounds around the property provided a wonderful setting for this camera study. Daisy, their trusted friend and pet was also included in the image to complete the chapter of this growing family. The natural light of this portrait provided sculpted light on Emily and Jack's features and also created a magical glow around Emily's flowing brown hair. This casually posed portrait will blend beautifully in the family living area and will also provide lasting memories for Christmas' to come.

"Fall" in Love

Image © Robert Harris Photography

As Cissy and Brian begin their life together, we joined them to celebrate their engagement and create a few meaningful images of this time in their relationship. We were greeted with a beautiful fall day with just enough chill in the air to allow the couple to really portray their warmth for each other. The setting along Fine Creek worked beautifully. Thank you to the Mill for granting us permission to use this beautiful setting.

We have photographed both Brian and Cissy on separate occasions before their relationship flourished. We photographed Brian's sister on her wedding day 11 years ago and Cissy was a bridesmaid of one of her close friends three years ago. Now its their turn as they plan their wedding on the Outer Banks next spring.

Congratulations Cissy and Brian, we look forward to photographing your wedding in the coming months. Next time with salt water of the Atlantic and sand between our toes!

Monster Mash 2010



Thanks to all the little goblins who stopped by to have their picture made Saturday evening during Monster Mash to benefit the South Hill Revitalization Committee. We had a record number of little spooks to warm up an otherwise chilly and breezy evening. Over $1,000.00 was raised to benefit the SHRC . This year marks a milestone of over $5,000.00 contributed from your Monster Mash photographs since the event started a few years ago. We were happy to volunteer our time and cover all of the expenses of printing your photographs. This allowed your entire donation to benefit the committee. Thanks to all of those who volunteered to make the evening a huge success. The event was held at the Market Square within sight of the newly renovated Colonial Theater (now referred to as the Colonial Center) A major event is already planned next year as the Colonial Center will host the Mrs. Virginia Pageant in the newly restored venue.

BTW, you may pick up your photographs at Memory Makers (219 E. Atlantic Street in South Hill next week. (November 8th)
