Maddie’s Outdoor Fall Senior Portrait Photography
This wraps up the 3rd senior in the family of three kids – er young adults. We previously photographed Paiton and Quinton. Mom Timberli wanted photos every couple of years to capture the growth and changes in her three kids and you guys. Like her siblings, Paiton and Quinton, Maddie has transformed into a stunning young lady and amazing person.
Below: Maddie 2010, 2013 and 2017. See what I’m talking about? One minute she’s a barefooted girl, cute as the day is long, and now she’s elegance and grace. 
We’ve been planning these sessions all year with Timberli who wanted each of her seniors to be photographed during different seasons. Paiton was Spring, Quinton was Summer and now Maddie in Fall. The Roberts’ family home now showcases a collection of 24″x 36″ canvases of each senior.
Here they are … and parents everywhere sigh at how fast it all goes by. Now we’re hoping to convince parents Chris and Timberli they should do a Winter session to complete the seasons. We love this family and can’t wait to see all the other milestones they have ahead of them and that we hope to photograph.
We love family portraits whether they are set in the studio, the great outdoors, a specific location like the mountains or high country, or on our property in our outdoor portrait garden. Pixels on Paper photographs, engagements and weddings, brides, and special events and portraits of all kinds in our Wilkesboro, NC studio. We would be honored to meet with you, learn about you and your family and be a part of taking special portraits that will become, we hope, family heirlooms.

outdoor mountain family portraits
The Polands have 4 kids, fourteen grandkids, 2 dogs, a donkey and 2 horses. LARGE. They are spread out all over the country so capturing these photos was a one day thing and everyone in the family, pets and all, were there.We met James and Judy one night while dining outside at The New Public House in Blowing Rock and liked them immediately. We spent hours on the porch that evening sharing stories, drinking wine and enjoying each other’s company. They told us about their large family made up of their kids and grandkids and their farm just outside of Boone. The various members of the clan rarely see each other. One son is in the military and often deployed. Another son lives in Florida. The family is made up of several blended families and the only time in years that they would all be together in the same place and at the same time was a single day in between the holidays. Judy really wanted a family portrait. Who could blame her? One woman, her husband and in a mere few decades…… a cast of thousands!
In only a couple of weeks, Judy called us and gave us the ONE DAY and we were off. We love this shot of Judy and James surrounded by their fourteen grand “babies.” We found a perfect spot on their farm and all of the colorful clothes the kids wore made it work. 9 girls and 5 boys…… LORDY!! And they were so cute and funny with loads of energy.

Newborn Photography {FAQs} | Pixels On Paper Wikesboro NC Family Portrait Photographer
Having a professional portrait studio space to photograph newborns has given us the ability to create a safe, warm, inviting and relaxed environment for both parents and babies. Sanitation, preparation and efficiency during a newborn portrait session are top priorities for us. We want to take this opportunity to answer some of the most frequently asked questions.
When should I contact you to book my newborn session?
We HIGHLY recommend you contact us during your pregnancy to start the booking process. We want to add you to our schedule as soon as possible and keep tabs on you throughout your maternity. Although we make every effort to fit in last-minute newborn session requests, our schedule fills up quickly and it may not be possible to do so. Once you are on our calendar, you are given priority after your baby arrives and we will be sure to schedule your session within 10 days after you leave the hospital.
Why does my baby need to be so young for a newborn session?
The ideal time for a newborn session is generally when a baby is between 5-10 days old. They are still very sleepy and are still comfortable being curled up similar to how they were positioned in the womb so their legs tuck up underneath them very comfortably. We can pose them in all those sweet poses quicker and more easily while they sleep. Every passing day after birth brings more awake time and less tolerance to the posing.
Where will the session take place?
All newborn sessions take place in the Pixels On Paper portrait photography studio located at 1198 Johnson Lane, Wilkesboro NC. In studio means we can devote more time to the session because we don’t have to pack up all of our equipment, props, lighting and supplies each time we have a session. We can guarantee our light and environment is perfect and exactly what you have come to expect in our photos rather than trying to search for the right location and light in your home.
How long will the session take?
The session can last anywhere from 2 – 4 hours depending on how often your baby needs to be fed and how well your baby sleeps through the posing and accessory changes; every baby is different and some babies may need more soothing and slower transitions than others. Taking our time and perfecting every shot is more important than rushing a session.
We offer full year baby photography packages and maternity photography. Learn more about us at www.pixelsonpaper.net and contact us for booking information.
megan & luke | maternity photography | wilkesboro nc family photographers | pixels on paper specializing in creative newborn, baby, maternity and family photography
Megan and Luke are one of the sweetest most down-to-earth, hardest working couples that you’ll ever meet. You can’t help but laugh and enjoy spending time with them. They’ve been married for four years and are now expecting their first child, a little boy, in early October. Why do I mention the hard working part you might wonder? Because they’re farmers. Not just gardening small time type of farmers, but real, true, salt-of-the-earth, 16 hour days, year around, acre upon acre, generation after generation, full-time farmers. And the family farm, well it’s mind-blowing gorgeous. If you’ve ever seen mid-west US farms, imagine one of those surrounded by beautiful mountains in the heart of the NC Yadkin Valley. Their baby boy is going to grow up in the most beautiful of surroundings with a lifestyle that can’t be beat. We’re already taking bets on how young he will be when he learns to drive a tractor or combine.
Not only was the farm the perfect setting for their maternity portrait photography, but we’re already visualizing future family portrait photography in our heads. We’re hoping to recreate some of these photos with the addition of a little one as their family grows. These moments and memories are priceless. We are blessed beyond measure to be able to photograph them. Thank you Luke & Megan!
We hope our readers and fans will enjoy this little glimpse into their world as much as we did.

angela and andrew’s engagement photos | blowing rock | pixels on paper wedding photographers
Angela loves photos and takes advantage of having every moment captured in a snapshot. Andrew, like most guys would prefer to not be in front of the camera but understands how important these engagement memories are as they draw closer to their wedding day and would do anything for Angela. Spending time with these two before we photograph their September wedding was precious time together. The natural location with the NC Blue Ridge Mountains as the backdrop seemed perfectly appropriate at putting Andrew, a professional landscaper, at ease. And of course we couldn’t pass up the opportunity during the engagement session to include their fur babies, Mia and Duke, who are also going to have roles in the wedding ceremony.
We are so thankful for the opportunity to capture these memories and cannot wait to photograph their September wedding day at Beech Mountain Alpen Inn. In the meantime, take a peek at Angela and Andrew’s engagement photos.
