In home lifestyle session {Mountain Island Lake Charlotte Newborn Photographer}

Mandy Byrd October 11, 2017

I got to visit this little beauty in her home for her newborn pics.  She was perfect and her parents were pretty awesome too!  And can we talk about how many cute dogs I get to meet at my sessions?

I'm Mandy and I am a family photographer living in Charlotte, NC with my husband and two little girls.  I'm obsessed with light, color, and capturing the beautiful moments that are real life.

Highlights from day 5- we drove from Marathon to Key West (after Hampton Inn’s finest breakfast- their coffee cups and sleeves are 👌 for kids. They collected them over the course of our stay there and played with them like dolls. It’s amazing how creative they get without electronics readily accessible). The drive there was insanely beautiful. The girls swam in the pool while we waited on our room (people aren’t kidding when they say the Keys are not known for swimming beaches- bring water shoes if you go- ouch!). Later we headed down to the main area of Key West and took a sunset sail where the girls drank too much soda 🤦‍♀️ , enjoyed the beautiful sunset & water, then ate dinner at Sloppy Joe’s for it’s authenticity and live music- turns out you really can’t have kids in bars on Duval Street after dark and we were escorted out soon after eating🤔 Uber back to the hotel included a dog named Cora 🐶 #roadtrip #springbreak #teslaroadtrip #keywest #nikonz7 #parrotkey
Day 4 was a good one🌞 We visited an aquarium and it was definitely a highlight for the girls- they had never seen or touched a stingray and it pretty much blew their minds. I think they named pretty much every one and it was one of those, “just one more time” situations when we tried to leave. We ate lunch @keysfisheries (highly recommend for the laid back marina atmosphere and fresh fish) and drinks were spilled for the 2nd time that day (anyone else on constant high alert for cups hanging 1/2 off tables or elbows nearly swiping them with every move?). Then we packed up our beach bag, headed to @sombrerobeach where the girls looked for crabs (photo of “bob”). Charged at the marathon airport on our way back to the hotel & had treats @sweetsavannahsbakeshop while we waited. The girls found some coconuts on the walk back which proved to be more fun than the souvenirs they begged for & we topped off the night with pizza at the pool. Why do vacations have to go by so fast?!?! #marathon #floridakeys #sombrerobeach #springbreak #roadtrip #keylimepie #tesla #nikonz7
Day 3 of our road trip! Left Miami in the morning with a brief stop at a supercharger in a parking garage (totally uneventful), made our 1st stop in Key Largo for lunch @buzzardsroostkeylargo (so good & fresh the kids even loved the fish sticks). Made our way to John Pennenkamp coral reef park where the kids snorkeled for the 1st time- they thought it was the best thing ever until they thought they were getting attacked by mysterious sea bugs so that was that🤷‍♀️ We stopped at @robbiesofislamorada to feed the tarpons and get some treats (chocolate covered key lime pie on a stick!) a quick charge then hotel in Marathon. Dinner, pool, bed 😴 btw, he water here is 😍😍😍 #keylargo #sprinkbreak #roadtrip #tesla #floridakeys
