My photo
Welcome to my blog - where I can share my personal life and my photography! I am married to the most wonderful man and I have an amazing little boy who lights up my every moment. I have always loved taking pictures but over the past few years it has really become a more serious passion. I think one of the most fun things about taking someone's picture is being able to CAPTURE that particular moment in time so that it can be held onto forever! I prefer natural light, on location photography that allows people to just be themselves. If you are interested in contacting me regarding photography please send me an email to holly@simplycapturedphotographybyhollybenfield.com Oh yeah, and I'd love to hear what you think ... so feel free to leave comments at the end of my blog posts. God Bless!!

Merry Christmas!!

Merry Christmas from our family to yours!! What a special special time this is. Having Wyatt to celebrate with is just such a blessing and it has made this Christmas Season so much fun!! I thank God for all of my many blessings and I pray that He blesses you in the new year. Thank you to everyone who has invited me into their lives and given me the great opportunity to capture a special moment in time. My hope is that I can truly expand this passion of mine in wonderful ways in 2012.

I posted a short sneak peek of Wyatt's Christmas Portraits that I did but here I'm posting several more - along with a few other random shots.





What a face !!

Our First Santa Visit - It didn't go too well, as you can see



Our Second Santa Visit - Ahhh.....much better!





Love and Blessings,

Christmas Portraits at The Garden, Gastonia Children's Photographer

Here is a sneak peek at Hayden's Christmas Portraits! We had a great time exploring Daniel Stowe Botanical Gardens today although it started to get very cold. I hope that I was able to capture her special spark because she truly is an amazing little girl.
