- Last Friday as the afternoon began to wane and evening began to creep in, I met up with this lovely, bride-to-be
And her fiancé
For their engagement session in Chapel Hill, North Carolina.
These two met through mutual friends (his friend, her sister) and their love story will make you giggle. It’s[...]

- If you’ve been reading the Barbara Bell Photography blog for a while now, you may remember it way back when we were on the Blogger platform…and you may remember reading about a sweet rescue dog by the name of Lulu over there.

- Last Friday evening, the weather turned, the temps dropped, and the wind blew strong. However, that didn’t keep supporters of St Thomas More in Chapel Hill from attending their gala and auction. The theme for this soiree? I love the 80s. The gala committee did an amazing job with their decor, and Pastry Chef Sara Bet[...]

- In March I like to celebrate “Pets and their Peeps,” but before you think we’ve gone to the dogs, consider this: the health benefits of owning a pet (or spending time with someone else’s pet) have been widely documented and are pretty tough to dispute.
For example, did you know that a study published by the Journal [...]

- As this month of love wraps up, I wanted to send an additional birthday wish out to our clients and friends who were born in the month of February. I think Style By Twee said it best when she posted this image on Instagram!
For the first of the birthdays this month, a special shout out to this guy who turned 6 [...]

- Last weekend I had the pleasure of photographing this sweet family in Morrisville, North Carolina.
Even though it's February, and it can be cold out, the sun and the light at this time of year is so stunning. Another reason for the shoot to happen over President's Day weekend was that we had the added bonus tha[...]

Before January comes to a close – this month of milestones and celebrations – I wanted to highlight the birthdays we celebrated within Barbara Bell Photography.
One of the most lively multi-family portraits I captured was with the Cleaveland family last May, and the patriarch of the family, Peter, celebr[...]

Does it feel like 2016 flew by? It does, doesn’t it? But then I take a pause and look back over these past 12 months, and realize how full 2016 really was...

- I love when I get to work with a really fabulous team who is passionate about what they do and who they interact with. This law firm, their people, and the community they've created in Chapel Hill, North Carolina believes in Carolina Blue, friendship, and being so very real and authentic.
How do I know that? [...]
