- Calling all ghouls and goblins...guys and gals...we're here to wish our October peeps the happiest and very best of October birthday wishes!
We kicked off October wishing this sweet couple Happy Birthday wishes on Instagram, and it reminded me how important it was to get parents in front of the camera - not jus[...]

- I've been a wee bit quiet on the blogging front...and boy have I missed it! There's something so peaceful about sitting down to write. It's a chance to quiet the busy-ness in the world, and focus on one thing at a time.
Like the fact that it's finally feeling like fall here in Chapel Hill, NC.
I'll take the fal[...]

- I always have high hopes for September. It could be the teacher in me because I often think Back-to-School time is the time to start new projects. Fall is the time to celebrate and get ready for the holidays.
That said, September was a scorcher in terms of temperature. The leaves were changing colors and fall[...]

- As this summer month comes to a close, I’d like to give a shout out to our June celebrations.
On June 3rd, this lovely couple celebrated their 28th wedding anniversary. I had the pleasure of capturing them and their smiles at the American Federation of Motorcyclists' Annual Gala and Awards Ceremony. Both Tom and[...]

- Hello, June! This month is known for its kick off to summer, school getting out, and so much more!
It’s when we get to pack away the winter clothes, take out those shorts and sundresses, and feel a little sunshine on our arms.

Mr. Nussbaum, a 6th grade teacher in the Fairfax County Public Schools, shares this image and explains the idiom of how “time flies” means that time goes by very quickly, and I couldn’t think of a better way to sum up this past month. May seems to have flown right by me, and when I look back through my calendar, I[...]

- Having worked with children for years now – initially as an first grade teacher and then as a portrait and event photographer – I know one thing for sure. I know that all the children I have ever met have a song in their hearts.
Every child.
Sometimes it’s a quiet melody
and other times it’s a bri[...]

- 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[...]

- Did you know that Elmo – the furry monster on Sesame Street – recently celebrated his birthday? One week ago, on February 3rd, that loveable baby monster on Sesame Street turned 3 ½ years old. In fact, every year on February 3rd he turns 3 ½ years old and has for the past 30+ years.
Fun little factoid, accordi[...]

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[...]
