The Littlest Dipper

Recently, I was asked to shoot a newborn session for one of the most adorable families I have had the pleasure of knowing.

Greg and Ashley own The Hop, an awesome ice cream shop/chain here in Asheville. They are one of the sweetest and most philanthropic couples I have ever met. If you have not attended one of their events, you should! Most nights they are donating portions of the proceeds from their scoops to a local organization or charity. You can find them dipping ice cream on Merrimon Ave. or in West Asheville. The carry your normal favorites and a lot of cool local flavors that many have never heard of or had! They even have vegan and sugar free options.

Anyyyyyyyyyhow... they welcomed their son into the world recently, and he is just perfect! I feel so blessed to have been able to capture the little guy in his newborn sweetness! Here are a few shots of the little man, and his parents.

Cub Scout PopCorn Sales...

I know that many of you were in the Scouts, wether it be Boy Scouts, Cub Scouts, Girl Scouts, Brownies, etc. You know the value of the scouting experience, and you also know the cost... well to offset the cost, there are fundraisers, and for our pack the only one is the Fall Pop Corn Sales.

Over 70% of the proceeds from the popcorn sales goes straight to our scout pack and dens. It helps pay for things like Space Camp, Summer Camps, the badges, and all the costs through the year. These popcorn fundraisers are what make cub scouts affordable for everyone, and prevents our Pack from having dues.

That being said, you should click here and order a few boxes of popcorn or other goodies from Rory... if you don't like popcorn, you can order popcorn for our military troops over seas!

Here are a few shots of our den marketing this awesome fundraiser:
