Wilkes Prom Memories: West & Central in the Spotlight
Prom night is one of the most anticipated milestones in a teen’s life, and at Pixels On Paper Photography, we specialize in capturing those unforgettable moments with timeless style. Recently, we had the joy of photographing two incredible couples—Valek & Sailym and Colton & Aubrianna—from West Wilkes and Wilkes Central High Schools right here in Wilkes County, NC.
These professional prom photo sessions were everything we love about this season—elegance, emotion, and authentic personality.
A Night to Remember
Valek and Sailym brought bold style and cool confidence to their prom session. Sailym’s dress shimmered beautifully in the golden-hour light, while Valek’s polished style paired perfectly. Their energy and chemistry made for stunning portraits that reflect not just fashion, but connection.
We also had the unique opportunity to photograph Valek and Sailym for a second prom earlier this season—this time for Wilkes Central High School. It was such a treat to see them bring a completely different look and vibe to each celebration. Their Wilkes Central session showcased fresh style and new energy, proving that every prom has its own story to tell. From updated outfits to a new location, they brought their charm, elegance, and undeniable chemistry in front of the lens. Capturing both of their prom experiences was not only an honor, but a perfect example of how one couple can create two equally memorable and beautifully distinct photo sessions.
Colton and Aubrianna embraced a more romantic and classic look. Aubrianna glowed in a soft, flowing gown, and Colton’s classic suit gave off serious red carpet vibes. From sweet smiles to quiet moments, their session was full of genuine emotion.
We selected a beautiful natural outdoor setting in our outdoor portrait garden to complement their looks and give a timeless backdrop to their prom portraits. Each image tells a story—of friendship, excitement, and celebration.

The Coffey Family Outdoor Portrait Photos
Capturing Timeless Moments in the Brushy Mountains of Moravian Falls, NC
As the leaves begin to turn vibrant hues of orange, red, and gold, there’s no better time to photograph a family’s love and connection than during the breathtaking fall season in North Carolina. This was precisely the vision behind the Coffey family’s outdoor portrait session with Pixels on Paper Photography. Nestled in the serene beauty of the Brushy Mountains in Moravian Falls, the setting created a picturesque backdrop for unforgettable memories.
The Magic of Fall in Moravian Falls
Moravian Falls, NC, is one of the hidden gems of the Blue Ridge Mountains. Its rolling hills, majestic views, and colorful fall foliage provide the perfect canvas for capturing the essence of nature and the warmth of family. The fall season adds an extra layer of charm to this already beautiful area—crisp air, golden sunlight, and the smell of autumn leaves filling the air. It’s as if nature herself was inviting the Coffey family to step into a scene straight out of a storybook.
Pixels on Paper Photography couldn’t have chosen a more stunning location for the family’s portrait session. With the Brushy Mountains as a backdrop, the fall colors provided the perfect complement to the family’s vibrant personalities. From the golden yellows of the oak trees to the deep reds of the maples, the landscape itself seemed to celebrate the Coffey family’s bond.
The Family Connection: Capturing Moments of Joy
The Coffey family, full of love and laughter, was a joy to photograph. Their close-knit relationships and natural connection were apparent from the moment the session began. Whether it was a shared laugh between siblings or a loving embrace between parents, Pixels on Paper Photography worked with them to capture these candid moments that truly reflect their story.
One of the most beautiful parts of family portraits is seeing the genuine expressions of love and affection between family members. As the sun dipped lower into the sky, creating that warm, golden hour light, the Coffey family shared moments of joy in front of the camera. From playful interactions with their children to tender moments between the parents, each frame told a story of togetherness and affection.
A Family’s Legacy in Nature
Outdoor portraits in the mountains are not just about taking a picture; they’re about capturing the essence of the family in a place that means something special to them. The Brushy Mountains are more than just a beautiful backdrop—they are part of the Coffey family’s story. Whether they’ve spent years living there, hiking the trails, exploring the woods, and simply enjoying the beauty of this area, these portraits will forever be a reminder of this special time in their lives.
The combination of nature’s splendor and family love resulted in photographs that transcend time. These portraits will be passed down through generations, each one telling the story of the Coffey family and the beautiful autumn day they spent together in the Brushy Mountains.
The Final Frame
Whether it’s the stillness of the mountains or the warmth of autumn sunlight, the Coffey family’s outdoor portrait session is a perfect example of how photography can capture not just a moment in time, but the emotions, connections, and beauty that make family memories unforgettable. For those considering family portraits that blend nature’s beauty with authentic connection, a portrait photography session with Pixels on Paper Photography could be just what you need to create your own timeless memories.

One Year of Baby Milestone Photos
If you’ve ever heard a friend, relative or even yourself lamenting the fact that you didn’t get more photos of specific baby milestones, then take note. Pixels On Paper Photography offers a “Baby’s First Year Photo Package” that we thoughtfully put together so that you’d never look back in regret. We’ve just recently wrapped up photographing a full year of photos for this recently turned one year old, Holten Parker.
Newborn Baby Photos
Newborn portraits are first, of course. You cannot have a Baby Package with no baby. Labor is over and now comes the fun part: raising this little angel through the first year. Don’t worry; you can do it and so too can you get those newborn portraits taken. Part of our studio is designed specifically for these sessions, with a lovely and private place to rest, nurse and change. We suggest that you bring in your new bundle sometime during their first 10 days. We make it easy on you! This isn’t our first rodeo.
Six Month Old Baby Photos
At six months, we bring families back in for more portraits or in this case an outdoor location. Babies are ready to sit up – making them perfect models – but they are not yet walking, so we can get them alert and happy, curious and surrounded by siblings, toys, lights or in a theme. At six months, they are incredibly responsive and some of the best portraits we get are at these sessions.
One Year Old Photos
At one year, it’s time for a party, so families who buy this package set up cake smashes, celebrate on location, at our studio, with a theme, costume changes – you name it. Kiddos at one year may or may not be walking, but they are alert, are showing their personalities and are ready for their close ups.
Holten comes from a long line of football heritage. In this case we used props from his one year birthday celebration to create a custom and unique football themed one year cake smash photo backdrop in our photography studio.
The full year baby photos package deal
For newborn, six month and one year sessions, clients receive a 10 x 10 custom designed album that includes all of your favorite images, as well as an 8 x 10 portrait from each session at the end of the year. If you choose to add a maternity shoot, it’s a minimal upgrade and completely worth it. The baby package also comes with a 20% discount on all card orders, so you can send announcements or holiday cards using these images and maximize your package.
We hope you’ll call us if your curious, have questions or want to chat about the news that you’re expecting (CONGRATULATIONS!).

Spring Outdoor Portraits in the Orchards
Hello, Outdoor Lovers and Lovers of all things Pink! Even though we’ve not quite reached the first day of spring, you can almost feel it just around the corner of our part of the North Carolina Mountains.
