Turning 16 is so awesome (from what I can remember...ha) and Zahria had an entire weekend planned out with friends to celebrate the occasion.  This photo shoot was the kickoff of a memorable weekend for her. 

We started out the session at my home studio, then we headed to uptown Charlotte, where we continued the session in natural light and against the natural beauty of Charlotte. Here are a few of my favorite images from this Sweet 16 photo session in Charlotte, NC.
