Welcome to Daylight Photography!

My name is Mary Day Saou, and I enjoy living in Durham, North Carolina with my boys: Mike (my husband), Noah (our son), and Wesley (our awesome Royal Bahamian Potcake). Life has been ever-changing for us, starting with college at Florida State University, to two years in the Abacos of the Bahamas, and now living in the triangle area. It's so nice to be able to experience seasons again, and we're loving life in North Carolina.

Photography has always been something I enjoyed, but it was only when my husband encouraged me to take that leap into pro-land (and ok'd the investment that goes with it!) that I dove into the wedding and portrait industry.

My #1 goal with DP is to join you in capturing those moments that make life so precious. Often it's a combination of the big events - like a wedding - and spending time with your children, or taking a walk with someone you love. I truly cherish getting to savor those rich times with each person who asks me to document an event.

So take a look around! Check out the blog and the galleries, and definitely give me a shout if you are thinking about having someone capture your special moments!

New Year’s Resolution

Happy New Year, all! I’m not much one for resolutions, but I have a pretty exciting one on the board for this year:

to be a good MOM!

*many thanks to our friend, Clark, for the photo

Yup, we’re expecting! I’m due July 10, which means I’ve just finished my first trimester. Whoo-hoo! It’s already been a crazy ride, and we are so excited for the craziness to come. I’ve wanted to be a mom my whole life, and I can’t believe there’s a little baby growing inside of me! I’ve been feeling pretty good so far, although chicken is a no-go these days. (CRAZY, since I *used to* eat chikfila at least once a week!)

So I guess I can check this one off my 101 list:

36. Be pregnant

You may see just a few blog posts in the coming months keeping you all updated. I don’t want to inundate anybody with these things, but we’d love for you guys to hear about the big stuff.
I hope you all have a safe and happy New Year! Welcome, 2012!

Personally, I think you should hold for July 13th. The most fabulous of babies are born on that day! I tried to get Myra to be born that day, but she wouldn’t listen. Hopefully, your baby is more agreeable. :o) Love you!
