I photographed two of my favorite families on the same day last Fall. I typically don’t schedule sessions back-to-back, but with a hectic schedule in the Fall, I make some exceptions so I can accommodate everyone! And since these are dear friends of mine that I’ve been photographing for years, it was such a treat to have them all together! Even though these sessions were in the same park, I wanted them to have a slightly different feel, so I looked for different backdrops to vary things up. Also, the light changed in between sessions and wow, it’s incredible how the same place can look so different in another light. I love them both!

I’ve been photographing the Johnson family from the very beginning, before their oldest son was even born. It has been such a privilege and joy to watch their family grow. Last week, I got a surprise text from Jessica: “Just wanted to let you know that your pictures are the gift that keep on giving. C wanted to see pictures of me pregnant with him and of him as a baby so we looked through his photo books. I wish I could send you a video of his giggles, sweet questions and general amazement. It was a super special moment. Thank you for always preserving such special moments in time for me.”

I absolutely melted when I read that. Thank you Jess, for reminding me why I do what I do and why I continue to make sacrifices to keep my photography business going.

Here’s a peek at our session together last Fall.

Oh man, has it really been four months since I last blogged?! Crazy fall season transitioned into winter hibernation and poof! Four months went by just like that.  Needless to say, I have a lot of catching up to do… so many fun sessions to share from last Fall.

I’ll start with the amazing Ballard family.  I might be guilty of overusing the word amazing, but in this case, if you’ve ever met the Ballard family, you’d probably agree, they are pretty spectacular people.  Amy is a crazy talented photographer who not only takes beautiful pictures of her clients, but documents her children and every day life in such a real way.  And she raises four young children, while homeschooling them and being an on-the-move military wife, without breaking a sweat.  The one thing she wanted before moving to Germany was to have photos taken of her family, (and her sweet husband obliged) so I couldn’t have been more thrilled when she asked me.  What a treat to spend the morning with this family.
