My Favorite Family

This wonderful woman and I have been friends since we were 12 years old. She has always been one of my favorite people, and her family was the first I photographed, which inspired me to take this path in life (at the time they had one son and another on the way). I have thoroughly enjoyed watching their sons grow into fine young boys, examples of what committed parenting can accomplish. It has also given me great pleasure to watch her grow into an amazing mother. I was so excited to do this session, and can't wait for the newborn session. What's she having? You'll have to wait and see!

Backyard session

Here are some images of a fun little family I photographed recently. They had a great shaded yard, an adorable daughter and they wanted to include their "first" child (read: dog) in the session, who was so sweet. I haven't proofed the whole set yet, but I really liked the feel of these, and I'm really pleased with the vintage conversion on the third one.
