Gah! I can’t stand how cute this family is. Not only are they great friends, but they have also been the best clients. Only 6 months ago I was taking Nash’s newborn pictures. I can’t believe how much he has grown!
I’ve had the pleasure of meeting so many wonderful families this fall. I love getting a small glimpse into the life of each family I work with and watching their love for each other pour out as they interact with each other. I’m a little behind on blogging, so I’m combining pictures into a “family portrait post.”
This fall season has blessed us with some amazing color as a backdrop, and I couldn’t be more thrilled. I hope these rich reds and yellows can hold out a few more weeks!
I’ve recently been doing a lot of thinking about photography and life… and chocolate. *Chocolate is usually floating around in my brain somewhere.* In a world where most everyone has an iphone, constant connection to the internet, and a lifestyle that goes a mile a minute, what is the relevance of professional photography for the every day person? A portrait session should be about much more than getting a good picture where everyone is looking the same direction and smiling. You could get that with a tripod and an iphone camera.
Instead of paying big bucks to sit in a studio, think about this: plan a fun date with your family, your spouse, your pet, or yourself. Go out to coffee, play football in the park, make pancakes in your PJs, go to a corn maze, ride your bikes, have a picnic, play a board game, go to the beach, or go hiking… and invite your photographer to come along with you! Not only will you make beautiful memories with the ones you love, but you will have beautiful pictures to help preserve those memories forever. So while you’re thinking about your Christmas card, think about what your family loves. Think about what you love. Think about childhood memories… and let’s incorporate that in to your session!
Life is an adventure… your pictures should be too.
