I met Renata in college!
I took their engagement photos and an after the wedding session!
I met up with her this summer for a mini session – but Matt was out of town unexpectedly – so we scheduled a family session for the fall!

They’ve added a sweet little guy to their ADORABLE family!

So – this session. It rained. It was overcast – REALLY overcast. We had to sit in the car and wait out the rain – TWICE!
But – some of my favorite images EVER are from this session – totally worth the waiting!

Matt & Renata did a GREAT job of just being themselves – and letting me capture a little bit of their lives!

Little *A* took a face plant in the mud. And didn’t cry. And was still awesome!
