*R* FAMILY
ALWAYS with that giant smile! I JUST LOVE HER!
ALWAYS LET THEM BE LITTLE! LET THEM BE SILLY!
They have a picture from their wedding on these steps – six years ago!
We tried ALL THE THINGS to get him to sit still and smile. But sometimes – it doesn’t work. But the shots you DO get are REAL & BEAUTIFUL!
ONE LAST ATTEMPT – and it’s better than ANY looking-at-the-camera-smiling-shot!
And because she really wanted to show me her mask!
AND the side she designed! WHICH IS MY FAVORITE!
I used to post all these photos on FACEBOOK for you to see – and then I changed the process so that you see the bulk of your session in the blog post!
When I posted a handful on FACEBOOK – Amanda messaged me and said – HOW DID YOU GET THESE!?
When the parents are having a rough time because their little ones aren’t listening and aren’t sitting and are ALWAYS ON THE MOVE – I’m pretty sure they leave hoping that maybe there might be a handful of good shots. JUST A FEW.
When a parent says – WERE WE EVEN AT THE SAME SESSION!? HOW DID YOU GET THESE!? THAT’S MY GOAL. Because I know. I’ve been there.
I’ve had a kid with a lollipop in his mouth – nearly screaming – the entire time – and yet – they are HUGE prints on my wall – because that was our life then.
And through the eyes of someone else – someone who knows what to look for – where to be – someone who is not IN that frustration with you – you see your family and your life through their eyes.
And you see the beauty – when you convinced yourself that it couldn’t possibly be there.
That’s what I want to give you – AN HOUR IN THE LIFE of your family. A new perspective to your every day.
Amanda – thank you SO MUCH for asking me back into your lives each year!
