Janisse, Christian, Liam, Tristan, and Family welcome baby Olivier!

I love getting to watch families grow.  These twins have really matured since our last photo session, especially now that they are big brothers to another little boy!  We had fun relaxing and playing and enjoying this new baby.  He was so alert and calm throughout most of our session together, parents were relaxed and took it all in stride, and I hope to see more of them as they continue to grow! 

Ina, Chris, Luca, Georgio, and Olivia because she’s 1!

This mom and I have a mutual admiration for each other’s work.  She does incredible hand drawn photo booth props (check out The Party Event on Etsy if you ever need them), and she’s followed my growth in my photography career.  She’d been planning this session for a while, and I’m so glad were finally able to make it happen, and on an evening with such gorgeous lighting to boot!  You can tell that this family loves each other and has fun together, and it’s always an honor for me to be able to capture that for them in their photos.  Check ‘em out.  See if you can tell, too!  So You!

This mama is the photographer who I’ve chosen to capture my family for the past 2 years, so the pressure was definitely on after she beautifully captured my family the night before!  We had planned to meet on the North side of this park which has some buildings, fences, and pathways, but our plans were thwarted by an early closure of that side of the park, so we regrouped by the field and lake on the South side of the park and enjoyed some beautiful golden hour light.

Mama was a little concerned before our session that her wild ones would be too wild, and my response was really, there’s no such thing.  Your family is what it is, and that’s the beauty I want to capture.  I think we succeeded!
