A Day in the Country

This past Fall, I was lucky enough to photograph a fun afternoon with these amazing humans you see right here. Granted, I am pretty lucky to see them on a regular basis (that’s my brother, sister-in-law, and my awesome niece and nephews!) but I still had to share because this was one of my all-time favorite sessions. The little ones are at such a fun age, ready to play and go go go, especially that sweet little firecracker in the lace! Big brother Jeremy is always ready to play with the littles or make them laugh. As for Mom and Dad, well,they are just embracing this wild season of life, and doing so with grace and laughter.

I know parents tend to get nervous about having “non-cooperative” kids for their photo shoot; trust me, I’ve been on the other side feeling the same way before. I want you to re-frame that thinking for your session. We’ll have tons of fun- there will be more playing than posing, with silly noise making and games to boot. I will capture their personalities and idiosyncrasies so you can remember them just as they are. In the end I bet you wouldn’t want it any other way. Let’s let them be little.
