Family sessions

I *love* it when I hear from a mom like Millie. Millie is artistic and creative and a really devoted mom -- and along with some posed shots of her mother, grandmother, and her children, she also encouraged me to hang out with the kids to get some candid photos.

So after the formal pictures I asked the kids to take me to their favorite place in their great-grandma's yard.

Luke chose the riverside...


Carly showed me a flower...


And Emry climbed a tree :-)


Then we decided to do individual photos of each of the kids with their mother. Carly didn't want to cooperate, but that actually resulted in one of my favorite images from the entire session:


Thanks for getting in touch, Millie, and thanks for a great morning -- I hope these photos bring you and your kids lots of happy memories of your time at grandma's house!
