The gift that keeps on giving--these ADORABLE FACES! Have I mentioned that I LOVE getting to see my families every year? Because I LOVE getting to see my families each year when family photos roll around again. And, as you'll see, the wait is well worth it with the Suttons! Getting to be part of this especially homey shoot last year was one of my favorite and most entertaining sessions to date, but this year the kids outdid themselves, and not just because they're so well-versed in Paw Patrol. I felt like Barbie at the end of Toy Story 2--I had to go unscrew my smile so many times while editing the photos with these cuties, because the joy, the character and their personality is simply unending and guys, I couldn't get enough!
Even Baby Wadey who wasn't with us for last year's fall foray took so easily to the camera and offered some especially inspiring roars of delight; he was the perfect mascot and cheerleader--I should take him with me to every shoot and I'll basically be guaranteed huge grins and ear-to-ear smiles!
I'm so grateful to Krissy and Wade for not only their deliciously fun kids, but for their ease and kindness during family photos. I love that you allow and want your children to be themselves during these sessions; each of you is beautiful and real and when I see these photos, I feel like I know your family even better. The fact that you center these sessions around your home, your family and your real lives adds this raw, stunning genuineness I can't fake even in a jaw-dropping, perfect photo. The love is simply palpable, and I just feel blessed to witness it again and again as we spend this time together.
And to any of my readers reading this, I hope you find that real joy in your home and holidays this year. Love really is the reason for it all. Please choose it. I promise you will be happier for doing so. Choose your love, love your choice.
