capturing life*

I was just talking with a friend of mine today about how the best photos that I get from sessions are sessions where the family (or person) shows up and is ready to have fun! People are always commenting on or are drawn to the photos I have taken where the subjects are interacting naturally and where they are genuinely enjoying their time together and with me!
This family is a perfect example of that. This is only the second time I have photographed them...but each time I do it, I am totally reminded of how much the energy of the session comes forward through the images that we capture.

Shelly, Chas and the kids show up with an attitude of fun...and so it is easy to grab great images of them together because they are really enjoying themselves together! I can catch those little moments of togetherness and joy without anything being forced or contrived.

I think people are drawn to those types of images because they see something real inside of them.

I loved how this session turned out and am feeling ever so thankful for ALL of my clients and the unique sessions that we have together.
Thank you to each of you for trusting me to capture some of the beauty in your life.
What a delicious job I have!!! ;)
