This Leesylvania State Park family session with The Goodman family is one of my favorites. Greta was AMAZING and coordinated not one, or two, but THREE different outfits for her family! I was so impressed with the excitement the girls continued to show throughout the entire session. Especially since they had two outfit changes! Changing outfits twice while maintaining smiles was so impressive! I had a blast with all four of them!

This family is different than other families and is super special to me. They trusted me as their photographer before anyone else did! A year ago, Greta and Nick hired me to take their family photos for the first time. Josh worked for Nick at the time and had mentioned I was starting a photography business. I was still pretty new to photography, but they trusted me anyway! I was super proud of our session from last year, and I still am! It was such a big moment for me that really made this whole dream of owning and running my own business come to life. I will forever be thankful to these four people for being one of my first sessions!

What I love about family sessions is having fun with the kids and playing games with them. As a former teacher, I miss being around kids because they are so fun! About halfway through our session, the girls asked to play red light, green light because they remembered it from last year! I love when the kids remember their photo session even more than the adults! Sure enough, Julianna was just as fast as she was last year!

Nick, Greta, Julianna, and Emma, THANK YOU for trusting me again with your family portraits! I absolutely LOVE capturing your growing family and I hope you love these too! I can’t wait to show you more!
