The flow and energy that went into this session made for a perfect evening. Katie contacted me about a doing a family session and I was over the moon excited! You see, Katie is a local wedding vendor (an incredible florist) and I am just completely in love with her style. She has such a passion for what she does, and it completely shows in her creations. She did the flowers (and other creative goodies) for my own sister’s wedding, and rocked the socks off of everyone. Katie has also been so incredibly supportive of our work, complimenting us until I blush. But, she’s a total sweetheart like that. ;)
Katie’s hubby Ray is an artist himself, of the photographer variety! It was such a pleasure (and so much dang fun) doing a session with such a creative family.
Reagan was teaching us how to do cartwheels. :)
Lola took a couple minutes to warm up, but she loved when I suggested tickling Mommy.
AH!!! You two are flipping ADORABLE.
In case there was any question as to who ran the show… ;)
Shyness OVER!
Tyler
Reagan
Lola
Haaa!! Tyler. :)
Beautiful babies…..
Tyler, you’re a great big brother.
Boys ;)
I had Katie do a few head-shots for the biz because she was a SMOKIN’ hot mama!!!
Me loves this.
Katie, you’re a doll.
AHHH!!! I LOVED this session.
Katie, Ray, Tyler, Reagan and Lola- thanks for your patience on the blog post! And thanks for doing a session with us!! You guys are such a precious family. :)
It was just a little over a year ago when we did maternity shots of Lauren and Mark as they awaited the arrival of their sweet little girl. It was surreal and wonderful seeing them for the first time in a year, now with their new little sidekick. :) What an absolute CUTIE they have!
This photo, to me, just encapsulates the wonderful beauty of new parents. It is such a magnificent time.
One of the few smiles we got from her that day, was looking at her Daddy.
On the way to our second location she fell asleep. :)
And she kept sleeping…..
Then she woke up and was thrilled to be at a bookstore that she loves and is familiar with. She ran around looking through books, pulling them off the shelf, and plopped down to thumb through them. It was adorable watching her!!
Lauren and Mark, thank you for letting us capture this precious time in your lives! Your girl is just a sweetie pie….I could eat her up! ;)

OK, you know how you remember a handful of shoots from your photographer friends? Last year, for me, it was your Mad Men-esque family shoot. This year, it’s DEFINITELY going to be this family shoot (and Janica’s). LOVE LOVE LOVE. The colors, the processing, their outfits, the love. It’s all perfect for the season! :)
PS – That gold jacket of Katie’s? HOT.
These are equal parts, creative/stylish/authentic/fun/real. Absolutely perfection and a timeless family treasure. Bravo.
