FAMILY SESSION: We Can Do It!!

family sessions
I'm coming to the end of my October session edits...
These are the families that were still trying to make it before the Daylight Savings cut off of November rode in...
I can see the light at the end of the tunnel, and I know my families are eagerly anticipating an email from me soon...
It's not easy scheduling around multiple activities and business travel...we had some negotiating challenges with our calendars for this session, but it turned out beautifully in the end...
I have never felt so valued and loved either...
You see, she's a mom too...
and she "gets" that this "business" isn't some ploy to squeeze money out of people...rather, it's an extension of myself, my time, my energy...away from my family, investing in educational classes, learning this craft, purchasing top notch expensive gear...all the while maneuvering around my daughters' soccer games, choir concerts, tennis matches, youth group get togethers, church services and not to mention the "regular" stuff of just having a home & family.
That is why my clientele often becomes family...and at the same time, they are clients that value the experience, the quality and the investment.
I received an incredibly generous gift card & note in the mail after we had to switch our schedules a bit...I can't tell you what her thoughtfulness and appreciation did for my heart...
the "business" side to this isn't all that fun sometimes...
(as I'm 100% there are aspects of others' jobs that aren't enjoyable either)
however, it's the PEOPLE side to this that makes it worthwhile...
I enjoyed meeting up with them again...I laughed at their kiddos enthusiasm (see the last picture)
I got all red in the cheeks as I watch her hubby just love on her while she tried to keep her composure...it was incredibly SWEET!
I could go on and on...but, I think you'll be able to "see" their relationships quite clearly in these images...
