There's no BUDDY like a brother...

I had such an incredible fall...

I can't even begin to tell you about all the amazing families that I met...

Don't get me wrong...I enjoy weddings, I love cuddling newborns...but oh....there is just something about hanging out with a family..

watching siblings interact...chat with a mom...mom to mom...smile when I catch a dad just smirking as his kids' personalities just shine and we all start laughing!

It's what life is all about:  RELATIONSHIP

And the people I meet GET that...They want me to capture that on "film"...they understand that life is more than just paying bills and getting on the right team...it's more than 3 square meals, getting good grades or even getting to work on time...

When it comes down to...it's about doing life together...it's about the bonds that are made between mom and dad...brother to brother...parent to child...these are the things that last...

This incredible family gets it too...it was plain to see what was important in their household...because it came out without any prodding from me...I asked them to be themselves...let's go for a walk, let's play together...and these are the types of images that graced the front of my lens...

I'm just so, so thankful for the amazing clients that come to me each year...it always fills me with such gladness and hope!!
