Actually, it was more like police cars, fire trucks, and more police cars! While there was a lot of commotion during this session, it was very much a success. Instead of being distracted, everyone was quite engaged. These children were naturals when it came to picture taking on. They were full of smiles, in fact per their mom’s request I had to persuade them not to smile for a few serious shots. The tree picture is one of my favorites even though my heart was sinking in fear, not that a child would fall (because I knew they were all set) but afraid the tree would break. I did not want to have to explain that to my congregation! While the flu caused us to reschedule a few time, I am happy we were finally able to meet and that everyone was finally healthy! Here’s a sneak peek.

This shoot was special to me, because it was for an old friend of mine. We grew up on the same street and played in the neighborhood together for years. Then we grew up and lost touch. Without sounding like a cliche’, we reconnected on facebook, and I am so happy that we did! I was so happy to do this session to see her and to meet her husband and girls for the first time. As we walked around, and I clicked away with my camera, I was flooded by so many happy memories. I hope these pictures will bring many more memories for them – they looked awesome! Thanks for traveling a little distance.
