    If you like the following, then this session’s perfect for you: Dogs. Love. Music. Drinking. Victorian houses. Amazing decor. ADORABLE PEOPLE IN LOVE. MORE LOVE. I mean, it’s ridiculous. Except I’m more of a cat person, but Neville is cute enough for me to make an exception. A dog that legit smiles – who does that? ;) Can you tell who has stolen every single heart in that home? RaeAnn and I go way back – the first memory I have of meeting her was back in 8th grade show choir – we were the awkward tall skinny girls and closely bonded over that. Come to find out that we have a lot more deeper similarities and the fact that I get to know people like this makes me feel very special. Being invited into her home and family and being able to admire her INCREDIBLE decorating skills… all while being given the creative freedom to do whatever I want. YOU GUYS. I am dying of love. But anyway, enjoy!!

    THIS is exactly the type of family session that I am living for. You’ll see why once you scroll down ;) But a family that can play and just pretend that some weird lady isn’t in their face with a camera – pinch me. I would like to humble brag and go on about how naturally gifted I am at making people feel comfortable, but it also takes a little bit of chill & the willingness to let loose a little bit. You’ll want those moments in your family session – Just give in and have a little bit of fun ;)

    ANYWAY. The Chappell family and I go pretty far back, and it’s one of those funny situations where “we met online and it’s hard to remember who friended who, but we’ve always just REALLY clicked and vibed really well” type things. maybe you have it. As an introvert, I’ve found that social media and the ability to break the ice online has helped me form some really great friendships. Momma Ren is one of those. This session was the first time I *finally* got to meet her and her two boys for the first time, and I surely hope it won’t be the last. MAYBE, just maybe… keep on the look out for some future puppet shots. If you’re a lover of the arts & pure creativity, check out her husband Seth’s business – Foam Foolery! But in the mean time, enjoy this purely joyous family that I love a whole lot!
