Some people tell stories with words. . .I tell your story through my eyes with my photographs!

Last Friday, Brian and I trekked out to a new spot to meet this amazing trio!  As you can tell, they are soon to be a fabulous family of four!  During the session, we discovered that K & J drove all the way to Michigan to pick up their rescued puppy, Lucas, who is now 4 years old.  Although they were told he was a Shar Pei, just by looking at him you can tell he's a mix of Shar Pei + something else.  I personally think he is part lab, which might be why he also likes to swim. ;)  For sure, he's one of a kind!  He reminded me of a teddy bear, but sooo much cuter.  He really is as soft as he looks and loves to give kisses!

Originally, Kristin wanted photographs of Lucas; but I am so glad she decided on photographs of the entire family.  Can you believe that these two have never had professional photographs taken before our session?  They seem so natural, so comfortable in front of the camera which made my job even more fun!  Josh had Kristin laughing and smiling the whole session; and Kristin, well, she's a radiant and energetic mommy to be.  Spending the evening with them hiking around the park was incredibly inspiring to me as their photographer in oh so many ways. 

Thank you K, J, & L for sharing so much of yourselves with us.  Here are just a few of my favorites from your wicked fun session!
