This session was simple, sweet, and full of personality. I met this awesome family at a beautiful garden with a stone gazebo tucked among the trees and flowers. It was the perfect little spot to pause and capture them all together.

They showed up in matching shirts, which I loved—it gave the whole session a fun, laid-back vibe. The kids were full of energy and smiles, and you could tell they’re really close as a family. Nothing too posed or formal—just them being themselves, which is always my favorite.

We kept things relaxed and let the setting do a lot of the work. The peonies were blooming, the light was soft, and everyone was happy to just be there together.

It was one of those sessions that reminds me how special it is to freeze a moment in time, even if it’s just a quick snapshot of everyday life. These are the photos that mean the most later on.

Grateful to have been the one behind the camera for this one!
