Every once in a while, I have session where each and every shot is Pinterest worthy. Thanks to the amazing location, weather, lighting, and more than anything this adorable family, the Willoughby’s session on Friday night was exactly that. Even though they make it look easy, coming from a momma with kiddos very close in age to these two, I know firsthand how challenging and tiring a family session can be. Sometimes I hear moms say things like, “I hope there’s at least one good one,” or even apologize for their kids being kids.
I know it’s a lot easier for me to see than the parents, but when you’re praying for just one good shot to put on the wall, I’m behind the camera watching every moment and saying to myself, “How will I ever pick favorites?!”
I hope every family gets the opportunity to capture these moments. As proven by this precious family session, every ounce of effort is worth it. In 20 years when you look back on these images, you’ll remember your baby’s giggle or the way they held your hand, not the bribes and meltdowns. Plus it’s a good excuse to go out to eat afterwards.
Thank you so much, Benjamin, Josie, Jaxton and Lilly for spending your evening with me. It was truly so much fun!
