The Napier Family

A couple of weeks ago I had the absolute pleasure of meeting the amazing Etcheverry family. They were some of the sweetest people that I instantly connected with. Monday afternoon I had the opportunity to meet Nanette's sister, Stephany, and her family who were equally as amazing!

This family was so much fun. The kids instantly showed me what characters they were and had all sorts of fun ideas for me. The kids even got their parents to participate in a few silly face photos by the end of the session. When I go into a session I try to think of ways to make the session fun and bring out the family's personal connections between each other, and when I get families like the Napiers and Etcheverrys my job is super easy and reminds me why I love my job so much!















It only took about ten minutes before the personality started to surface . . .





Luke, the youngest kept begging me to take pictures of just his parents alone. I couldn't figure out why until I finally gave in and told them it was a parents only picture . . . the kids had been planning a photo bomb! It cracked me up! I love that they felt comfortable enough with me to goof around with me!





I asked the boys what they wanted to write on their board after they tied their sister up and they both yelled stinky sister for sale. After Stephany wrote that for them, Jimmy had to add in 1 cent, cracked me up!







Right before the end of the appointment, Caroline reminded me that when I took her cousin's pictures I had fake snow for them to blow, so of course I had to have some for Caroline and her brothers also! It was such a fun way to end our time together! Thanks for the amazing evening guys!

The Etcheverry Family

It's not everyday you meet a family and instantly feel like you have known them all your life. The Etcheverry Family was so warm, sweet, and I couldn't help but feel an instant connection with them. The whole family is beautiful all the way through.

The girls were so adorable with all of their picture ideas and how much they loved coming up with pose ideas for me. We had a blast just being silly, looking at the beautiful pond, and eating candy canes. What more can you ask for than a day in the park? It was a wonderful relaxing session, especially for me when I am nearing the end of this wonderful holiday season!
