"We can do the photos here. I'm thinking a fire in the fire pit and a walk to the lake....maybe we can even bring the canoe. Thoughts on that vision???"

I seriously have the coolest friends!  Grace's vision for her family lifestyle shoot last summer was the perfect blend of heart and home.  Her family's acre plot sits right near a lake so we decided to document a typical summer night with her brood, roasting marshmallows, enjoying a glass of wine and a sunset canoe ride.

One of the joys of my job is getting to connect with friends and clients on a personal level.  As a lifestyle and family photographer, I am privileged to be invited into see a slice of their every day life. I always try to bring my creative A-game to every session, and Grace is one of the most generous people I know.  She is a true collaborator, and always game to play along with my creative vision.  It was my honor to photograph her sweet family!
