A month or so ago, I was able to film and photograph Erin’s birth story of her bringing Adlai into the world. When she booked her birth, so also booked a family session that would follow a few weeks or so after.
It was such a beautiful time spending another hour with this little crew. Seeing their new baby with his head full of hair and capturing them in their season of adjusting to life with two kiddos. This family has the most peaceful wonderful presence and energy. I hope they hire me next year for a family film, because I’m pretty bonded!
I got to know what life is like for them right now before the session. I wanted to know what moments right now are making Erin’s heart flicker. This is how we guide these sessions – which prevents them from being cookie cutter and just like everyone else’s session.
I wanted to capture their connection to their baby, to one another, and to their older son as well. Tell all of those micro stories, that make up their story that is their family. I never get sick of sessions, because every single one is SO meaningful and filled with real life moments.
