Family: Stacey, Adam, & C

Family: Renee’, Erik, L, C

Family: Lucy, Ray, Ophelia, Levon
While I was heartbroken not being able to give this mini shoot away to multiple contestants, I was truly lucky to be able to spend a gorgeously-lit morning with this family. Dear happy family, thank you for sharing your wisdom with a soon-to-be mommy of two, for igniting my imagination as we played on the jungle…

{Preview} Family: Lucy, Ray, Ophelia & Levon
Holy moly, was it hard to pick a photo to use as a preview before I really dug into this shoot. So, here’s a photo of Ophelia laughing so happily — I believe Levon had just given her the flower she’s holding. 🙂 More to come.
