Continuing my good for the soul that I wrote about this morning…we have also heard that laughter is good for the soul.  If so then I am in luck because boy did I do a lot of laughing yesterday!!  It is so nice to be welcomed into someone’s house and be made to feel like part of the family.  I often leave sessions trying to figure out how I can arrange a marriage play date between their children and my own and wondering if the moms would think I was nuts if I came and just hung out with them and had coffee.  My clients are that awesome and that much fun.

When mom and I planned this first (of my three!) sessions yesterday morning, she mentioned that she really just wanted to capture the girls having fun and them being a family.  Now there are people that say that but mean they want perfectly posed, contrived photos.  Not this family.  They wanted real honest fun photos.  That doesn’t mean we didn’t set them up (jump, girls!) but it was very much a capture of who they are, every day of their lives.  Totally in their element, totally, awesomely them.   I am keeping it all black and white today since they mentioned they love black and white photos.  R. family, it was great meeting you guys – enjoy!!!
