Back in November a potential client contacted me about a family session. As she explained to me what she wanted and how she wanted it captured I knew it would be like none other I have ever shot before. I sent her all of my information and she then promptly paid her booking fee. As we talked over the next few days and weeks I learned she and her family live in Canada and will be visiting her parents house in Louisiana during Christmas.
What made this session so special is that her parents are thinking of selling her childhood home and this year may be the last Christmas in the home.
The day before we touched base and confirmed on a time and location.
Then the fun began. RAIN, FOG, MUD, AND WARM WEATHER!
You know your normal winter Louisiana weather!
I walked into their home and the smell of Gumbo had the whole house smelling great! The fridge was covered in photos of grandbabies, friends and family! Kid's toys scattered on the area rug in the living room and a little one at the table coloring on a "vintage" place mat that was more than likely her mom's or uncle's. This was a home that has so many memories that will last a lifetime and a half!
After everyone knew my name and everyone told me their name. We got started... So take a look at a few of my faves and some that touched my heart.
Thank you for allowing me to be apart of your life!

I hope this is the first of many blogs for me! I really enjoyed writing it. It only took me around 6 hours :(
