If you saw the preview from Sunday morning's session, you already know how much fun we had. My favorite part of this shoot, which took place in Jill and Cory's beautiful home right here in Big Lake, was the diversity of shots I was able to get--we began indoors in the sun-drenched living room, then headed outside for some fun in the snow, then came back in and made use of the bedrooms, which all makes for a well-rounded and personalized portfolio.
I love love love sunlight, and while these photos are less traditional portraits, I love their dreamy feel, their softness, the colors bouncing off of the kids' play tent..... They just make me think of childhood as the imaginative, magical world that it is.....and they reminded me how important it is for us to hold onto a bit of that magic, even as we grow older.
I love to experiment with lighting and give clients something less traditional, but I also appreciate the value of a classic portrait. This entire family has stunning blue eyes!
And what better way to spend a Sunday morning than playing outside in the snow before cuddling up in bed for some quality family story time? It's the best!
