I did Saiorse’s newborn session way back in the beginning of December! I’m so behind on blogging, but wanted to share some images of this sweet girl. So, let me introduce the beautiful Saiorse…
(p.s. Her name is pronounced “seer-sha!” Isn’t that awesome?)
Once again, I am way behind on blogging sessions. This mother daughter pair was so much fun. We spent the evening on the beach, which happened to be really foggy and cold, but it still made for awesome natural light! I have to say, one of the best parts of being a family photographer is being able to capture the many different definitions of family. I love it. These two are the cutest pair!
When I first scheduled this session with the J family, it didn’t take long for us to realize that we actually lived next door to each other! They were getting the whole family together for a reunion and wanted to do some updated family portraits. I was happy to help, and we lucked out with an awesome softly-lit, overcast morning on the beach. They did such an excellent job coordinating their outfits and had so many fun ideas for different poses. I easily filled one of my memory cards and part of another before we finished. But this session resulted in more than just a ton of fun pictures for me. As I went through editing them, I would zoom in to check focus, etc. and was blown away to witness the love in what seemed, on the surface, to be an ordinary look between family members. THAT, for me, is what this is all about. I can easily get caught up in worrying about the technical details–the exposure, the light, the composition, etc. etc. But it is the moment, the love between families, the laughter, and just…real life, that is my ultimate goal. I feel honored to be allowed to capture all of that through my lens.
A(nother) big thank you to the J family for sharing your beautiful family with me!
