Over the weekend I got to spend a day with this lovely family. I truly had a blast…I drove away thanking Jesus again for my job and the wonderful people I get to meet.

When talking over the phone, Jana and I labored over where to hold our photo shoot. The location really speaks a lot about the family, and when families only take professional photos every few years, we need to get it right! Jana wasn’t sure if I should even come to their home because she said it was so small and wasn’t sure about the available light. She kept saying it was tiny and full of things because she has two kids, and of course I understood because…well…homes are made to be lived in! I went to their home anyway and I am so glad I did! What a lovely home they had, modest in size but absolutely overflowing with beauty, love, care and thought. Walking in I was greeted with such a welcome and I knew right away that this would be one of the funnest sessions I’ve had to date. We could have spent all day in their home (and almost did!) but we ended up making our way to Maidu park in Roseville and that was a great decision as well!

Thanks Jana & Chris for allowing me into your home and spending the morning with me. I had a blast! I know we spent way more time with each other than planned and I thank you for that! I hope Collin got the strawberry ice cream we bribed him with, he deserved it!

I definitely will be blogging more from this session, but for now here is a sneak peek into our day together…
