Everyone knows Emma - she’s your sweet, hard working, rockstar realtor and community driven mama. She’s up for anything, always in the know, has 3 boys, and a busy work life. I honestly don’t know how she does it. Last summer we talked about doing a shoot together for fun - I needed some cute couples to do some fun shoots I had stewing in my mind. Originally I planned on taking them on an ice cream shop date, but we ended up never getting around to it (I was heavily pregnant). This year we made it happen; only I had a whole other vision for the shoot. A romantic, whimsical, documentary-style session. She told me it was their 10 year anniversary and I thought how perfect this would be. Just capturing the two of them. The life they’ve built. Treating them to a (likely rare) date night where they didn’t have to focus on their kiddos and could come back to a place of refocusing on each other. I love the family sessions - they have a special place in my heart with the candid moments, smiles, & playfulness. But don’t forget to treat yourselves to moments of just the two of you. Where this life started together. And celebrate everything you built from it.
