I began talking to Susie months ago, about wedding coverage, family photos & big plans for the year to come. I knew instantly that I would like her. She is warm and bubbly, but also very clear about what she wants. A woman after my own heart. When I met up with her and Richard to talk wedding photography I also got to meet the heart stealing Maya. Seriously this child is adorable! Her goofy smile and infectious giggle totally got me. When we starting taking engagement session it was clear what we really needed was an engagement/family/kiddo session, love it! So this past weekend I met up with Susie, Richard and the ever so adorable Maya to do some photos. We had a great time running around their neighborhood and snapping away. I had a great time with this family, I can already tell next summer’s wedding is going to be a fun one!
Check out some of my favorite’s so far:
check out Susie & Richard looking all cute.
and add in Miss Maya and you get the whole fun family.
Little miss (like my self) was loving the colorful leaves. I just adore chubby baby fingers!
Susie scoped out this old school in the neighborhood, I loved the crazy mural on the wall. Perfect for putting a lovely couple in front of.
Miss Maya, like any little one her age was ON THE GO. I loved her squealing little face enjoying being free to go.
The old school also had these great doors. I love me some bright orange! This whole family was just so fun to shoot.
Check out Susie’s beautiful smile here. I can not wait to see her all decked out in a wedding dress. Susie I already know you are going to look amazing.
M also had a pretty cute smile, you know if you like that completely adorable beautiful baby kind of thing. 😉
Awww they are so lovely together.
and one last shot of the whole family. :0
