I made it to the Brown’s just in time for their Christmas tree decorating party, complete with eggnog and candy canes.  It was a nice closing for this traveler’s journey.  The Brown’s are blessed with an amazing home, a beautiful family, and an incredible bond.  I had a blast following the kids around the yard and being a part of getting ready for their annual indoor picture.   The season is here and so is the weather.  The snow and cold keeps me on my journey south.  Thank you all for your hospitality and well wishes.  God Bless and Merry Christmas!

Lauren’s heart is as big as the family.  Thank you for all your generosity.  And when it came to our turn we left the lake for some river action.  The boys are high energy and I was amazed at how Lauren was actually able to slow them down and focus for some pictures.  True boys who never leave a stone unturned or question left unasked.  I think they even enjoyed the process.   There were still some trees with leaves and the colors were great.  A perfect way to end the day and this round of shooting on the East Coast.  Happy Holidays!

There is nothing like the holidays for family.  Driving South for the winter I’ve shot four families so far.  Here is the first.  I’ve known Gail, Rory and the next two families for a few years now after shooting a reunion. An incredibly big family filled with smiles and real family values.  Again, we are at the lake, a perfect back drop for the last of what Fall has to offer.  A real blessing to have the opportunity and their attention for this shoot.  Thanks to all and Happy Holidays!
