Siblings' Surprise for Daddy: Bella & Wren

Bella & Wren are absolutely precious & I'm honored to have taken such great portraits for the family. This situation is different then most sessions. The mother called me & wanted me to take pictures for her, we met & discussed the session, & I was taken away by her story & family. The father was currently serving in Iraq & these pictures were especially for him. He was unaware of the session & the pictures & she wanted them to be a surprise. He was gone for almost a year at this point & was returning within a month. Eventually, she did tell him about the pictures & he was able to view them online overseas. Her description of his reaction & their satisfaction for my photography of their children is why I love being a photographer. Pictures are timeless, ageless, & truly stop time in its tracks to capture the essence of any moment. I am so thankful for this session & experience.
Bella's already posing & she couldn't have made a more beautiful picture here. So cute!!

Beautiful family...& I love that there's a scripture on the rock in front of them.

Wren...you're so handsome!

Nothing like a bond between mother & son.

Bella is so cute...& look at Wren...he simply adores her.

So happy to have caught this shot. This is my favorite shot of the session & truly shows the love of big sister to little brother.

This AMAZING door was awesome for such a precious picture.

When shooting babies, you have to be fast & take LOTS of pictures because you never know what they'll do...well GOOD JOB, WREN!! This one's a keeper! :)

Sweet moment with mother & son. Love this. :)
