I met this family for the first time just minutes before these images were taken. The mom just called me last week and wanted to have portraits taken of her 8 month old son before he was crawling (and would likely turn away from a snap happy camera lady). Being already booked and impending vacation, we had to act fast. She found me online after sorting through a handful of photographers, and I felt honored that she chose me to document their family.

I have never done anything like that before but I am inspired to maybe have some family ones taken since I didn’t have senior portraits taken of Regan.
Wait until I show these to Chandler, she wants to be a photographer. She love photographing all her friends.

I hope she is not too expensive, because you have to have ALL of those pictures — make sure you get the ones with you — you've never looked better! (ok, slight exaggeration)
Love, Lissa
