Photog to the Photog

I first met Cindy at a photography workshop.  Then we happened to cross paths when I went on learning wedding with Kelly.  It was Cindy's wedding!  We recognized one another and a few months later she sent a wedding she couldn't shoot my way.  We second shot for each other over the summer.  I was floored when she asked ME to photograph her family.  I spend a good portion of my life deep into photo blogs and comparing myself to my peers.  So really, this was such an honor.  I wasn't nervous until the drive there.  Every photographer has a bit of hope in a session when it is their own family.  Just a little inkling of what you want to come out of the shoot.  We all do, we spend our lives deep into photography every single day.  When we aren't researching or being inspired we see perfect shots in little moments throughout the day.  It's just how we are.  Can't get away from trying to preserve every sweet moment.  So once I was on my way I started to panic about what she was hoping to see from my perspective.
Cindy's little man Jack is cool.  He's just cool.  He's going to be that cool kid that is still rockin' the vans when his friends don't have the cool factor to pull off the trend.  Love him and his awesome mom and dad.  Starting it off as always with my favorite:

 




So many different stories in this image:

My other fave of Jack:

My fave of Jack and mom.  The light lasts such a short amount of time for this.  The stars aligned for this moment for sure:
