Spring is sure to be here soon...I hope!

Yeah of course spring is on the way! We are all dreaming of warmer days, trips to the park, and walks after dinner!
I have been pretty busy this winter, but I can't tell you how excited I am about Spring!
I plan on doing more sessions in the country,  there is nothing  like a field filled with tall grasses, I think it makes one of the best backdrops!

I am planning on filling my calendar with family sessions every chance I get!
I love the whole idea of a family portrait! It doesn't have to be stuffy, like in the old albums.
Your photo session can be fresh & fun, and you will actually have real memories from the day too!
I don't know anyone who has "studio" pictures hung up on the wall, and has real memories to go with them.
I really don't get that!
Pictures are memories that we document, and we want to remember the moment it took place.
Otherwise it's just a staged memory, and whats the point?

I think it is so important for kids to see not only their own pictures hung up on the wall, but to have the whole family up there too!
So often I have hear Parents say," just take pictures of the kids", when really the kids want the Parents in the pictures too!
So when this snow does start to melt, and your feeling that it is time to update those pictures, think outside, because you will be so happy with the end results! It will actually be fun and memorable!
Just think of the kids!
