As the oppressive summer heat settles in, my mind can’t help but to drift back to my favorite season…in a setting on an evening that was pure magic. [last time we saw them…]

She had mentioned red, white, blue, and sparklers for her session. The day of, I happened upon the PERFECT quilt at an antique store. But the quilt and the sparklers aside, it was their comfort and connection as a family that made this session for me. Her son is such a gentleman. Her oldest daughter is full of life. And that baby girl is full throttle, no fear, she believes she can do anything, LOL! (I don’t normally let kids climb on ladders at my session…they found it and there was NO stopping that little one!)
And they just take it all in stride. You can see the pride in mom’s face when looking at what she and her husband have created together. You can see how much her husband loves them all. *That’s* the kind of thing that makes me grin from ear to ear whenever I’m proofing a session: when you can actually SEE love.
(To see another one of my favs from this session, don’t miss this one!)
I said to her, “What do you think about doing your entire session in a parking garage?” She said, “Awesome!” And the rest was Pinkle Toes history…
P.S. Last time, that little guy was elsewhere ;-).
P.P.S. LOVE her sense of style and that awesome hair color! Meg…you pulled everything together beautifully!
in one of my most favorite spots. You just can’t beat it!

I was feeling somewhat caught up and ahead of the game tonight. Then I made the mistake of looking through the archives and realized there were about 30+ sessions from last year that I had yet to blog. To which I replied, “Well, hmph.”
At least now we’re at 29+.
When I sat down to think about it, I’ve known this lovely lady for nearly a decade. In fact, she and I were pregnant with our first sons at the same time. We both had our 2nd sons at about the same time. We both had little girls at about the same time. She is a true lady in every sense of the word and she mothers her children with a grace that I could never emulate but absolutely admire. I’m so glad I finally got the chance to work with her like this and to capture the wonderful connections in her family! (Check out my personal fav from this session!)

These guys are no strangers to the Pinkle Toes blog and I can’t even begin to tell you how it makes me feel to think that most of my blog posts are of repeat clients. It is truly a privilege to get to watch these kiddos grow up. Love this tradition of having everyone there for his birthday (just like his big sis) and I LOVE that we sat him on the table with his cake (just like his sis). It was a very happy day! (Click to see my two personal favs from this session bigger HERE and HERE;-).

Golden, hazy sunrise.
Bubbling creek,
Giggles and shrieks.
Bears, blankets, wagons, and sparkles.
Sunday morning church bells.
Tears of trepidation,
Of happiness.
Adopted.
Loved.
So very loved.
A most memorable session yesterday where I felt like I was literally witnessing a family become a family.

Just a tad. It’s kind of fun to see the feature in this issue of CHIC Magazine, but even cooler to be among so many other incredible photographers and tons of photog eye-candy! Although, reading through my own Day in the Life, I may have given myself a headache 😉
