I'll let you in on a little secret...this location happens to be right outside my backyard and it is a hidden gem in Southern Oregon! Tall grass, big trees, oak limbs reaching across trails it is a fall delight!
I've been photographing this family since their oldest was just a few months old! They have become some of my dearest clients, who also happen to be very close friends. Their father passed away tragically a few years ago so it's always bittersweet to be capturing these boys and their mom together.
I hope you scroll through this post and see some really tender moments. I had this feeling to have them all take a break and lay down on the blanket during the session and look up at the sky. I loved watching them all interact, hold hands and giggle together!
Life is certainly busy with three boys, but I hope these moments that slowed down for a moment in front of my camera and treasured for many years with this dear family.
