I love linking to previews of previous years photo sessions of the same family to see how they have grown and the Malena Family is no exception.
Last year the twins were just getting ready to start walking and now they are talking and running circles around Big Brother James, it is too cute. They each have their own personalities and love to make silly faces...as you will see below :) the silly face photo was just too cute to not post!
Jeanine & Jim - it is so great to keep seeing you year after year and being able to watch your kids grow. Your sessions are always one of the most fun! :) Enjoy your sneak peek!
I really lucked out meeting the Cowen family from Texas. They are awesome. So much fun.
Their Mom, Emily got in touch with me because they were coming to town to bring Chris to the Naval Academy. He is going to be a freshman/plebe there this coming fall. She wanted to capture a few family photos and photos of the kids before they left town.
Lucky for us everything worked out flawlessly as they only had a limited time frame for photos and who knows what the weather will be like. It was perfect. A little hot by Maryland standards, but I am betting they felt right at home. :)
Emily - Thank you so much for reaching out and allowing me to capture these special moments in your family's life. Best of luck to Chris this year!! Enjoy your sneak peek!
Meet The Shafer Family - or as I like to refer to them as 'The First Family'. These smiling faces are the first ones that I ever had the opportunity to photograph when I first started out my business over 3 1/2 years ago. They were as just as much fun now as they were then, if not more. I don't think we stopped laughing the entire time. From 5 year old Matthew's jokes to everyone being delirious about how cold it was in May - we had a blast.
We all braved the cold...all be it I was in long pants and a jacket and they wore flip flops, but you'll do whatever it takes to look cute in you family photos ;)
We met a very friendly (too friendly??) duck on our photo walk through down town Annapolis - he wanted to be in a few pictures as well - though he didn't make the sneak peek...
I owe a lot to this wonderful family - especially their amazing Mom Denise - she has single-handedly helped my business grow from a dream into a reality and I can't thank her enough!
Denise, Pat, E & Matthew - thank you all so much for everything!! And for being good sports with the weather and my crazy requests about climbing out on docks :) Have an amazing summer off, keep kicking butt at softball E, and enjoy your sneak peek!!
