The Shumaker’s
OH MY WORD! What a fun session yesterday!
This family was SO loving and kind and FUNNY! Especially their two boys! Being the mother of two girls it was so fun and energizing to see the other side with two boys. I LOVED IT! I might have died from laughter if I heard “Don’t touch the rebar!” one more time HAHA! If it was old and rusty and dangerous, they wanted part of it. The saying “boys will be boys” is the epitome of these handsome young men. I just fell in love with them!
What made the session even more perfect, aside from the amazing location and beautiful day, was mom and dad! (Michelle and Mark) They have been married almost 19 years! FIRST OF ALL AWWWWW and second, that is just amazing! But how they made the session even better was their calm, but fun loving demeanor. They understood how much better it is/was for the kids to just be themselves. They didn’t get wrapped up in having to sit or pose the perfect way. If the boys wanted to climb a tree dad was right there helping them do it! It was beautiful! The other thing that I loved about Michelle and Mark was their love for each other, it was almost like a fairy tale. EVERY TIME they smooched each other Michelle’s leg would pop up! OH MY GOODNESS heart melting as I am clicking away!
I couldn’t have asked for a more beautiful, day, spot or family to photograph yesterday. Everything was perfect. I must also add that this family was EXTREMELY prepared for their session, they had snacks, drinks, and even got a bottle of wine and brought treats for myself and my awesome assistant! (my hubby) I mean really!!! That was a first! And the wine with the treats was excellent I MUST SAY!!!!
So before I end this blog I Want to tell Michelle and Mark how beautiful your family is! You guys work so well as a family unit and it is really amazing. Watching and capturing you all together was such a treat. I had the absolute hardest time picking sneak peeks, just know that there are so many special ones of you guys! And to the boys… you guys ROCKED! I was so impressed with you both and your personalities are so great! KEEP BEING YOU! Thank you for being awesome and letting me photograph you!
ENJOY YOUR SNEAK PEEKS!
