There is something so incredibly special about photographing a family in their own home. Especially with Littles.
The arrival of a new brother or sister can be a lot for a wee older sibling, so it’s so powerful for them to have a safe and familiar space to retreat to when feeling big feelings.
My time with the Venia family embodied everything I dream an in-home family session to be: the good stuff real life is made of.
Documenting Canyon’s new role as big brother, Lyric’s “I just got here” vibe, and even their sweet pup’s “I still matter!” presence — each piece so precious and important to this beautiful family’s every-evolving story.
I first met Nick & Courtney just under 3 years ago at a wedding. I was the photographer sneaking out to nurse her 4 month old daughter in the coordinator’s office, and they were looking dapper as part of the wedding party. Fast forward to last September where we found our paths crossing at yet another wedding, where they were 5 months pregnant and part of yet another gorgeous wedding party I was photographing. The universe has a funny way of crossing paths at just the right time.
