ep, the title and her shirt pretty much sums it all up. There was lots of love going on in this family and I think it's pretty evident by these photographs:)
Great meeting you all! It was a privilege capturing your beautiful family!

eah, I know what you're thinking....what a weird blog post title! I'll explain here in a bit. But first...
I think one of the best parts about hiring a custom portrait artist to photograph your children is getting to see your children through someone else's eyes. It is fun and enlightening and interesting to see what kinds of expressions the photographer can get from them, perhaps even ones that you, as their parent, cannot get. I even think that holds true even if you are a photographer yourself. I know it is for me!
So, over the weekend, I had the pleasure of photographing a photographer's family. It was the talented Andrea Burns of
Andrea Burns Photography, her husband and her three beautiful children. (those of you who shop the
Pottery Barn Kids catalog may recognize little Audrey...she was PBK's baby of the month a few months ago!!!)
We had a beautiful evening for our session now that the hot humid weather seems to be gone. The sky was a crispy blue with just the right amount of clouds. I felt like I got to know them a bit too as we sat and ate our hamburgers together under the shade of a big tree and it was there that I learned that they are just as beautiful on the inside as they are on the outside. I also learned that Andrea has a very high pain tolerance (toenail!) and that they have an awesome sense of humor. They joked that they had talked about naming their kids "rug", "sun" and "wind"...since their last name is Burns. Ha!
Anyhow, it was a pleasure to meet all of you.
Andrea, here is your family...though my eyes:)
Did I mention it was windy? Wind definitely makes for messy wind blown hair...but also for happy natural smile:)

ay! Hooray for gorgeous sunset light, late summer grasses and greenery and YAY for an adorable 13 month old and adorable clothing!
I had a great time getting to know little Miss B. At first, she was pretty somber (yet pleasant!)...but by the end of the session, she was all smiles and even let me pick her up and carry her! Isn't she gorgeous! I still can't get over her hair. It was so long for that age and her mom told me that she's already had to cut it something like five times!
It was great meeting you Mr. and Mrs. B! I hope you enjoy your sneak peek!
