This is a family that I hold very close to my heart.

I’ve been friends with Aaron since I was a kid.  He brought Beth into my life and I’m forever grateful for that.  Beth and her family have become a large part of my life, and Beth has been one of the most supportive friends I’ve ever had.  I was in Beth & Aaron’s wedding and she was in mine & Tony’s.  I love her for so many reasons – she was one of the first people to support & encourage our photography business.  One day I opened the back door to leave the house and there was a package there…from Beth.  It was a photography book by Annie Leibovitz.  Beth is so thoughtful, kind caring…I could go on and on about her.  I love her to pieces.

Beth’s parents, Greg & Amy, have been a blessing to me.  I remember 3 years ago going to Beth’s baby shower at their house and was somewhat depressed – well, not “somewhat” – I WAS depressed.  Beth’s father hugged me as I left and gave me some encouraging words that helped carry me thru the next few months.  Greg & Amy are the sweetest people you’d ever meet in your life.

I can’t leave out Beth’s brother, Tom, and his wife Gretchen.  Always including us in family events and helping us out any way they can.  For example, this Christmas we needed an electrician to come to the house quickly to fix some lights.  Tom sent someone out to help that day…I mean the guy was at our house within an hour of talking to Tom.  I’m so appreciative of everything they’ve done for us.

I was extremely honored when they hired us to do a family photo shoot for them.  It can be stressful for me to do a shoot with a family I know so well.  But, we had a GREAT time and I hope they treasure their pictures as much as I do.  Enjoy!!

I love how Greg & Amy were interacting with each other…Then Millie decided that she had enough of the photo shoot …and we JUST started.  This is a true life moment – and I love capturing those and sharing them with clients 🙂

Sweet little Nora..Aaron and Beth’s second child.

Grandma & Grandpa with their grandkids.

Amy with her mom.  

Love how Aaron is looking at Beth here.

I adore Nora’s baby chub!! 🙂

Nora is so big that Beth can hardly pick her up! 

This picture is very near and dear to my heart.  My grandfather was my BFF so I cherish these grandfather/granddaughter pictures.  I hope Addie adores this picture as much as I do…she’ll appreciate it when she’s older! 

A little collage of Tom’s family.  We’ll be photographing them in October for their fall/Christmas pictures!  Can’t wait to photograph you guys again!
