The Smith Family | Fall

You never know what a family photo shoot will turn out to be.

Will your kids behave? Will the outfits get dirty? Will they need to go potty every five seconds? Will it rain instead of shine?

But truthfully, the best thing to do is show up with willing hearts.

Plan, prepare, do all the work ahead of time… and then simply let it be.

I can work with dirt, rain, mess, and potty breaks.

But it’s impossible to edit-in joy.

And you can’t cover up this delight.

Heather and Eric, I’m so glad we dodged all the other people and enjoyed the flowers!! What a lovely spot, a lovely family, and a lovely day. I so enjoy hanging out with your family and I can’t wait until next time! :)
