A family and a car...

I had the fun opportunity this week to do a unique session with a great family. My friend Heather has had this car since she was almost 16. There are so many fond memories for her attached to this vehicle. They decided to sell it and wanted to have something tangible to remember it by. So...off we went! It was a fun and different challenge, especially on an extremely windy day!
Heather, I hope you like these. There are plenty more, I just wanted to put up some of my favorites.
We tried to get the car to places which meant something to both Heather and Jeff. ASU and the car brought them together, so it is fitting to capture the memories there!

This little man has been blessing me with his smiles for almost 4 years now. He was in his cheesy smile mood...but it works! I love how it looks like he is rockin' out to some music here.

This little guy was having so much fun "driving" the car and waving to me. So much fun!
Another special location, and the bribe of hiking when the pictures were done!

Love the fact that I got these two still for a minute for this one. Plus...they are holding hands totally un-prompted!
How sweet that you can see them in the reflection of the car. This car is so special to them...

We tried to recapture a wedding shot moment. They have a very similar picture of them sitting in this car on their wedding day. A few years later and 2 kids, but still smiling and in love :)


I am not a huge car person, but this car is just a beauty to look at and photograph.

I have the greatest time with this family every time we get together. I do hope we got what you wanted, it was so much fun. I know this piece of your history will be missed, but it is going to such a great place! Enjoy these :)

Two boys and lots of smiles...

I had the pleasure of spending some time with this beautiful family this past weekend. This is a sweet friend of mine which made the experience even more fun. We played with the timing and the foliage to make this a great experience for the randomly napping infant and the allergy stricken family members! :)
I just kept adding my favorites to this post because there are so many images I just love from this session. Beth, I hope we got what you were imagining! There are more to come...but I have to keep some a surprise! Enjoy!

There is something so sweet and special about a mother with her two boys...

This little man does not like to smile for a camera. I kid you not, he would smile up a storm...until he saw my camera. I can be tricky though so we did get a few :)

It has been amazing to watch this little man grow up. I have known him since he was about 6 months old and he is now almost 4. What a sweet and special kid




Thank you for allowing me into this precious family time. It was a lot of fun. Hope you like these!
