It’s that time of year when your annual Virginia or South Florida family photos are on your mind! Photographers are in the busiest season of the year. Fall is often times when we get to see our clients that have been with us for years, like the family featured below!
I’ve worked with this family so many times over the years, I’m lucky to call them friends now. We recreated an image from their very first session with me, when they were expecting their oldest, with an updated version of their family now. We also added a film (watch below!) to document the details that photos alone, don’t. Film is a beautiful addition to any photo session to be treasured for years to come.
