During the planning phase of this session, Mom told me that she wanted photos “of the boys having fun, just doing what they do.” So, we played!
One of my favorite things about this session was witnessing the strong bond between brothers. Big bro knew just how to make the little guy laugh, and giggles spilled everywhere when they hugged/wrestled. I think the only thing better than hanging out with the boys was watching their mother’s face as she looked on from the sidelines.

As I pulled up to this sunrise session, I immediately fell in love with the location. There were beautiful waterfront inlets, winding paths, and a playground. But more importantly, there was a golden, glowy light that really set the scene for the morning.
Then, when the family emerged from their car in colors that exactly matched the mood of the day, I almost did a little happy dance (thankfully, I was able to restrain myself). I loved the way Mom knew just the right things to do to get her sweet baby to laugh, and Dad looked at his girls with such adoration. Watching the family just “be” was so natural and magical.
My favorite part of the session was when Mom pulled out a handmade book filled with all the things little G loves most – sparkles, buttons, mirrors, flaps and more. It was incredible! Some very special relatives crafted it just for her, and the amount of love contained in that little book was absolutely beautiful.
Joanne Piazza says: I thought the pictures were spectacular. It's not easy to get a 1 year old to smile and laugh on cue, but Gracie is very photogenic. I especially love the one in the chair with the book and the one snuggling with Mom and...they are all beautiful. on 08.30.11 @ 7:46 am
