What a gorgeous evening it was! Sure, a touch windy, but hey, that's part of the charm when the seasons transition, right? The important part was that it was still warm and oh, those autumn hues were just bursting with vibrancy as we scouted through the bushes in search of those picture-perfect spots for our photoshoot.
Here's a candid little memory that probably isn't the highlight of this session, but it's too amusing not to share. Imagine this: I'm squatting right into a rose bush while trying to capture that perfect shot with all three dogs posing beautifully for the camera. And in that split second, I had to prioritize the shot over the prickly situation beneath me. Thorn removal from my posterior? Well, that became a concern for later, of course! We got the shot, and that's what counts!
Oh, the chaos we stirred up in our quest to capture everyone's attention! Our voices reverberated through the bushes, probably startling a few critters along the way. But hey, when it comes to wrangling both pets and babies, a bit of commotion is just par for the course, right?
Mom and Dad really showed their patience as their little one's attention began to wear thin. But, together, we navigated through the session, filling up that SD card with precious moments—both candid and posed. I couldn't wait to rush home and dive into editing.
Their reaction when they saw the gallery was priceless. "I can't believe you managed to capture us all looking!" Mom exclaimed. I had a feeling she'd be thrilled about that!
We had a rather unexpected visitor during the session—a large dog belonging to a passerby slipped from its owner's grasp, giving us all a bit of a startle. Stepping forward, I gently guided them along to ensure we could wrap up our session smoothly. It was a moment that left us all a tad shaken, including Mom and Dad.
This incident serves as a friendly reminder to all pet owners out there: please keep your furry friends on a leash while out for a walk! While you may adore your pup and believe they're the gentlest soul around, it can be quite unsettling for strangers to have an unfamiliar dog approach them unexpectedly. So, for the safety and comfort of everyone involved, including your beloved pet, let's remember to leash up. Thank you!
Setting aside our unexpected adventure, this session unfolded into something truly delightful. From adorable expressions to heartwarming moments, this family brought such joy to the session. The gallery perfectly captures the essence of their first family photo experience—a perfect blend of sweet memories, with any wacky moments easily overshadowed by those precious gummy smiles and tender-loving kisses. Overall, it was a wonderful vibe that I adored from beginning to end.
