I don’t think I can post this photoshoot without:
1. Smiling!
2. Sharing the recipe for this photoshoot in step by step fashion.
3. Feeling overwhelmingly blessed & thankful to be part of an awesome church family.
So let the recipe begin! You may notice that the ingredient that you must worry about the most is the 1 – year old. Haha.
Recipe: Family Photoshoot (3-kid version)
by Paula Richwine
INGREDIENTS:
Take all of your “ingredients” to a lovely location with lovely fall folliage.
I had SO much fun photographing our beautiful friends, Matt & Katie and sweet Maelynn Grace!
(See sweetness here……)
I simply love fall, love the colors, and love a great photoshoot with friends!…
Well this was a “first” in the wedding world. An amazing, very cool, comic themed wedding day! Chris & Becky definitely had a vision for this awesome day. See?
This was definitely a wedding “first” that I LOVED! The simplicity & details of this wedding day made for a relaxed, childlike, celebration of a stellar couple.
Adam & I ventured to Austin, TX for a few days in May to visit friends that I have known since I was a wee one! My mom and Sharon were great friends and being the youngest Wirtz kid, I tagged along to many of their lunches. I still remember coloring (for what felt like HOURS) while they caught up. When I was in high school we visited Bruce & Sharon after they moved to Austin and I remember loving the city. I seriously contemplated going to University of Texas for a while.
No, I didn’t end up as a Longhorn, but I figured it was about time we visit again. Adam had never been to Texas & I was antsy to get out of the northeast for a trip. Austin it was! While we were there, I did a photoshoot with Bruce, Sharon, their son Sean and the stars of the show…..
…Willy
…and Buddy.
I had never done a “dog” shoot before but I must say, I thought these turned out pretty cool!
I get so excited for friends having babies. Sometimes it hits me and I can’t believe this stage of life is here for so many friends! When did we grow up? I’ve known Barbie since the good old days at Elkton High School when I used to hook her backpack with my field hockey stick and pull her backwards…..
….Ok, that made me sound like some sort of bully but I promise it was all in fun (plus she was a senior and I was a freshman so I wasn’t looking to start any fights!).
