Gosh, it’s December and I’m still doing photo sessions!  Very exciting!  And as you will see in these photos, no snow, and the temperature was in the 50′s, making it feel like early fall.

I had a great drive down to Yarmouth to meet up with these two young men and their mom.  Donna showed me some portraits of her sons when they were much younger so she decided it was about time to have some current photos taken.  I love black and whites, so was super excited she wanted these to be in black and white as well.

I hope you enjoy your preview, and it won’t be long before the rest are finished!

The Chapman Family

Posted on November 23, 2011

I just met the sweetest family the other day who won a photo session from one of the auctions I have donated to recently.  I love to support the local community and I can’t think of a better way to do so than by giving, especially if I can give of my talents, which will serve both the cause and the recipients.

It was another beautiful, unseasonably warm day here in Maine for a photo session.  I know I’ve said this many times, but the light at this time of year is exceptional.  I have been so pleased to be doing sessions well into November.  I really would like to do them outdoors all winter, as long as it isn’t frigid.

Both Elliott and Arabella were such sweet little troupers.  I often wonder what goes through children’s heads when someone they don’t know shows up with a camera in hand asking them to do this and that.  For the most part they indulged me with a pose here and there, but I know it’s asking a lot of 2 and 5 year olds so I kept it as light as possible.  In the end, I’d say we got some pretty good shots!

Thank you, Emery and Troy, for sharing your family with me.  I hope your enjoy your preview.  I think we have a few jewels in there!

I think it’s important to include the animal members of the family as well, especially since they were so willing!

It’s the moments in between the moments that create memories that move the heart ~
