Donna & Herb

For those of you who don’t know, Donna and Herb are my adorable Mom and Dad. I cherish each and every session that I get to do with them, especially this session. We all know that 2020 was a crazy year and keeping up with different traditions wasn’t always an option. Every fall I photograph my parents, but this year we didn’t know if it would be possible or not. Like all children, my brothers, sister, and I are extremely cautious and concerned with the health and safety of our Mom and Dad. We took all of the necessary precautions to make sure we were all safe and physically distancing, while still being able to have a fun a memorable session together.

Each fall my parent’s dog, J-Lo, would accompany them in their session. Sadly, they had to say their final goodbye to her in October. They are both such animal lovers that within just a few weeks they adopted not only one but two adorable terriers. Jade and Nita were still a little shy around new people at this time, so I had to move slowly around them. They did great for their first fall session and I can’t wait to photograph the four of them again soon!

These images are so special and I can’t express enough how much I love Mom and Dad’s giggles and grins in each image. They have some very contagious smiles indeed. I’m excited to share some of my favorite images with everyone today. Enjoy and Happy Friday my friends!
