Most people think of summer and fall for the best light for family photography. And for the most part, they're right – nothing beats the golden light of a late summer sunset. But, the more I shoot this winter, the more I fall in love with the glorious pockets of light found in my clients homes. Although it challenges me and it is not always forgiving, I love it anyways because it is natural and honest. It's real life. Which is what I have always said I want my photography sessions to be. This family is close to my heart. Ben's newborn session was one of my first and I will always be grateful to his parents for opening their door and inviting me into their home. Two years later and we've become good friends and it's wonderful to capture their newest addition – baby Tyler. Ty joined the world six weeks early so these photos were taken at 39 weeks (6 days before his due date!).
