The Wallis Family: portraits in the park

Yesterday was such a full day. My Alexis had her baby yesterday. Zoe Gabriele was born. I'm getting ready to head back to the hospital to see this precious baby again but I wanted to share this amazing family with you first.

I met the Wallis's through the Anderson's so it's only fitting I post their blog on such a special day. :D This family, let me tell you, they are troopers. Our session was only 30 minutes long and not even 5 minutes in it was literally raining. You could see the drops falling from the sky and they still stuck it out for pictures. They're *amazing*!! Jacob and Natalie have the cutest smiles, especially when Natalie crinkles her nose. It's one of the cutest things I've ever seen.

















You know how I said it was raining? The kids wanted to ride their bikes and Natalie had just learned how to ride without training wheels so Steve ran next to her, in the rain, just to make sure she didn't fall. Um.. can we say Dad Points?!












Another thing I LOVED about this session was, while we were shooting Marina said she hasn't had portraits done of her and Steve since their wedding. How privlidged am I to be the first to take portraits of them??
