Oh goodness was this a fantastically cold day. It wasn’t just cold it was a bit windy too causing it to feel even that much colder! Plus I think it was one of the first cold days and you know when you just aren’t ready for that yet. We had a couple of troopers though and once we got used to it and moved around a bit it wasn’t that bad. Oh who am I kidding it was COLD. But we did take a brief car break to warm up. Then after that we were good to go though we were running out of light fast, so I just worked extra fast to get the good stuff. I was worried we wouldn’t have much foliage to work with since we were at the end of the season but I think there was still plenty to be seen. Lake Ann seems to be a great location to really feature so much of that fall foliage that everyone loves. You can see in the images just how vibrant it still was even late in our fall season.
Ok so I want to add . . . did you see the image above where the toddler is running and mom is trying to catch him? All you see is mom’s boots trying to catch up. This image SPEAKS to me. It’s my FAVORITE. Why? Because he has this little determined look on his face while running away and even though my kids are older now, I vividly remember trying to catch them while I was also trying to look cute in boots. I think it’s interesting that if I asked everyone what their favorite image is from the session everyone would have a different one and we’d all have different reasons and most families would choose the image of everyone smiling at the camera with their perfect cheese face, but mine? My favorites are always the one off images that just make me feel something. Thank you to this wonderful family for keeping me in their life while their littles grow. I’ve been photographing them since their biggest was in the NICU and it’s always a pleasure.
