My style is a mix of candids and posed photographs.
I know Mommas love the "posed" pictures with everyone looking and smiling, but the candids are so special because they are REAL LIFE! Many, many times mommas end up loving those even more.
I, all too often, get the "do you think you got good ones?" from parents, and in my head, I know I have literal GOLD on my SD card.
When I shoot your family's photos, I am doing it with the idea that I would adore these on my own walls.
