I started calling my photoshoots with families "Backyard Sessions" a few years ago because that is how I want you to approach your time with the ones you love. Be focused on making some memories, laughing, blocking everything else out for just the short amount of time we are together and love on your loved ones. If you can lean into doing anything you can to make the people with you smile, I promise, it will be worth it. You may even create a memory that sticks with them forever.

Be yourselves and have fun. I'll do the rest!
