I always love the shifting of the seasons and the excitement that comes along with it. Summer is of course so busy for most families, and I think it’s a wonderful idea to celebrate all of that time spent together and the memories created with a family session. What a beautiful way to shift into autumn.

This family was so fun to photograph. We met at the most beautiful and secluded location under a weeping willow tree in Rochester, NY. As the sun set, they loved on each other, spinning and laughing and just enjoying one of the last evenings of summer together. I think the images captured their sweet family dynamic so well.

I am filled
with you and
I am trying
every aching day
to fathom the beauty
of our symmetry,
and understand how,
two bodies can live
so well, inside
one.
