The Avalon is one our favorite places to shoot and we visit there numerous times a year. Even though it’s the same spot, every couple make it so unique and we never get tired of it! Every session becomes so different there because each time, the season is different as well as lighting and everything!
These days, we have been watching movies with our kids that are inspirational true stories on athletes that have overcome the impossible. I love seeing how it impacts our kids and even if it’s a little, I want them to see what “not quitting” looks like and that they can do the same thing or something even greater.
During a shoot, sometimes photos is the least of our worries… One of the things that can be a challenge for us is the fact that we sometimes have never met our couple in person which means, we don’t know their personality, we don’t know what they’re going to look like, we don’t know how much they want or don’t want to be there, we don’t know what they really think of us, we don’t know if they’re in a good mood or if they had an argument on the way to the shoot.
Recently, it dawned on me that we no longer have babies. Our oldest is 13 and our younger two are 10 and 8. They’re definitely “big kids” now, and we are now officially in a different stage of parenting. When we see parents with strollers, we can’t believe that it seems like that season was so long ago for us.
