Coley and Miranda are a powerhouse couple that I met at church when I started volunteering as the photographer. Coley is the head of the productions team ON TOP of running a productions company of his own with his better half. Somehow still, they also manage two of the cutest twinsies you ever did see! Carly and Caleb are not the kind of kids that are content with sitting still and watching the grass grow. When I tell you these kids have some energy, I want you to imagine a typical toddler that seems to have gotten into a massive can of Red Bull, then add in an equally energetic competitor fighting for the spotlight!
When we got to our location, Caleb made a run for the stairs to start exploring his new playground, and Carly came over to say "hi." It totally melted my heart. I quickly figured out that we would have to let them run the show. There were too many places to climb and hide and explore. It was really fun seeing them so enchanted by a place that has sort of lost its excitement for me. Following them around whilst they played made me fall in love with this spot again!
We developed a pattern; shoot them playing, quick group photo of everybody smiling, playing, "OOOOH TOOOOOTTLES!!!!!!!", playing, group photo of everybody smiling, somebody crying, playing, somebody hugging mom, playing, group photo of everybody smiling. If you ask me, it was perfect.
I like to think their gallery is going to read like a book, which is in my opinion, the best kind of session!
