Okay – this session was very special. I am part of a wonderful photography forum called ClickinMoms. A few months back, everyone on the forum was all about Paying It Forward. And I posted that I wanted to PIF to another ClickinMom member and give them a free family session.
Being a photographer, you are rarely in any of your own family’s photographs, so it was a great idea and many of the gals started PIF family photo sessions!
After a few emails back and forth, Cristina and I made a date and I did a family session for her. Cristina is a local photographer and does fabulous work! You can check out her blog and website here: Studio Four 13
Little did we know that, although we “met” online through ClickinMoms… we actually went to high school together! It was so good to hang with her, talk photography, and talk ClickinMoms!
Anyways, here’s some photographs from her session…. Such a stylish family with ADORABLE kiddos!
