I've been feeling like the, "memory keeper," of our family lately. Clearly - always the person with camera in hand.. iPhone out for videos. The, "okay, just one more,", "Yep- move to the right a little," "Okay - she doesn't have to smile if she doesn't want to." Sometimes I think its a little too much... until I go to look back, or the girls watch videos from days, weeks or years before and I think these are the seconds I want to relive over and over again as the years go by. Treasuring the minutes that have gone by while always looking forward to those yet to come.

And to be honest, as odd as it may sound, I feel like I'm a little bit of a memory keeper for your families too. When I send off those images, when I create the canvas', the prints, the slideshows. I relive our sessions, the laughs, and sometimes the cries, the invitations to breakfast... or not too long ago, the cutest little guy asked me out for drinks! Ha. I love it all.

The Tanner Family in home session was full of all of my favorite memory making moments:

giggles, jumping on the bed, reading, squeezes, story telling, gorgeous window light, lots of asking to see the back of my camera, pups, bedroom tours, an outfit change, pumpkins, crowns and a 6 day young baby that let me bounce her to sleep— and then kept sleeping (total score!)

After 2 hours, I walked away feeling such warmth and love... and a little bit tired, because you know a 3 year old and newborn are hard work.. haha. I've watched this slide show a dozen times.. and each time I think- ahhhh how lucky I am to be a part of these moments. To witness to the lives that these parents created.  Hope you enjoy <3
