M-fam in Machias

A quick peek back to this fall with the M-fam.  

{Had to wait until after the holidays to unveil}

We played in the soft setting sun on the river in Machias.

We were so lucky to have such amazing colors in the changing leaves that day- 

and that color and sparkle in the river reflection- are you kidding me?

I've known Joel since my first date with my husband some 22+ years ago.

Our girls have grown up together- and we were lucky enough to get Bridgette in the deal when she joined Joel and his girls 6 years ago.

Never a dull moment  when we're all together- that's for sure!

Love you guys!

Hendrix

SNG... Squishy Newborn Goodness...

{sigh}

Hendrix....

{Double sigh.}

This kid is a total Rockstar! 

{even his name is awesome....}

This was one cool cat.  

Totally adorable and he traveled with his own security detail! 

We worked at his place on a Chilly fall morning and even pulled in his gorgeous family

for a relaxed in home family lifestyle session....

{...Which I totally LOVED!} 

His big sis A.V. made a dreamy guest appearance... 

AND....I had some AMAZING newborn props made for the studio by my girl Tracy B

and Hendrix was the first to road test them for us.

The Amazing Porter Boys

Ahhhh... those Porter Boys and those eyes {sigh...}

I know that I say it every time I photograph them- but it's true- 

I have the biggest crush on this family!

Not only are they gorgeous- but they are 

so.much.fun.

!!!!!!!!

We met last month at Bothell Landing to play in the leaves 

and the rain cleared up just for us!

I think the very last photo... may be one of my favorites of the season...

-always a good reminder that in the pursuit of the 

"Perfect" photo... we often miss the perfect moments in this life.

I'm so glad we caught that moment!

Can't wait to see you in the Spring Porter family.....
