Josh and Christie

On a crisp fall day with the sun on its way down, there's not much that could have topped the couple minutes I spent with these two. 

Kreykes

Being away at school means that we don't always get to see our favorite families/clients very often. Coming home to this posse of heart breakers was quite the treat.  The Kreykes family was one of our first clients, and their end of the year shoot is always one of our favorites. 

This is usually how it goes:  they pick the most arctic day of the year, show up, spit out their gum, get the shivers out, and show us how beautiful and precious they are in about 15 to 20 minutes before running back to the car to get the feeling back in their fingers.  This year...tradition has been altered.  The day was beautiful. No blue gum was spotted in between teeth.  Laughter was abundant.  The Kreykes family was as beautiful as ever [although we can't share too much with you because Christmas card season is officially upon us]. 

 

The second part of this incredible day was a 9 month shoot for the youngest Kreykes, Claire.  As precious as she was when we took her newborn pictures, she stole our hearts even more this time..

We never intentionally enhance people's eyes...for people like this when the natural intensity is enough to take your breath away...
