One of my favorite sessions to date! I love my friend Ash (we go way back to high school) and her sweetest family - they have the happiest kids and they did SO awesome, which is a relief for anyone wanting family pictures. This session was taken at their parent's home in Santa Paula which sits on a gorgeous grove of lemon trees. It was overcast and ended up being the perfect condition for warm happy pictures - those clouds just made those pinks pop! My favorite part about this session was how REAL it was. The bribing was minimal and the kids were mostly just laughing at their own silly jokes (and maybe some farts haha) and the parents.... gosh I love them! They remind me so much of my own marriage - my Zach is a man's man and doesn't love to get all mushy for the camera, he'll be telling my how dumb we are as he leans in to kiss me or whisper in my ear how much he hates this as he looks off into the distance haha. I get it - pictures can feel silly and weird. How do you express JUST how much you LOVE someone and then freeze that moment for a nice "candid" picture?? All I can say is, I didn't even have to try, I just let them laugh and talk and do their thing and snapped away quietly as they teased each other. And it's no doubt my favorite part of this whole session - the happiness, the love, the looks - it's ALL THEM! Thanks Ash for this fun session, you guys rocked it.
