This Christmas I had the privilege of getting to do a generational session with a family that I have known and loved for the last decade. 5 years ago I was able to to shoot Hillary and Spencer’s wedding so I’m sure I met most of this extended family there but actually getting to sit down with them and hang out with all of them before they did their family Christmas was just so sweet! It was the first time really meeting the original Martin couple, Jack and Phyllis, (even though I’m sure I briefly met them at the wedding).
Jack contacted me to do family pictures of all of them since they were finally all together and since some of the members live far away this doesn’t always happen so I was incredibly honored to be part of this event. We ended up doing mini sessions with all of the different smaller families and then put everyone together in the main house to capture everyone from the 2 month old youngest member to the starting duo, and let me tell you, I think sharing in the fun of a family gathering and documenting a legacy of these two was remarkable. Whenever I share time with a family I get a pretty great idea of who that family really is and this one is pretty special! I loved my time with them!
