There is a great satisfaction that comes with sitting at your desk with the final edits of a family portrait session. Being able to capture the joy and love that is shared among a family is a privilege that is truly special. As a photographer, there are some things - no matter how skilled you are- you can never enhance in the frames you develop. That is the connectedness that is shared among people. And when it is there, it adds a warmth and magic to a photo that makes it really exceptional. I could feel that going through the film of this family portrait session. It certainly made editing down the final set of frames super hard!  Such a lovely family. Here are some of my favorites from this portrait session that also includes customized a customized message for the holiday season. Enjoy!
