I’ve been photographing this family for about 9 years, now. They have consistently sought me out for my services, not because I’m excellent but because they know how much I care about their needs and how well we work together on the images. Each member of the family has a say in the production of the yearly event. But most important in the entire theme is that everyone is comfortable; with their clothes, the location, and with each other. It is to the point that I feel like a family member. I am honored that they keep calling on me for this function.
