my kids | charlotte family photographer

It’s not often anymore that I take portraits of my own children.  I mean, sure, I get the camera out for soccer games and swim meets, vacations and holidays, and any other event in our lives.  But, it has been far too long since I orchestrated a photo session for my own kids, the sweet faces of whom inspired me to become a better photographer in the first place.  On a beautiful fall evening, I thought I’d capture a few images for our holiday cards and scout a new location at the same time.  These images are pure joy to me and—not only that—they are a reminder that I shouldn’t let so much time pass again between portrait shots of these two (well, three—our pup, Gator, cooperated for a few).  My first thought when I got the images on to my computer was that Ella and Jack look like teenagers!  Not really, but at age 8 and 9 I definitely think they’re at a very special age where at one moment I’m not certain I’m ready for how mature they are, while the next I notice how round their sweet cheeks are and thank God they’re still so young. Love.these.faces.
