We had so much fun during this Charles Langer Family Park Family Session yesterday morning and it shows in these photos!!
Lisa reached out to me about a month ago to book family photos and I was so excited that there was a day on both of our calendars that worked! Lisa and I used to work together and let me tell you, this woman is an absolute ROCKSTAR!! She is always giving everything she is involved in 110 percent. She is a wife, mama, healthcare worker, multi-awarded Presidents List and honors student at Herzing college and she recently became a Wish Granter for Make-A-Wish. She is also crushing her health goals. Lisa is so sweet and is one of the best people you will ever meet. It was great to get to catch up yesterday!
I not only got to hang out with Lisa yesterday, but I got to meet her husband, Tim, and two sons, Caleb and Dominick. Prior to our session, Tim and Lisa were able to check out the park along with their dog and found a bunch of amazing photo spots that I didn’t even know existed, even after shooting sessions there in the past. Check out the cool wooden wall in some of these sneak peeks! The weather was a little windy and chilly but the rain held off for us which we were so grateful for.
I love how Caleb and Dominick’s personal styles comes through in these photos. Dominick and I talked about his excellent drawing skills. Lisa told me about this amazing portrait that Dom drew of their dog Lenny. I’ve tried and failed so many times to draw dogs I cant even tell you. My hats off to Dom! Caleb and I chatted about school, his favorite classes are math and geography. We also talked about some awesome gym games. Turns out kids these days (wow I sound old) still love capture the flag which was one of my fave games in gym.
During family sessions I make sure there’s some time for mom and dad to get some portraits all on their own. With how crazy life is, especially now, it is so important to slow down, be together and soak in each other. Aren’t Tim and Lisa so sweet?!
Lisa, Tim, Caleb and Dominick,
Thank you so much for choosing me to capture this session for you. I had such a great time with you! Tim- good luck opening weekend, I hope you get a big one! I wish you all a safe and heartwarming holiday season!
Best,
Jen
