It’s not always easy….{ Richmond Va Family Photography

But this job sure is fun!
I had so much fun a few weeks ago working with Ashley’s adorable family again!
You may remember her little cuties from back in the Spring …

Such stinking adorable little fellas!
I was so happy to get to work with them again a few weeks ago!

This age is tough..isn’t it?
The busy busy busy of day to day life…throw in a couple of young children and you normally get two very tired parents.
I know….I have been one of those “very tired parents” before.
I know just how much my clients must really want to capture these fast fleating childhoods.
Often that means extra time and effort on my part and I am just fine with that.
These pictures…moments…are so important to capture.
They are very temporary.

We met up for a fun few hours of letting the children keep us in constant motion.

I love that though…I love letting the moments just happen and the kids be kids.

I brought a pumpkin at the last moment…cause after all it is the Fall!

We moved on down the road…
I loved how sweet the boys were with each other…

I often do shots like this for the single purpose of the next time we do a session or the parents visit the park they can take another shot and watch how fast this little fella grows!

The cuteness!!

I remember a few years ago when I took a picture of Haley holding my hand…
she was like “Why did you take a picture of me holding your hand?”
I answered with “Because one day soon you won’t want to hold it anymore. I want to always remember your sweet little hands in mine.”
I love that photo even more now….since she seldom holds my hand anymore.
When I caught him holding his mama’s hand and I had to take a picture…

Then there is this temporary time period where you can still hold them both at the same time…
When both kiddos can still be held by daddy’s strong arms.
No place feels safer when you are tiny…
