My number one favorite place to photograph a family is in their own home.  My number two favorite place to photograph a family is…  anywhere else.  Anywhere that makes their eyes light up.  Anywhere that feels special under their feet.  The possibilities are endless, really.  Playground, ice cream shop, neighborhood pool…  Today?  The zoo.  One of my family’s favorites as well!Yes, he’s blowing me a kiss.  Heck yes.  I caught it.He really wanted his hands up…Still up…Everybody up!
What a great way to spend the day!

If I’m ever on a game show, and the question is; “When should I hire a professional photographer?” I am going to slam my hand down on that buzzer like a boss and scream, “Family birthday party!”  With gusto.  With enthusiasm.  And I will win all the prizes.  Yay me!  Family birthday parties are the PERFECT time to hire a professional photographer, friends.  Perfect.  It’s the day when all of the people that you love the most in the world are all in the same place.  Kind of like your wedding day, only better.  None of the stress.

I’ve been photographing this beauty of a five year old and her family since she was a toddler.  Now she’s a big sister and more fun than ever.  I had a blast being a part of her special day.  A tropical/Shopkins party…  Which may seem like a strange combo…  Unless you too have ever been the mother of a five year old.  Then you understand the compromise.  Tropical for Mommy, Shopkins for Girly.  Everybody wins.  And a bonus surprise!  Live music from her favorite sing-along band!  Itsy Bitsy Spider.  Always a crowd pleaser!Doggies like to sing Happy Birthday too!Happy Birthday, Sunshine Girl!
