a generational family session in the forest

You may be surprised to learn that this generational family session was not pre-planned! I know, I know I probably shouldn’t admit that to you because I seem like someone who makes a plan and sticks to it, right?! And while I admit that I like to plan ahead and have some sort of structure, I am very comfortable being flexible and pivoting.

And this session was no exception! Initially, Adele and I had planned for the session to take place on a sunny day in August and for it be of just her family, which includes her husband and two young kids. But after having to postpone the session to Labor Day weekend, the timing lined up perfectly as her parents were in town visiting. This was great because I was able to photograph her parents separately and with their grandchildren, which according to Adele is something they never would’ve gotten done themselves!
