This year when I photographed this crew for their family photos, we had a surprise at arrival! It was the evening of the park’s annual, Moon Over Maclay music event. The area we were planning to work in was full of guests picnicking on blankets and enjoying some live jazz! Thankfully, this sweet family just rolled with the punches. We explored another area of the park to take these images and I love them so so much.

I think my first session with the Matthews family was when their little guy was only 1 year old. It’s such an honor to be a family photographer. I don’t take it lightly that clients would trust me enough to return for multiple years. I love doing this work for families.
