Our family loves summer vacation!! But what family doesn't, right?! Every summer we create a list of fun summer activities. Here are highlights from our 2019 Mares Family Bucket-List.
When families book a newborn session, it is possible to add-on a maternity session and two first year sessions. That's how I met this amazing family! We met around a year ago at sunset to capture beautiful maternity portraits. It was exciting to hear the news when their baby boy arrived and we scheduled a newborn lifestyle session. We spent a relaxed morning together in their home while capturing portraits of everyone in the family, including their adorable dog. In the following months we met once in the studio for a sitter session and then again back at the field where we first met, but this time to celebrate Benny's first birthday with an outdoor cake smash and family portraits. It's a pleasure to be trusted by families to capture the important moments of their lives!!
been very fortunate to be a full time newborn and family lifestyle photographer since 2016. Last fall, I was surprised when KidFash Magazine approached me to add fashion photography to my services. It has been an unexpected and quite enjoyable ride so far!
