I Payed It Forward!

I got together with the wonderful Smith family to return the "Pay it Forward" photo shoot that my family had with the Cooper's in early August. These are a couple of my favorite images from the session. It was my wish that the Smith's be comfortable and be "who they are". I really didn't give any instructions before the session as to what to wear, etc. During the session I gave very general direction as to where we would be going, where to stand, etc. but really wanted them to "gather round" as they were comfortable as a family. I think it worked! Creatively, for me, I used my lensbaby, which I had been itching to do more with. Beth is the photographer of the group and now she will "pay it forward" to another photographer's family. Can't wait to see that session, Beth! Thanks so much for being a part of it!
