Mike + Janelle Family Portraits + Surprise Birthday

One my recent portrait sessions was quite the unique one. It was a surprise birthday! The plan was to convince Janelle her husband Mike booked a family session. Which he did, and it was fun. At the end of the session, a limo picked up Janelle, which already had 3 of her best friends in it. She was then whisked away for a bit and I met them for another mini session down at the Marina before their dinner.

It was a snowy day, but it just made everything that much more epic. Plus, seeing the different levels of happiness throughout the sessions was so rewarding. Not only did Janelle have fun on her family shoot, she had a blast on the shoot with her and her friends.

Tammy + Mike Portraits - Chippewa Park

My previous session with Tammy and Mike took place over a year ago at the Tree Farm. This time around we chose the always beautiful Chippewa Park. It was great seeing both of them again. Part of the reason they wanted to do another session too, was to celebrate all the hard work they put in at losing weight. They looked great!

As with most of my sessions, it was very laid back. We walked, talked and took some photos along the way. I couldn’t have asked for a better way to spend some of my Sunday afternoon.
