Some families just become part of your world when you do this long enough. I’ve been photographing this crew for years now — long before Knox was big enough to sprint through the house with Buzz Lightyear in hand — and every time I spend time with them it feels less like “a session” and…
Some photo sessions feel more like hanging out than being photographed, and this Lake Whatcom session was exactly that. This was my second time working with this family, which always makes things feel extra easy from the start.
