Lately I’ve been wanting to get back to my roots, from a time before I had a studio space in my basement, and I actually had to leave my house to work! Don’t get me wrong, I love being able to work in my PJs some days, but visiting a family in their own home and documenting their natural interactions, seeing the kids interests and personalities, it can be such a more intimate and meaningful experience. In-home family lifestyle sessions are my new obsession!

The Reinson family picked a few activities that they enjoy doing together – make your own pizza, a family puzzle, and reading a new book together. I also snuck up to the kids room despite mom’s cries of “Noooooo, they aren’t clean!” To which I replied, “Perfect!” ;)

I always end up with way too many images from these sessions, so here’s a slideshow with some of my faves.
