{Family} Greg, Feona, Jerod & Davis

I feel like I start all of my posts saying how much fun each session was, but it's true - I always have fun and this session was no exception. Greg is my best friend's brother, so growing up I spent a lot of time at their house and on holidays, meaning I got teased a lot by Greg and thrown in the lake a few times too while I would holiday with them in the Okanagan. Of course, we all got older and more mature (I think) and it's been great to see Feona join the family and then watch them adopt their two adorable boys. Oh, and I can't help but mention the beautiful flowers that Feona does, so be sure to check out Tudor Rose Flowers.

This was the first time I've had significantly different skin tones in one shot, so it was another learning experience for me, but what better time to learn than with these cuties? And despite the fact that Greg was apparently hoping for rain all morning so we would have to cancel our session, I think he did a pretty great job! I am so thankful that the rain held off and that the storm clouds made it into a few pictures. Thanks for meeting with me - I really enjoyed hanging out with you and watching your energetic boys run around.
