This family is turning the page to start the next big chapter of their life, their oldest is going off to college. And, the weekend before he left, they got to take these photos, capturing a beginning and an end.

I got to take Jake’s senior photos last fall, which ended up being one of my favorite sessions. Then his mom was gifted with another session with me last Christmas. When I reached out to see when and where she wanted to use the session, she said she would love to do them right before Jake left for school. What a great way to freeze time!

We took the photos in their backyard, which meant we got to included the four legged family members as well. I always love when the dogs are involved, they are family after all!!! Plus, I love taking pictures at client’s homes, there is something so special and personal about it. To say the least I love how their images turned out, what a good looking bunch of people.

Thank you Lisa for letting me capture this special moment. I can’t begin to image the excitement you feel as you watch one of your children embark on this exciting journey. I hope you have all the proud momma vibes, because both your sons seem like such good and sweet boys. You and Ryan did something right with these two. XO, Kelly Harper
