This is Mr. and Mrs. Street....
Together, they raised my friend from jr. high, Cora, and her older brother, Joe. Cora and I have kept in touch over the years through myspace. She recently messaged me and asked if I was available to take some family portraits...a gift for her mother's birthday. I was delighted, to say the least. Nothing means more than people from my past acknowledging who I've become. It's one of the greatest compliments ever.
Anyway, here's a shot of Cora, her brother and the parents...
They're a great looking family, right?! I think they were taken aback when I started the session by asking them to not be so posed :) They are used to studio portraits and my style is more of a relaxed, fun, candid style that captures the individual essence of the family I'm shooting. They caught right on and I think the portraits turned out awesome! Although. I must say Cora's husband can be a little "too relaxed" in front of the camera! haha He's a ham! Check these out...
He has a GREAT personality! Hilarious!
And here is the final family portrait...
Thanks Cora!!! I had so much fun and can't wait to do it again! Maybe Christmas cards? ;)
