Today is just the perfect day to work on favorites of 2024 with beautiful snow laying on the ground on this gorgeous January day! This past year was a very unusually hot summer, quite a windy spring, yet a very mild and beautiful fall. With the drought we had in the summer, we definitely thought the fall wouldn't be colorful.

He had his silly momen...

The Kapoor family was so much fun to take photos of. When you have a 5 year old, energetic boy - you have to bet there will be lots of opportunities for some fun shots. Not only that, but he really wanted to take some pictures himself AND see the ones we took of him. What a perfect fall family session! This is the photos that we took together.
