Sweet Childhood Friend

The beautiful mother in these pictures is one of my oldest friends...seriously, I think I met her and her twin sister when I was about eight years old! We would often go on day trips to visit castles and beautiful parks together when both of our families lived in Germany. Oh, and I remember our moms would trade; her mom would teach me and my brother piano lessons, and my mom would teach the twins how to sew once a week--pretty awesome stuff, and such great memories.

Anyway, I was delighted when they made the trip up from UT to WA to visit their family up here and also have me photograph them. The only bummer of the evening was their photoshoot went by way too fast. We didn't get to hang out long enough! Such is life. :( There is never enough time!

But without further ado, I hope you guys love these pictures as much as I do:
















And PS. I can't believe so many photogenic people could be bundled up in one family. You are one good-lookin' bunch!

Hahaha!!!! I'm so giddy with excitement Marie! Thank You so much, they are just gorgeous! As always you capture things...moments, feelings, personalities, that no one else I know can. That is why it was worth it to me to have you take our pictures. I realy wish we could have spent more time with you. Until next time, I guess, right. <3
