The Majsterek family in the Yakima River Canyon

Tavis and I have known these guys for about four years. We did their winter engagement session, summer wedding (at their home in Ellensburg) and now this family session. What a treat! I've always felt a natural friendship with them that makes it so we can stand around and just chat and chat. And chat some more. And what do you know, now we have little babes three months apart! We brought Lincoln to the session too so the baby friends could meet :)

Let me tell you all the reasons I love this family. Nick and Madeline are like a natural extension of each other. They talk and treat each other with such care, understanding and love that it creates a natural romance and friendship. Witnessing their marriage was one blessing to me and now seeing them as parents is just icing on the cake! Even during our brief time with them during the session I loved seeing them bend over backwards to make their daughter happy... And they themselves lit up and laughed with joy when she was happy. Awesome parents!! 

And then there's Vivienne... A pure delight. Being so close in age to my own son I studied her every feature. Beautiful brown eyes, brown hair with a little curl and a hint of olive skin. Pretty much the opposite of Lincoln! Her favorite thing seemed to be 1) the bug spray (holding it) and 2) her owl puppet from Ikea. I'm glad we could incorporate one of her favorite things into the session! 

Hands down my absolute favorite part about my job is hanging out with brides, grooms and families. I am happy to have photographed this family this year and continue to tell the story of their family legacy. Thank you Majstereks!!

Lincoln got to come again too! Vivienne let him ride with her in her wagon.
