Katie and her animated pet provided me many playful moments of candidness as we took our photo parade to her backyard and neighbors barn. The second child of three, her easygoing and playful spirit quickly surfaced during this session. She has a casualness about her that makes you immediately comfortable.

There was no way to capture each one but I'm grateful for the opportunity to highlight a few of her favorites.

I love the unexpected and Madi, you certainly are that!

Caitlin is a quiet whirlwind of energy and creativity. Just like the rest of her family she specializes in gracefully juggling 20 different things at a time and doing it with ease that seems at times surreal. Clearly I'm envious.
