The Wagstaff Family Photos

A couple of years ago I had the chance to photograph the wedding of some pretty awesome people (Shout out to Michael and Malinda!), and while I was there I met these amazing people. Granted, they didn’t have their little one there yet, but this beautiful family of four stood out to me. I was able to take a photo of them at the wedding, and I didn’t hear from them for a couple of years until last year when Allison reached out to me to do their family photos. I love how they turned out, and so when they asked me to do it again, it was a huge compliment. So today I get to share some of my favorites from our recent family shoot together!

Sometimes I think I sound like a broken record, but the problem is it’s true every year. Every year someone who hired me last year, and hires me again to take photos of their family is something that truly honors me, something I see as one of the biggest compliments. You see, people’s families are a central part of who they are, and for many, it is the single more important thing to them in the world. So to. be told “I want you to photograph my family” is such an incredible honor.

The first time I ever met this incredible family of four was the day we did their photos. And while we didn’t get to spend that much time together, it was clear pretty quickly that we had a bunch of things in common (even down to our college, which is very small!) There was no doubt in my mind that I really liked this family, and my only regret in walking away was that we couldn't have spent more time getting to know each other. That said, I am super excited that I get to share their family photos here, and I hope you love them!
