A Heyworth Mason Park Fall Family Session Being the designated family photographer for a family, yea that’s the ultimate compliment and this family has graciously given me that title.

Family sessions grew on me last year, which took me completely by surprise. I referred to myself as a wedding photographer WAY more often than a family or lifestyle photographer.
