Nothing makes me happier than shooting outdoors. I love it. Doesn’t matter where I am, I feel at home.
Second to that, nothing makes me happier than shooting families that I really like. And I really like this one. There are a few reasons why. Obviously they are strikingly good looking. And they are very gracious and nice. But it is really special to me to photograph extended families — it’s one of my favorite things to do. And I feel so fortunate that I was able to photograph them twice, once with each set of grandparents. To have multi-generational photographs is absolutely priceless. Finally, I just love this mom. This winter, shortly after I left IBM, I drove through some really treacherous weather to get to her house. I got there two hours late and was really out of sorts. I was a little overwhelmed with life and wasn’t really sure everything was going to pull together like I had planned. When I arrived, she made me a latte and we ended up discussing life on a very philosophical level. And I learned so much in about 30 minutes that pretty much upgraded my entire level of thinking about why we are in this world and who we should strive to be. So that meeting was perfect timing in my life.
So with that mouthful out, here are the images from an absolutely wonderful second perfect timing event. Grandparents in town, everyone available, schedules coordinated, kids really happy and simply gorgeous weather!
Wow Kristina…these are amazing!!! What a beautiful family too!
Such a stunning family! These are gorgeous images. I completely agree with you about multi-generational photos. I had some taken about a year ago with my mom and grandma.
You know I love all your work but this is where you really SHINE! You are the queen of capturing connections- the family will treasure these forever. You are so gifted!
You never cease to amaze me with your talent.
Kristina: Love the few pictures that Sangita sent me. But, I feel you just threw some crumbs. When do I get the whole slice (or loaf)?! Thanks for the beautiful work with your camera.
