What to Wear Fridays

During this time of year one of the most frequented questions I get from my clients is always in regards to what to wear to their family portrait session. For years and years the whole family would wear jeans and a white button down shirt for their family portrait. That was so 1985! Fast forward…

    We just LOVED this mini photo session…it was so much fun! Amber your work is just simply amazing! You capture the essence of the people you photograph in a very special way.
