As an adoptive mom myself, I love doing these sessions.  If you are not familiar yet, I’ll explain.  Once a month, I will donate a session to a family who has adopted a child within the past 12 months.  This is Gary and Melanie’s family.  Gary, Melanie, Connor and Camryn welcomed Chloe into their family just about a year ago.  She has had to adjust to a new family, new culture and new language!  By God’s amazing grace, she is doing it very, very well!  This family is just awesome!  I really enjoyed our afternoon out shooting!

So, because I had so many that I liked, you better sit back with a cozy blanket and some hot cocoa or a cup o’ joe, ’cause this one’s going to take a while!  :)

Enjoy the pictures!

  • What an adorable family!! I love that you are devoting your time to adoptive families.

    I would love to suggest my Sister’s family if you are in need of a family in the near future. My Sister and brother in law have a 7 year old little girl, and after years of trying to conceive baby #2 they decided to adopt. They recently adopted the most precious (okay, i might be a little biased) baby boy whom is now nearly 6 months old. Shortly after their sons birth/adoption they found out they were pregnant with baby #3 who is due in July. :) I can only imagine what a fun shoot it would be with a 7 year old, a toddler, and a newborn. haha! If your intrested and would like more information please email me!!
    Love your photos!
