Family SEssion


While in Seattle...


I was so thankful to squeeze this family session in while I was in Seattle visiting my family this September! It was a typical Seattle day--overcast, wet ground, and mild temperature. After living on a tropical island for four years, Seattle's default weather suddenly seemed gloomier than it had been for the 25 years I was living there for. But after spending the morning with these three vibrant kids, my heart was so full. I love how special and different each siblings' relationship is with one another--it reminds me of me and my two older siblings. I love how their smiles go from ear-to-ear and are a huge contrast to the grey backdrop. I love how chill their parents were, allowing the kids to be themselves and run around to enjoy the park. Time passed by way too quickly!


Hopefully we'll get to hang out for more than an hour next time we're in the same city :) Can't wait to see how the kids have grown into their own personalities the next time!
