So I was in my home town last month. It's up in the beautiful pacific north west, and I try to take advantage of as much as I can while I'm there (we just don't have trees like this in Florida).

I love having them in front of my camera every time. Marissa (the mom) is one of the sweetest people I've ever met, and has such a good heart.

You can see other photos I've taken of this family here and here.  

I had such a fun time photographing this "trash the dress" session with April and Will. They both were so full of fun energy and we giggled a lot this morning.

So many moments like this.
