When I photograph families that I have known for several years, this magical thing happens where I lasso what I love about them with my camera and mingle it with what I’m learning in the moment, being so up close and personal. I always leave feeling like I know them better, and love them more. This was the case with the beautiful Brocato family. The essence of their home was warm and easy, comfortable and close-knit, and getting to seal this season for them with a photo session was an honor.
