The Pape Family - Wigwam Resort

Last weekend I met up with the Pape family at The Wigwam Resort for some family photo fun! But before I show you the family pictures, let me tell you about this beautiful lady below!
Holly. I like to refer to her as my personal body guard at school! You see, girlfriend is my voice when I won't say something and she doesn't let people push me around. She is my Reading Apprenticeship partner in crime! Without her, I couldn't write a decent objective or essential question! She understands my "blueness" and loves anyway! I am so lucky to work with her, but even luckier to call her my friend!

It was so fun to take her family pictures this year!

Sydney, their daughter, is so beautiful! I snapped both of these pictures as she was trying to be silly and make her parents smile for their picture together! They are my two favorite pictures of Syd from our morning together, her smile is so genuine!




That door. I have a new theory about it! You know the book "The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants"? Well, I think that that door of the little church outside The Wigwam Resort is like the jeans of book! Everyone you put in front of it, no matter who it is or what they look like...the pictures turn out amazing and they always end up being favorites of clients (mine too of course, there is a reason that I love it)! I don't remember when I first shot it, but I know that it will continue to be a staple in shoots to come! LOVE IT and how the Pape family photos turned out in front of it!

I heart faces: silhouette


We discovered this secret tunnel while at the park for a picnic with the kids! They had a blast chasing each other that day and it was not with any park toy, just the simplicity of being underneath where the cars drove. It was perfect.
