Inevitably, no matter how much we prepare for annual family photos ahead of time, life finds a way to throw a wrench in our plans. This mama of three would have never suspected that just as they were headed out the door to the session, the interior painter would be applying a fresh coat, and lo and behold her son would lean up against that wall with his sharp looking button-down. On the same token, life sometimes throws us a bone, too. I had a last-minute cancellation, giving some wiggle room to our schedule. The Davis clan made it just in time.

Our Swann Park Session with the Davis Family

Looking at these beautiful, joy-filled photos, you’d never guess they had such a debacle. Patricia and her three gorgeous (and almost grown!) kiddos were all smiles and laughs for this session at Swann Park in Tampa, FL. The sun was shining through the old moss-covered trees—everything looked so picturesque! These four are so special to me, and I look forward to taking their photos each year.

I love having regular clients, and I’d like to think the love is mutual. Here’s a sweet note from Patricia about their session:

“Thank you for always capturing the best moments with the kids!! This will be a forever tradition!! I know one day you will take these three kids’ graduation pictures, wedding pictures and newborn pictures with their kids! Thank YOU!”

It would be my absolute pleasure to keep taking photos for you, Davis Family! You are a special group, and I enjoy every minute with you! Happiest of holidays and can’t wait until next time! ☺
