Steinberg – Funt Family Reunion {Summer 2015} | Portraits

Sep
2015

Driving up to Lake Lure, North Carolina, I was trying to remember when I last saw the Steinberg family. And I realized that it must have been when I took pictures at Brian’s Bar Mitzvah…TEN years ago! My goodness time flies!! When I walked up to Brian, he extended his hand to shake and say hello. I was like “I need a hug from you after all this time!”. haha. It was really awesome to see everyone again. But in addition to Marla, Hank and their three kids, I was introduced to the Funt Family as well as Brian’s girlfriend. Trying to quickly remember everyone’s names made for a few funny moments…especially when I managed to blend two names into one.

Lake Lure is absolutely gorgeous and so is this beautiful growing family!! Thank you everyone for a great afternoon.

Thank you for stopping by!

Reid & Layton {Sisters – Summer 2015} | Portraits

Sep
2015

Summer is such a fun time for late afternoon sessions, but it is also time for those reoccurring afternoon showers. So it is not uncommon to have to reschedule a session due to rain, but it is rather uncommon to have to reschedule multiple times! On one the reschedule days, I met up with Layton and her mom. Layton and I walked around downtown and stopped at various locations to take pictures until Reid was able to join us and continue with the session. Just when we thought we were in the clear, raindrops started to fall…and then a LOT of them. Eventually it was more than just a light shower. Layton and I took cover under an overhang and chatted for a long time. After about 40 minutes, we figured the session just wasn’t going to happen. We met early the following morning to continue and we had the entire downtown to ourselves which was a lot of fun! I am sure the girls didn’t want to get up really early, but it worked out awesome and I am excited to share their photos.

Thank you Reid & Layton for a fun day…or days…or parts of days…haha!!! I truly appreciate you being so patient while the weather was quite unpredictable. I hope you two have a fabulous school year.
