When I met Laura & Mike for the first time, we just clicked. They have that old-soul kind of love that’s so easy to capture. Laura is beautiful inside & out and instantly reminded me of one of my best friends from college. She’s sassy, fun & quick to laugh. Mike has a rugged sweetness & Laura brings out the kid in him. When Laura called the morning of this shoot to ask about bringing their 4 dogs along, ( not gonna lie ) I freaked a little. I could tell it was important to her to have the whole ‘family’ in these images, but had never shot more than 2 pups at a time before. How the heck was I going to get FOUR dogs to sit..or not sit?! Turns out, we didn’t worry about them sitting or not sitting….we just went with it. And in all of its glorious chaos, I adore this session. At one point I looked through the lens to find a doggie tongue greeting me :)
Here’s a peek into the world of Laura & Mike….
