I first met and photographed Sarah & Chad for their Wedding a few years ago which is still one of my favorite Weddings I’ve had the opportunity to photograph.  I absolutely adore them and admire their family so much ~ they’re so unified and connected and I remember how great it felt to be around them at their reception at the Rabbit Room in Honeyoe Falls.  It was the perfect setting for this sweet and intimate group of people.

They moved shortly after their Wedding to another state where they were blessed with their first child Hannah.   When Sarah’s mom got in touch with me to photograph her parents 60th Wedding Anniversary, I was so excited because I would get to see their baby girl, Chad, and Sarah with a new baby on the way too ~ along with all the rest of the family!

This is one of the amazing things I love about photography – besides the craft itself, we are invited into the lives of families and then welcomed back for more milestone events to capture the heirlooms for them to pass down to generations.  It truly is an honor.

Sarah and Chad wanted to have their family portrait taken in the Fall, in the park.  When I first saw their new baby, I instantly teared up.  He was so beautiful, so small and precious.  It reminded me how fleeting time is too.  I had a baby this year, and now that she’s sitting up and crawling around, it’s so easy to forget how delicate they once were.  Thank GOODNESS for pictures to bring us back into that time of our lives.  I don’t ever want to forget those moments with my baby bundle, no one does.  I’m so happy to provide these beautiful pictures for Sarah and Chad to look back on for their lifetime together.

Congratulations on your beautiful happy family Sarah and Chad ~ SO happy for you guys!!
