I had so much fun shooting this last fall photo session! Christine and I met years and years ago while working a Christmas time wedding. She was on hair and I was on makeup. There we were, two loud mouth New Yorkers cracking jokes and making the bridal party laugh as if we knew each other for years. We were both dressed in all black, had long dark hair and had both moved from Long Island to the south. Needless to say, we stood out in the crowd amongst all the sweet soft southern accents that surrounded us. I remember everyone being pretty surprised to learn that we had never met before lol! Although we went on to do many weddings together over the years that followed, we have also forged a personal friendship that I truly cherish. She is one of the most positive, light hearted and silliest people you could ever meet! She is always smiling despite any hardship or rough road that she has encountered and somehow always has a ridiculous joke or picture to send at random! She is one tough cookie and a fellow kick ass entrepreneur! That said, I know that if I asked her what she is most proud of that her answer would be being Mr. Luke’s mommy!
It’s always beautiful to watch your friends grow in life and become parents. Little Luke is and always has been, such a special child and let me tell ya he loves his momma! And just like his mommy, Luke is super silly and cracks me up! He is 100% boy and LOVES all things cars! I’ve been taking his pictures since he was born and I’m always in awe at how much the camera loves him! I was a little afraid that we would never top the sessions we did with antique trains and at an old school gas station, but I’m thinking these most recent ones at the skate park may give those a run for their money!
Check out my little friend…
