The Jarvie Family
I’m obsessing over how good all of the photos from the Jarvie Family session were. I had such a tough time choosing my favorites! Claire suggested using the community area right near her and Will’s home which meant easy travel for the kids. The desert landscape and mountain backdrops were completely beautiful! We also chose to do a sunrise photo session which I think was a great fit for their kiddos. Sometimes, sunset sessions can be right in the middle of dinner or bed time, so scheduling a session for sunrise, although early, can be a great alternative option for happier little ones.
Vivian and her big brother Landon had the sweetest bond. She was always reaching to hold his hand and they were all smiles throughout the session. Landon was so charismatic- he was telling me all about his Paw Patrol Halloween costume, how to spell his name, and followed my directions perfectly! He also had fun chasing his sister and couldn’t wait to go to the playground when his session was over. These two could totally be Gap Kids models!
Will’s sisters and nephew were in town visiting from Rhode Island. They were such great helpers in the background making everyone smile and helping the kids giggle. We even had a chance to capture some extended family shots at the end as well. It’s such a small world, because Will and his sisters actually grew up just outside of my hometown of Buffalo, NY. I’m always amazed how many people I meet out in Arizona that have Buffalo connections.
Claire also did a great job of styling her family’s outfits. I love the neutral tones that she chose. Both her flowy navy dress and Vivian’s tulle skirt were so dreamy. Will’s light pink shirt perfectly picked up the pinks in Vivan’s sweater. I loved that she paid close attention to the small details like her gold belt, Landon’s navy suspenders, and Vivan’s cream colored bow.
To the Jarvie Family: Your session is truly one for the books! I am honored that I was able to capture such precious memories of your loving family. I hope that some of these photos will fill the walls of your home and bring you joy when you look back on these precious moments.
