Winter Family Photos

Whose woods these are I think I know.
His house is in the village though;
He will not see me stopping here
To watch his woods fill up with snow.

(Robert Frost – Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening)

My session on Saturday was amazing.  Alex and I arrived early and walked the path as the snow fell.  It triggered a memory from my elementary school days of Robert Frost’s poem.  He must have experienced a perfect day just like Saturday. The snow falling gently and so peaceful that I swear you could hear the softness of the snowflakes landing in the snow.  Extraordinary and I cannot tell you how glad I was.  This amazing family had been rescheduled 3 times.  I know we have had a “light” winter.  But we have had storms and every single one of them landed on the day that I had this family scheduled.  How amazing that we lucked out with the Best Day ever for Winter Family photos!! :)

Winter Family Portraits are special and are my favourite.  I love the texture, colour and can rarely resist throwing a snowball or two ;)  (yes that goes back to having two brothers to toboggan off the roof of the pig barn with – I DO INDEED know how to embrace winter :)

Anyways – back to this beautiful family.  They so obviously enjoy one another’s company it was wonderful be around that love.  I loved watching the Grandpa’s laugh with one another.  It really was a good time for me – and from the photos I think it was for them as well.

Here is just a small sample Carolyn, hope you love them.  I will have your gallery ready in a couple of days. :)
