Laura + Eric

Oh how this family is so dear to my heart! I've been photographing them at least since #3 was surprisingly in the oven. And oh, the ride they've been on with sweet Catherine. Last year's session, Catherine didn't say a word to me, hardly made eye contact and barely cracked a smile. Fast forward to this session and her transformation through a lot of hard work, patience and perseverance rewarded me with High 5's, smiles galore and I was even bestowed full sentence conversations. What a darling, fiesty and fun little lady! 

Because of their need to be near family, Laura & Eric find themselves preparing to move. Eric will be reinventing his construction business in the Quad Cities (if you need a contractor, I am happy to give you their contact information!) and Laura has found a choral directing position. For their family's reinvention/overhaul, we did individual portraits of not just the children, but Laura & Eric too. Enjoy their sweet family!!

While the kids took a break, we got a few of just Laura & Eric and low and behold, the kids eventually wanted to join the party. ;) 

Laura + Eric: As you embark on this new season of your lives, I hope these photos make it onto your new home's walls! I know that together, you two can make anything work. Your family is a beautiful one and I'm honored for the opportunity to photograph you as you step out into the unknown and blaze a new trail. I know our paths will continue to cross and I'm so excited to watch your family grow and change in great ways! 

Blessings in EVERYTHING, 

Carrie
