I told you guys this weekend was a winner!  Not only did I get to celebrate with 31 Quades on Saturday, but I headed down the road and met with one of my favorite families in the county.  I’ve known this family for what seems like…forever.  I’ve been friends with Sarah and Aaron since middle/high school days and Ive documented both Ashton and Aarons weddings.  Sadly, Amber and Stevie were already married before I stepped into the game so they don’t count 😉 haha.   So I may be slightly biased but they are one of my favorites and we captured some of my favorite images this year.   Would you know that we took these in Ambers backyard? Right?  The light is gorgeous there and its convenient for all of us so never doubt your backyard you guys!  Im still waiting for someone to let me take their photos at a junk yard because junk can be beautiful too! 😉

As with all of my larger groups, We started big and then I broke these guys up into their little families and gave them each a little lime light.   I mean are these guys adorable together or what?  I just captured the cuteness you guys, with some words of encouragement to get the love going.  Who doesn’t love a little mid day cuddle anyways?  Hayden is still my favorite little dude ever and his bros are getting bigger and more handsome every day.  And I hear Cam is a killer go-kart racer too!  The entire family is talented and Im just happy they still like having me around every once and a while. So while you guys are all hunkered inside staying warm during this last little glimpse of winter,  enjoy some of my many favorites of these guys.  This girl is going to enjoy some snow while she can.

Im Candace, your good vibe, plant lover, extraordinaire!

My approach is all about having fun and making people do weird things - which are actually super adorable on camera. I'm your girl if you want to feel extra comfy in front of the camera and have a good time while doing it.
