TORQUAY FAMILY SESSION

To say I was a little bit scared about the prospect of shooting Jodie’s family session is possibly an understatement. Clearly, as you’ll see below, she’s not a scary person. She is, rather, quite the opposite, and a rather talented photographer to boot (go check her out). Hence the butterflies and nervous anticipation as it came time to capture the moments and emotions that thread their way through this beautiful family, tying them together to tell the story of who they are at this point in their lives.  Hindsight is an amazing thing though, and I can say now that I needn’t have worried.
I jokingly mentioned a day or two after their shoot, on an instagram post, that these were the kind of people I’d love to live next door to – even if it meant moving to Warrnambool.  Poor location jokes aside (I LOVE Warranmbool!), these guys would make great neighbours, and the best of friends, wherever their adventures had them. I might just want a heads-up next time they move, so I can tag along as they house-hunt. Please make it somewhere warm and exotic though guys.
Seriously though, these people right here are the best. Warm and open, welcoming and full of wide-open love. There’s not much they hold back, from each other and those lucky enough to be surrounding them. What a wonderful thing it was to be able to spend this time with them and to feel who they are as well as see it. Hopefully that translated in to the images below.

Thanks for the best of afternoons, guys. And, because there are a thousand words I can’t think of that might explain how wonderful and genuine and sweet you all are, thank you for that too. Thanks for allowing me to see you, your hearts, and the love you have for all that’s around you. And thank you for allowing me to capture it.

Did I say thanks yet?
