Maria & Family
Sup, everyone! Long time no see! It's been a while since I've done a blog post. My coworker and good friend, Maria finally got a free day for us to go do photos with her kids. We literally planned to do this since the summer and have both just not been able to do a shoot because of our lives being so hectic.
The day before the shoot, we confirmed where we wanted to go. The photos that I saw online made the locations look beautiful and a place that would be good for family photos. Well, that wasn't the case after we got there! We pulled up, looked around, and everything was brown, dead, and ugly. I had another location as a backup and we made our way to that spot. Literally the exact same thing. Everything was ugly, the park was extremely small, you could see the back of people's houses, fences. Just a pitiful park. Should it have even been called a park? Maria mentioned that she had a park where she used to do her morning runs that could work. We hopped back into the car and made our way to Rockwall, Texas. This park in comparison to the first two was perfect for what we needed. What really made this shoot so great was that it was almost 70 degrees! Perfect December weather if you ask me.
After the shoot, Maria's son wanted some Wendy's so we stopped and got him a 4 for 4 because he killed the shoot and had a great time! No better way to end a long afternoon of shooting than a pitstop for some food and a Wendy's frosty.
I'm always interesting in meeting more people in the DFW area so if any of my readers know anybody, send them on to me! I'd love to do more work with families and couples. I'd really like to do some lifestyle shoots with couples in an Airbnb or some really awesome location. So again, let me know if you all know some folks!
