Sutton Family | Williamsburg Family Session

It has definitely been a minute since I put up a new blog post but we have had quite a busy few weeks around here!  We moved all our belongings out of our home, into an enclosed trailer & a shed, took all 6 of us (4 of us plus 2 puppies) to stay at my parents for a few days, then closed on our new home!  Oh, then we moved into our new house!  July was filled with packing and August is filled with unpacking, organizing, and adjusting.  I haven’t been able to share any sessions like I usually do but things are gradually getting back to normal!

Just days before we closed on our house, I got to go to Williamsburg for a family session!  I met the Sutton Family down by Colonial Williamsburg, where it is just gorgeous!!  The last time I saw this family was in January for Charlotte’s newborn photos.  I can’t believe it has already been 6 months or that the last time I saw Charlotte, we were able to fit her in a ham bag!  {You can see that session here.} She has already grown so much and is such a beauty!  

We started the session at a beautiful little garden!  The sun was shining just perfectly during sunset.  Stephanie had said important that pretty golden light was and we really wanted to wait for a night that it would happen.  After what felt like WEEKS of rain, we were so thankful to get a glowy sunset for the session.  

Sawyer was such a cutie pie that night, too!  He let me dance with him, held my hand walking down the street, and even tried to pose ME in one of their family pictures.  What a sweet heart!  Sawyer loved being able to move around for these photos which is KEY for little kids.  No parent should expect their toddler to sit still for photos for more than…..30 seconds…and sometimes that is pushing it.  

Trust me, I get it!  I have kids, too!  Which is why I love movement photos!  I love the pictures of families walking together or tickling each other, or laughing together!  You do whatever you have to do to keep your kids attention and keep them smiling!  The Sutton’s know that and were totally laid back with their session so that they could let Sawyer enjoy himself!  And he did!  Especially when we danced to the Paw Patrol song! 

We walked around, stopping at any spots we thought looked great, and got such gorgeous shots!  I am excited for y’all to see these!!

Don’t be surprised if I take my family to this exact location and get a photo exactly like this with my kids because I’m OBSESSED!!!!  Or I will just hang one of Steph & Charlotte in my own house.
