This was my first time working with James and Emily, their dog Frankie, and their adorable little daughter! They warned me that she might be slightly shy at first, and while she did take some convincing at first, by the end of the session she insisted on sitting on my lap and making me read to her, rendering me completely unable to do my job but happy to have gained the approval of yet another toddler. She also was quite enamored with my stuffed vampire cat keychain, who makes an appearance in most of the photos, much to my (and her) delight. Frankie, their dog, was a very good model, loyally barking at any dog that we came across in a way that suggested that he’s much bigger than he is, and he kept us all very safe. I clicked with this whole family immediately. We bonded over horror movies and our mutual love of Chapel Chill Ice Cream and Oscar Isaac. I’m so happy I got to photograph this special time in their lives for them, moving to a new city (welcome!) and enjoying the company of this spunky little dog and sweet little girl. Thank you, James and Emily!
