What could I possibly say about this family that I haven’t already said before?  They are among my most special and loyal clients and have been with me since the beginning. It’s hard not to feel attached when the girls won’t let me leave without, “One more hug, Miss Kami!”

I think I got enough hugs that day to last me a lifetime.  🙂

At our in-person viewing session, I revealed the photos in a slideshow set to music as I always do.  I had not used this song before, but I heard it recently and it touched a nerve. 4 soaked tissues later and I’m pretty sure Taylor Swift’s “Never Grow Up” set to these images was the perfect choice.  An emotional client is the ultimate compliment for me.

“To you everything’s funny, you got nothing to regret
I’d give all I have, honey
If you could stay like that

Oh darling, don’t you ever grow up
Don’t you ever grow up, just stay this little
Oh darling, don’t you ever grow up
Don’t you ever grow up, it could stay this simple
I won’t let nobody hurt you, won’t let no one break your heart
And no one will desert you
Just try to never grow up”

How many parents can relate?  While we all know it is impossible to freeze real time, I am certainly grateful we can freeze it through our photographs.
