A Backyard Pond Session | Folsom Family Photographer

“Though we travel the world over to find the beautiful, we must carry it with us or we find it not .”

– Ralph Waldo Emerson

I love when clients have a particular location or two in mind, especially if it is somewhere meaningful or in their own backyard! This sweet family wanted pictures around their community backyard pond and I definitely didn’t say no to that! It was beautiful and full of Fall vibes. Seriously, it was so dreamy.

Their darling daughter stole my heart and it isn’t hard to see why! She was full of life and happiness and personality and so incredibly emotive. We played and ran around and just had fun spending an evening together. It is the simple things that create beautiful memories for us to hold onto. Sure, we will remember the once-in-a-lifetime events, but family memories are born from day to day things and children hold onto how they feel and how they are treated. Pictures have a way of bringing those feelings and often other senses back to life. What a gift to have for the whole family. A gift that only grows in worth over time.
