Everything about this day was perfect. The weather, the location and, of course, the models! : )
Kaitlyn is making her Communion very soon and her mom had the idea to go to a garden for the portraits, which made me very happy. I always love photographing in a new location and this one is really beautiful. It is the Sayen Gardens in Trenton, NJ. It is a bit further than I normally travel, but it was well worth it. The grounds are very well kept and there is so much beautiful nature all around. A gem, indeed!
Kaitlyn; her younger brother, Patrick; their mom and I wandered around the garden stopping every few moments for portraits. There were just so many great vantage points Both Kaitlyn & Patrick did wonderful and were so patient with me the entire time.
First, here is the adorable Patrick….
And, of course, the Communion girl, Kaitlyn…
And here is one with their awesome mom. Seriously, she was so laid back and made the session so much fun. Towards the end, the kids broke out their sunglasses, danced in the dirt, threw flowers and even submerged their arms completely in water. She was fine with all of it! Thanks so much, Suzanne!!
And, what would one of my blogs be without animals, tree climbing or bugs? Kaitlyn & Patrick found a moth submerged in water. They rescued it and placed it on a bench to dry off. We thought maybe with a kiss it would turn into a prince. No such luck… maybe next time…. 😉
