Magical Summer Portraits

There's a time during the summer months just before sunset when the light gets all glowy and soft that I LOVE...like love love love for portraits.  It looks like the gushy, warm feeling of falling in love and is my favorite for families.  Check out my friends Katie and MJ with baby J.  They are gorgeous and funny and I love the way baby J is looking at his mama.  All the heart eye emojis!

It was a balmy 93 degrees and HUMID, but these guys were the best sports and even baby J hung in there for an hour so we could capture his cuteness and this young family's love for each other.  I'm so glad they have these portraits to remember this time when J is small and so squish-able.
