happy {early} turkey day

Happy Thanksgiving!

A couple weeks ago, I had the privilege to photograph a family dear to my heart. The oldest grandchild, cousin, etc., Maddie, is one of my very best friends & has been for about 6 years now. Her friendship & sisterly love has always been an inspiration to me.

 The second oldest, Brandon, was headed to Basic Training the day after we took these pictures. So it was a sweet, intimate thanksgiving gathering...I was very honored to be a part of it. 

Enjoy! 

 Entire family + Legend. ((the dog; isn't that an awesome name?!))

Where it all started...

and continued..((the sisters are twins!)) 

and is still continuing throughout these three families...

favorite!  

They are SO in love..too precious!

We had a tough time with the shadows...but we eventually made it alright.

So sweet!
