Northern Virginia Photographer - Generations

We recently took a vacation away from the cold weather here in VA and traveled to my hometown of Fullerton, CA. I was looking forward to this trip for many reasons. I always love going home and seeing my old neighborhood, visiting with my dear friends that I left behind a long time ago and having Grandma there as a babysitter is a pretty good vacation bonus too! This trip I took some time out for a little work to do some sessions for my friends who I don't get to see as often as I would like. Here is the first of those sessions.

I was particularly looking forward to this "Generations" session because we agreed to do it at my High School. I went to a beautiful school that has graduated over 100 senior classes. It was built in a traditional Southern California Spanish style and has been kept up wonderfully over the years. I knew that the murals, arched walkways and big trees would be a lovely backdrop for these three ladies. Mom, Grandmere, a spunky little girl and I met there for our session and we had a great time.

Thanks for a lovely morning "W" ladies. It was so great seeing you in the old 'hood (do kids still say that?) We are looking forward to having you visit us on this coast.
