This family has a special place in my heart because, well, it’s one of my brothers. He married one of my childhood friends and they’ve produced the cutest offspring to boot, so it’s pretty grand. 🙂

I’ll let you in on a secret – Jonathan (my brother and the Dad here) was about as bad as it get’s when it comes to pictures. He used to fuss and complain the whole time and question “are we done yet?” a dozen times. I could joke about it with him, cause once again he’s my brother. But something changed… he had kids and before his very own eyes they are growing at rapid speeds. This time around HE was the one asking for pictures, and making sure I got all the different groupings. It really touched my heart to see the transformation and I was reminded once again how important photos are. Jonathan is seeing that his kids are growing so fast and he doesn’t want to miss an opportunity to capture this sweet and fleeting season with them.

Also, isn’t this location in Bells Bend amazing? Despite the fact that you are only a few minutes drive from Nashville TN, you are surrounded by nature and the peace of the country. What a gem! Any other Nashville families want to have their fall family photo session at this location?! I’m all here for it!
