A few months ago my church hosted a silent auction to raise money for our new building, and I donated a photo session into the mix. The Arandas were the highest bidders, and we met last week at Hudson Gardens to take their family photos, specifically 6th month photos for their little guy Marcus.

I loved chatting with Allison, walking around the gardens, laughing at their adorable little girl Beatrice, and watching all the love that is more than obvious between them. I feel so lucky to meet and photograph such awesome families.

Thank you Arandas for such a lovely evening. I'm glad the rain held out and we could capture this time in your lives. What a wonderful family you have. Marcus and Beatrice are so very lucky.
