I first met Michaela a couple of years ago when she worked with my sister, and she is one of those people you just love immediately. She's kind and warm and genuine. I am definitely a fan.

So it just made sense that when I met the rest of her family a couple of weeks ago, they were all the exact same way. Spending the morning photographing them together was fun and light. Just the way it should be.

We spent the morning at Wash Park and baby girl Marlee stole the show from the very beginning. I think it's pretty clear in these photos how much everyone adores her. She is surrounded by such a loving family. What a lucky little girl!

Thank you so much Houghton family for spending your morning with me. I hope you will cherish these photos for years to come!
