S’mores, pool and a giant slide | fun time at a Mahwah family session

If I am being honest, I think I lost track of how many times I’ve had the pleasure of photographing this Mahwah family. We first did a family photo session before little brother was even born – and how he is in the 4th grade – how crazy is that?!!!! I am indeed a lucky gal to be invited to photograph this family year after year after year and watch these kids grow. Big sister E was just a toddler when we first met and now she is in high school and we are talking about colleges – it’s odd and pretty awesome at the same time:)

We’ve done family sessions at their home in Bergen County almost every year and yet each session is so different from the one prior. I always ask my family photo sessions clients what they like to do as a family because that’s the stuff I want to incorporate into their family sessions and capture. These guys spend a lot of time in the backyard in the summer – making s’mores, enjoying a glass of wine and hanging out by the pool. So after we got our mandatory ‘portraits’ out of the way that’s exactly what we did – and as you can see from these photos – fun was had by all! After all, who would not love diving into the pool and going down a GIANT slide at their photo session?? I told you – family photo session with me are nothing if not fun:)
