Rachel and her boys :: San Antonio, Tx :: Family portraits

This momma is preparing to deploy later this year and wanted some memorable pictures with her boys before she leaves. I was honored to be the one to photograph her beautiful family! She actually has THREE boys, but unfortunately, one was unable to join us as he is away at school. :( However, we made the best of it and had a lot of fun! Really, when a two-year-old is involved, not having fun isn’t an option! Watching these two boys together was delightful. They are so sweet and it is obvious there is a strong bond between them. Also, as you can see, grandpa tagged along, and though he is camera-shy, we were able to talk him into joining the family for a few pictures. As it turns out, he is SUPER photogenic! It is just wrong for him to avoid the camera. :)

One other note: They wanted ALL black and white photographs!!! I can’t tell you how much that made my heart sing. Don’t get me wrong, I do love color images as well, but there is something about black and white photos that I love even more. They are classic, nostalgic, raw, and simply beautiful. I was only too happy to process every last one of this families images in black and white. :)

A few of my favorites….
