Before our session Saturday morning, Leslie said, "I'm scared that we're all going to look like dorks just sitting there in our pictures." In my mind, I thought, "Seriously? Because I think y'all are one of the most personable families I've met...you won't have a problem being natural in your photos." I tried not to build up the pressure before the shoot...the more natural I can act, the more comfortable my "subjects" (can anyone think of a better word? it sounds like I'm about to inflict pain on them when I use that word) will be.
So the Brown's photos ended up being really sweet and endearing, just like they are. Leslie, I haven't gone through all of them yet, but I wanted to post a few just to ease some fears...
*A special thank you to Jeff, who encouraged us all to brave our fears of bad weather and continue with the shoot, despite the ominous rain clouds looming above us. We had good light and free reign in Botanical Gardens-almost unheard of on a Saturday in April!!

Beautiful! Wow, I love that hands one! It looks like it should be in a magazine. Great, great, great!
Aww, Jessica you captured them perfectly! Jeff is so funny. Does he get upset about anything? Sometimes I think cloudy days make the best light. Very nice, friend!
Kim's right ... the hand picture should be published somewhere

WOW! These photos are wonderful..I love the picture of Leslie and Jeff..it actaully brought tears to my eyes. Because I can see the love they have for each other..
Where can we submit the hands picture? Seriously, that pic made me tear up. Beautiful. It says so much more than can be expressed in words.
I think these are the best you've ever done... and that's saying a lot seeing who you were taking pictures of... ;o)
