A couple days ago I shared pictures from Jerri & Jacob’s beautiful outdoor wedding. Now I have the privilege of sharing some photos from earlier in the day.
I was stunned when about 10 days before her wedding, Jerri asked if I’d be willing to do a shoot for her sister. Before her wedding. Would I mind? I thought… would I mind? No, I wouldn’t mind, but would she mind? I thought if I was getting married, I might want to have my sister around to do important last minute tasks like bringing me champagne or creme brulee, or straightening my piles of bobby pins. But Jerri assured me that she didn’t mind a bit. Her sister, Shannon, had admired Jerri’s engagement photos, and wanted some pictures of her own family as she was just in Pittsburgh for a couple days for the wedding.
I first got to meet Shannon’s very handsome 3-year-old son, Will. He’s a happy guy.
Who loves to snuggle and smooch his mom.
Will didn’t hesitate, he climbed right up the ladder. Thank you, ladder, for having accents of green.
That’s Will’s dad, Bill, on the right. (He was the one in the wedding photos carrying gifts through the rain.)
Bill’s from Mississippi, and has a very charming Southern drawl.
The apple came right off a tree in the yard.
I’m not sure if Will knows this, but I’m pretty sure he’s signing “apple.”
Apple tossing!
Splashing well-dressed parents with water from the bird bath = fun!
Shannon, Bill and Will – thanks for coming early for your photo shoot! It was fun and an honor to photograph a faraway family. And Bill, thanks for braving the heat.
