There are so many reasons why I love my job as a photographer. One of those reasons? The opportunity to work with people that I hold close to my heart. I have so many memories with the Nusbaum family. I can't describe how blessed I feel to be able to capture even more memories with them that they will be able to cherish for years to come. I'll always have the recollection of our time spent together, but there's no better way to preserve a memory than a photograph that will last a lifetime. This, my friends, is why I do what I do.

I've been on countless coffee dates with Elizabeth and Abby. As the younger two of the trio of gorgeous sisters, they were my students when they were in high school. It's so much fun for me to see how they have grown and the awesome ladies they are turning out to be! I am beyond joyful that Lydia, their older sister, was willing to jump behind the camera for me so I could have a few photos with my girls (and hello baby bump)!

Their dad, Mark, was such an entertainment, keeping us on our toes throughout the whole session. Just like any dad should be, he kept the dad jokes coming and I don't think any of us stopped laughing! The more the merrier, their sweet Aunt Suzanne was able to join the family pictures, too. And can we take a moment to admire how cute Elizabeth and her boyfriend, Connor are? Swooning! I don't think anyone can deny the love this family has for each other and it shines through these photographs.

Thank you so much, Nusbaum Family, for allowing me to capture these special moments in beautiful Adriatica, not only for you, but for myself as well. I am truly grateful to have you in my life and I treasure your friendship.
