[Vander Wal Kids]

This shoot was so special for me. The little one's mom, Renee, and I met in college. Her a freshman, me a junior. You can't help but love Renee. Her gentle spirit and kind humility makes people drawn to her. It's the same way with her kids.

It was such a surreal moment for me one of the days that we stayed with this family, to be watching my two kids and her two kids playing. Like, the epitomized moment when I realized that we were grown ups and we had kids. And I got to photograph her kids.

What started out as what may have seemed a disaster of a morning turned into several awesome frames. We showed up at the park only to be greeted by about 1,000 walkers, walking for a cause. Everywhere you looked there were people with fluorescent colored t-shirts and spandex pants. The two little busy bodies were too busy to stay in a frame together but we were able to capture some great individual shots of them (and some spandex-panted walkers too)! Enjoy!
