Lough Family | Fall 2010

Photo shoot took place on private property in Franklin, West Virginia

Loved this old time feel of the photo.

This was taken in front of an original building on the property probably circa early 1930's?

This darling girl was helping her little brother explore. So sweet.:)

This photo is one of my favorites. These two are beautiful. I'm happy with the darker hue I chose for the contrast it proved defining with the tree and facial features.

This shot was taken before this little boy even had his shoes on. Love candid.

There's always beauty in the unexpected.

This shot I thought was so precious.

It illuminates her and her sweet innocent curiousity:)

This darling girl was not one to pose for the camera, at this stage in her life. She has since come to love her photo being taken:) Regardless, she ran off from our shoot and started playing in the sand. I have so many shots from this moment that turned out so wonderfully, it was painstaking to choose just one. As I have mentioned I love photography that captures the natural state of things. She was simply playing, being herself and it turned out to be a sweet, beautiful picture!

Photo booth style for the below photo's because...I couldn't choose just one! ;) Absolutely adorable!

Separate day in the garden at grammy's house :) Running and running and running!

Momma and her boy, so precious...

Her eyes are the prettiest blue...this was an early photo shoot for me. I had the tendency to darken everything...I like a classic, nostalgic look. I have since learned to lighten my photos and adjust contrast and hue etc. Regardless, she's such a beautiful darling girl! :)

I love this family, dearly. They have been a part of my life for a few years and the mother of these two always supported and encouraged my photography venture. She is one of the most genuine and kind women I know and I'm honored to call her a friend. Special thanks to this family for their love, unending support and kindness to me in all circumstances. You have blessed my life. Thank you for reading friends, peace to you. Danielle
