'Cause tonight I'm gonna see my ma cher amio.
Pick guitar, fill fruit jar and be gay-o
Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou."
Thank you, Hank Williams. You always know just what to say.
Every time I drive into Bayou Liberty I sing this song in my head. This particular location is what I would describe as "So Louisiana." For example: I met the R Family and while we were getting set up, we watched as a fisherman hopped out of her truck just as the rain stopped, and with her cast net and fishing pole, plucked a few perch and a few bait fish from the water. And just as fast as she was there, she was gone again. So Louisiana. We waited for the last of the rain to finish falling, and got settled on the docks and piers for some truly stunning shots. Rain clouds still in the sky, silhouettes of Spanish moss hanging from the cypress trees in the background, we got our shots. Since we waited for the rain to stop, and we were losing light so rapidly, we decided this would be just a "mini-shoot" and would reschedule the other half for another day. Heidi, her fabulous husband and gorgeous boys were perfect models. The older boy is a little comedian, and you can tell how much he loves his mommy and daddy. The little man is about as adorable as they get. Its so refreshing to see a couple so in love and that adore their little ones so much. Can't wait to get some more shots of such a beautiful family.
Enjoy!
Thanks to the R Family for asking me to take their portraits. I can't wait to do the other half of our session!
