Power Play

I know I know the title is a bit cheesy but I couldn't help it! It isn't every day that you meet a professional hockey player! So me being the nerd that I am had to have a little play on words with their last name.

They first contacted me while they were moving from Italy back to the Unites States. Debbie was so excited to have her precious two month old photographed and quick before she grew anymore! They are only this little for such a short time. I was so happy to hear they were up for anything. I love photographing outdoors. There is something about all that fresh air and natural lighting that ads that something special to each photo.

It was a perfect and beautiful day at Floyd Lamb. I guess I left out the fact that it is peacock mating season :/ hahahahhaahh At least it made for an entertaining day. No, no that isn't a dying cat. That is a peacock noise.

Anyway, the Power's came with lots of ideas and patience. I think we were successful in capturing almost everything they were looking for. Sometimes it can be tricky when the baby isn't fully asleep but baby Nico just wanted to observe and be a part of it all. I don't blame her one bit! I was happy to capture her blue eyes. I mean she was such a sport! She even let daddy hold her in his stinky hockey gloves!

Overall we had fun, got the shots we wanted, had an amazing child wrangler/stylist known as Debbie's sister. (Thank you by the way for all the wonderful help) This family was so genuine and loving and seriously beautiful. Oh... and how could I forget their dog!! Was he even real? I think I came to the conclusion that he was battery operated since he never made noise let alone moved much. AWESOME! LOL

Here are some memories from our day of shooting with the Power family. I can't wait to do more in the future :)
