the callen family

It’s most definitely fall, and I’ve been having so much fun with the flood of families I get to photograph this time of year. This crew is something special, and I am grateful for this peek into their unique, beautiful family.

Hey there, Cora! Could you possibly squeeze more joy from a smile than this? This girl is super spunky, hilarious, SO sweet, and loves to be silly. She’s also quite the model! I absolutely love it when kids around this age time their tooth loss perfectly for photos. Well done, Cora! 🙂

Families just don’t get any cuter than this. Mike and Cherise are cute all on their own, too.

This is Owen! There is no sweeter boy on the planet. Owen’s smile is perfect sunshine, and he loves to be close to his mom and dad. He can be found perched like this on one of their shoulders much of the time.

Every time Mike or Cherise looks at their kids, their faces are just filled up with love. Cora and Owen can’t possibly have any doubt how deeply cared for they are.

I love the 50/50 split of silly and sweet in these cute kids! Check out those crossed eyes!

Callen family, you are golden. Thank you so much for being so dang much fun to photograph, and for being dear friends as well. Much love, friends!
