Is there anything better than spending the long summer evenings having fun in your own backyard?!  Liam just celebrated his 8th birthday, and I love our annual tradition of having a family session to celebrate!  The Stanton family just moved last year, and their new home is tucked away in the woods with tons to explore!  I’m pretty sure my new favorite thing to include in backyard home sessions is a TRAMPOLINE!  I don’t think it’s possible to jump on a trampoline without smiling and laughing your head off!  Liam has some pretty sweet tricks on that thing.  Erica and Kenny are so laid back and easy-going, and it’s always a blast getting to spend time with them.  This year we also included their family pup Hexie!  This little peanut is Liam’s best bud, she followed him everywhere he went.

Enjoy this sunshine-filled backyard session, and be sure to scroll to the very end to see our grand finale to this summer shoot!!

Hexie and her Mama!  Look at her 4th of July bandana!

Erica and Kenny have been married for 10 years this year!

Adventurers, heading into the woods.

Cannonball!!!
