Feels Like Home | Columbus Family Photographer
October 1, 2009
The minute you walk in to Amy’s house, you feel instantly at home. It is just so warm and inviting and lovely. Just like her. She is one of those people that you just can’t help but smile when you are around her. Her positive energy is contagious. And did I mention the rest of her family is pretty darn amazing too?!
We started our session in the kitchen for some good old-fashioned baking fun. The kids had a blast sneaking bites of the batter, dipping their hands in flour and later frosting the cupcakes and their noses. Photos like these are ones I wish I had of my childhood. Just honest images of my family doing everyday activities together.

I love this one too. I can hear their laughter when I look at it. Most days I think we all wish we could bottle up those precious giggles and save them for a rainy day when our house is empty and a little too quiet. 
Gorgeous, inside and out. I’m telling you.

Vaughn is already a little heart-breaker.

And Lena, oh Lena. A little drama queen right after my own heart, this one was taken while she was doing her monkey impersonation. 
I think this one might be my favorite of the whole day. I can just feel the love. 
Amy and Billy, thank you for letting me spend the evening capturing your family. I hope every time you look at these pictures you will hear Lena laughing, and Vaughn squealing, and remember the days when their only worries were what stories you were going to read them before bed.
