Breaking the Rules | Skagit County Family Photographer
February 22, 2010Typically, February is not family session season. But I had to say yes to this session for many reasons. First, we have had the most gorgeous weather – higher than normal temperatures, dry days and plenty of sun. And second, this family is visiting here all the way from Finland! Amy grew up here and has been visiting since the holidays. When she first contacted me, I had my doubts we would be able to make it happen since winter here is usually wet, wet, wet. But I am so glad it worked out. Warm sun, a beautiful field and a gorgeous, fun family. It was truly a joy to photograph you guys and such a pleasure to meet you Miikka. And I even know how to sound like a cow in Finnish now!
Could this family be any cuter?
Enjoy the rest of your stay and have a safe trip home. I will be in touch with you soon. xoxo
