The best compliment you can give your photographer is by referring your friends and family! That’s how I met the Collins family. The Collins go to church with the Anderson family who I’ve photographed for the last few years. During the Collins Manassas Battlefield Family Session, I found out that they used to live a few small towns away from my hometown! If you know anything about my hometown, you know that it is tiny!! So if you find anyone living in the DC area who is from Shenandoah County, you’re automatically friends if you’re not somehow related.
I had a cancellation a few days prior and it worked out perfectly that the Collins family happened to be available. Since it was such short notice, I didn’t have time to go over outfits with them nor did they have anytime to go shopping for coordinating outfits. When I arrived at the Manassas Battlefield, I saw this sweet family dressed so perfectly waiting for their family session. Seriously, their boys were the cutest!! I was so excited we were able to meet during the busy fall season. What a joy they were to photograph.
