Family sessions in the Smokies can be fun, even if the sun wants to play peek-a-boo behind clouds and other visitors are walking into shots. While it has those challenges, the key is a good attitude and the objective of having fun. Okay, and promising the kids food afterwards!

We hear the word “family” and immediately thing, “We belong . . .” This past autumn I photographed Megan and Craig’s extended family in the Smokies and got to meet some very fine people. Look at these faces! Trips to the Smokies with your family is the perfect time to do a family session and have something to cherish the notion of belonging to those who love you.

Fall is a welcome season and with it comes the fall family session. The lovely Cowen family joined me for a delightful session in the sun - check out their images and even some video and aerial photography!
