The Cacuyog Family!

My goodness! Aren’t they SO grown up? Where does the time go? I’ve been photographing this family on and off for YEARS! When we first met, our children were so small! Antonio was a skinny little guy, Mary Rose and Nana were two-ish, Brady and J.C. were 5ish… and that was all the kids I had at the time! Tamara first knew me as a frazzled mother of two. Now, I’m a crazy mother of 5. 🙂 I used to drive Nana to preschool when Tamara worked in the boys classrooms . Mary Rose and Nana would talk and talk in the back of my van. I had no idea what they were saying, but they would just chat away! I wish I had those conversations recorded. And then Nana would sing! OH MY! It was wonderful! I’m pretty sure she knew all the words to Gwen Staffani’s, Hollaback Girl and would SING it loud and proud!

Honestly, I was a tad nervous. The day was lovely, and I love shooting in the fall! You never know about the light and sessions are full of hunting perfect, warm and magical light.

I had not see the kids in a while and they have grown up so much… I soon realized they were the same goofs only bigger.

Only the same tricks to get them to smile didn’t work. 😉
