What an amazing trip/shoot this was! A refreshing-inspiring-having-fun-with-friends-and-quiet-moments-with-God kind of trip.

I’ve been photographing the Keach family for years and they have become great friends. First I shot Brandon and Kristen’s wedding in 2009 and then everything after! Now they have two adorable kids and it’s so wonderful to see their sweet family grow. They are salt of the earth people.

Kristen has been going to to this amazing camp like magical place called Montecito Lodge in Sequoia since she was little. Now her and Brandon go every year and made their own tradition. They thought it would be the perfect place to document their family since it’s so special to them. And it was. There’s something about being in the Sequoias that makes you feel peace and closer to God. (At least it did for me.) I am so thankful we were able to make the time to go and shoot and spend quality time with them. I will hold this trip in my heart for a long time and I can only hope they feel as blessed as I do.

Love you Keach family. I hope we made your Sequoia photo dreams come true!

These are just too sweet. I adore the way Hope put her hand on Kristen’s face.

We did a little shoot of the whole Sequoia crew, Brandon’s fam.
