Front Porch Sessions for the NWA Food Bank | Part Two of the Happiest Photographs in Fayetteville

Oh heyyy! This year is crazy.

But you know what I love about the crazy? The love in the smack dab center of it all.

Which brings me to today! When I photographed these springtime porch sessions, I was just so impressed with all the love that I found at every single house. The love between families and friends and the optimism that radiated from so many of these amazing families. I shot these photographs over two and a half days – and am only sharing my shots from the first day because my brain bandwidth is currently at an all time low (honestly, it feels like I have kids coming out of my ears right now, hahaha) – and, looking back at these + all the other photographs, I can’t help but smile. This year has been so heartbreaking and difficult but, through it all, I’m so grateful to know – and meet! – so many amazing people with the most wide open hearts. It’s incredible and I’m so thankful that I get to photograph the best people.

Whew! Don’t mind that sap! Quarantine has been hard on this mom!

Here’s something a little less sappy instead: Can’t wait to share a glimpse of this fun day with y’all! Between a college senior on the brink of graduation, a house full of friends that felt more like sisters than roommates, and one of my all time favorite families (I love the Neldon’s!), you’re going to freaking love these.
