As soon as the family stepped out of the car, the little boy came running up to me and gave me a huge hug. I’ve never met him before. I knew right then and there that this photo session was going to be full of so much fun and love.

The weather was chilly so throughout the photo session so I had the kids running, dancing, hugging, and cuddling to keep warm. The result? So many precious moments shared between siblings. The parents hung back and were at the ready with tissue (hello, runny noses) while I had fun with their sweet, cute kiddos.

Their daughter was such a loving, gentle big sister while their son was full of fun-loving energy. The combination made for one of my favorite photo sessions that will always be so memorable to me.

Here’s a sneak peek at the mini photo session with the Malloy Family in Frederick, Maryland.
