When I first met Jordan and Dereck, it was in the backyard of a friend's house during a sweltering summer night. Back then, they were still just a young couple with wisdom to pass on to us. Now, Jordan and Dereck are a sweet family of three.

They asked me to shoot a mini session for them, and I was happy to do it. It was the first time I'd met their daughter, Aria, who turned one just a few weeks ago, and let me tell you, she is just as sweet in person as she is in photos.
