I have been busy with so many fun back to school sessions lately and this darling session was no exception. Here in Colorado we go back to school so stinking early (the beginning of August is still SUMMER in my opinion), but I’m not going to complain because these bright, summery sessions give me all the feels! Back to school season is such a good time to get portraits done … what a great way to document and cherish the stage your children are in right now before they are another year older because we all know how fast it goes!

Bennett and Megan are as cute as can be and even more sweet. I had the greatest privilege being Bennett’s 1st grade teacher this past school year. What a lucky teacher I was to have him in my class. His smile is contagious, he is ALWAYS happy, he loves everyone around him and he is going to do amazing things — he already is! This was my first time meeting his big sis, Megan, but she’s off to 8th grade and just from spending an hour together, I can already tell that her family and friends are blessed by her. She is polite, loves her little brother, and is so beautiful inside and out! I think there are good things in store for her for her final year of middle school!

Bennett and Megan, I wish you all the best this year. Your teachers are so lucky to have you in their class(es) this year (I know from experience!), and your friends are so lucky to have you by their sides. Bennett, you are going to love second grade. Keep smiling and bringing joy to everyone around you. Megan, enjoy every minute of your last year middle school. You are going to do awesome!

Doesn’t Bennett make the cutest little assistant you’ve ever seen? I wish I could bring him along to all of my sessions! Thanks for helping, sweet boy!
