"THEN...I saw a new kind! And they were good, too! How could I pick one? Now what should we do? We could only pick one. That is what my dad said. But how could I make up that mind in my head?" - Dr. Seuss That's exactly what editing feels like when you meet amazing people and you just click...and then click and click away. M was so much fun to work with! The photo ops just kept coming & coming. It was hard to keep up at times. I can't wait for our full family photo session th
