We realized just how long the J family had been coming for pictures when the mom called, upset because her oldest daughter’s picture had fallen off the wall and in the resulting crash, the 8×10 had gotten sliced up by the glass.

I told her not to worry, we’d find the file and run a new one. But the image was from 2001! Her newborn shot!

The J children come every summer to update their pictures. I got to use my brand-new drop with them, as well as capture their very sweet relationship.
