Family Photography in Castle Rock, CO

Funny story about how April and I hooked up for her family pictures.

I was at church waiting for Bible study to begin, when my B.Buddy, Tina asked me to help get a new girl all signed up and assigned to a small girl. New Girl = April

We chatted a bit while I got her all signed up and then we went our separate ways.

A couple of weeks later I spied April holding with sweet little red-head and I was smitten!!

"You have to let me take her picture!" I said.

The nursery girl, Tami, chimed in "Oh yes, you have too!!"

April looked a bit overwhelmed... like okay you weird ladies back off.

But she was sweet and instead said "Oh... are you a photographer?"

I tried to reel it in and play it cool... I explained that I was indeed a photographer and that if she was interested in getting pictures done she could check out my website "it 3, the number, Wishes..."

"What? You're 3 Wishes Photography?" She interrupted.

She had been spying out my work for a while!!

Pretty cool huh!?!? That very afternoon, she posted on the 3 Wishes Facebook page

"Cija: I'm in awe of how the Lord works! I'm so glad to have found you and look forward to doing a session (or two) in the near future! Blessings, April (Jake & Hannah)."

A few weeks after that and here we are!!!

I must admit her kids are A-D-O-R-A-B-L-E!!

Tina is going to be little ticked with me, she told me before she left that they had the cutest baby ducklings and I just had to get a picture with the kids.... I forgot : (

(Why was Tina there???? Because she is the BEST hair and make up artist EVER! and she came to pamper April before her shoot.)

Gene and April live on a beautiful piece of property just a hop, skip and a jump south of me and it was so much fun 4 wheeling in the truck going from spot to spot. (I even thought we got stuck one time, but no, Gene managed to get us out!!)
