This beautiful family, regularly seen on my blog, belongs to my good friend and fellow photographer, Deb.

Deb and I met back in 2006 while I was living in California attending photography school. Life got busy and we kind of lost touch, and then I moved back to Atlanta, making hanging out pretty impossible. So when they moved to Tampa, I was stoked!  I took full advantage of the relatively cheap and quick 1 hour flight and visited as much as I could during the 3 years they were there -always having loads of fun and always feeling super loved and welcome 🙂

These shots were taken during my last visit this summer before they moved to Japan. I’m missing them all like crazy but planning a visit to see them in Japan in 2016. Absolutely can’t wait!!!
