I am a great believer in the seasons...

Even here in my own world, I have no relish for sweet corn in January or strawberries in November. ~Pearl S. Buck

Where is summer, you ask? Look behind you. Honestly I am cool with it. The middle there was suffocatingly hot (which means a lot coming from someone who is constantly cold. I wear my thickest turtleneck as I type this). It feels like the past 8 months have been a tough slog in anticipation of a fun and busy fall.

The photos that follow were taken on a recent perfect summer evening (not too hot, not too cold - YES, I BABY BEAR MY WAY THROUGH LIFE OK??) in Boulder. These people are hands down my most faithful clients - I have photographed them since before Lennon was born 9 years ago. This year, Lauren and the girls came to hang out and get ready at my place while we waited for dad to finish up a business meeting, and I was blown away by how grown up both of the girls are. They are little adults, totally engaging and curious and delightful. They are also very clearly best friends. Sisters get my feels more than any other relationship I photograph, and this pair is especially endearing. As always, 10 million thanks to this family!
