One of the biggest rewards of photographing weddings is that you get to meet nice and intelligent people, and later develop a friendship with them.  And years later after their wedding, you get to meet their first babies…how sweet!

Erin is one of them.  Erin and Ben married several years ago. They work and live in Chicago area but Erin’s parents live in Seattle.  For the past few years Erin and I have been keeping in touch through emails.  This year Erin, Ben, and their lovely one year old daughter, London, came back to Seattle for visit (they also need to go to Michigan to visit Ben’s parents when they are not coming to Seattle) so we arranged a family photo session at Gaswork Park yesterday.  It was just so nice to see Erin, Ben, and their daughter, and Erin’s parents and siblings again!

The whole family was super easy and fun to work with.  They were very photogenic and apparently they are very close to each other so there were a lot of fun and great interactions among them and all I needed to do was to be ready and snap.  We all had a great time
