Some people think I’m crazy, but I love winter. I love when it gets dark early, I love turning the fireplace on, snuggling on the couch, and shutting out the world as the wind howls outside. I love a snowstorm and being stuck in the house. My home is my favorite place to be, it’s where my heart is, and cozy sessions like this remind me of all the reasons I love this season and the warmth it brings to home.
Charis & Ryan embraced that idea and cozied up for a sweet in-home lifestyle session at the farmhouse at Woodland Weddings in Ontario, Canada as part of the Katie Nicolle One Day Film Workshop. I absolutely love the way these photos turned out and the way that film captures the rawness and vulnerability of being home, together, and in love. The raw essence of the natural emotions that a session like this evokes, the stripped down and bare feeling that your home gives.
I can’t wait to do more lifestyle sessions with my clients and would love to do one with you! Contact me and reach out if you’re interested!
