I love being part of a sneaky, covert operation, so when Teresa asked me to take portraits of she and Julia for Daddy's surprise Christmas gift, I was IN! The Hake-Rowell family lives right next to Catawba College which is just a beautiful campus, and they graciously gave me a private tour. We had to sneak around campus so Professor Hake wouldn't see us which only added to the fun. The leaves were losing their brilliant colors and falling everywhere so it made for some beautiful shots. Afterwards I was invited back to their home for some freshly baked homemade bread as an added bonus. Mmm!
Please enjoy.
This was one of our first shots under a japanese maple tree. I adore japanese maple trees!
This is nice too, no?
Love Julia against this enormous old tree.
Aren't they just gorgeous?
So warm, so pretty.
Gotta love the timeless Black & White shots.
Very last shot of our session, Julia falls into a huge bed of leaves. Just gorgeous.
Thank you, Rowell ladies! Maybe next time we'll let Daddy into our session. Oh, and your homemade bread ROCKS, Teresa!
We had such a marvelous time and managed to keep our secret but oh, was it hard!
