“Walkin’ on Sunshine” kept popping into my head while editing this family photography session. You know the one by Katrina and the Waves. And just in case you’re too young to remember, here it is. (Don’t be mad if it’s stuck in your thoughts for the rest of the night.)

We shot this one just before sunset and I’m sure the inspiration for that little number in my head has something to do with the wash of warm light all around us, not to mention the happiness emanating from this family. Love them!

Below are many of my favorites from their session. I’m slowly getting through the backlog of blog postings. To that, I say “And don’t it feel good!”

I had so much fun with the haze from the sun, the back lighting and a watercolor texture added in post-processing. I can see these displayed as gallery-wrapped canvases.
