Grace and Amelia - - - NJ Photographer

I think most people have a friend or two they can go a long time without seeing or even talking to, and then get together with and have a totally comfortable, fun time, as if only a few days have passed since the last visit. I am lucky enough to have this kind of friendship with Holly. We were friends in high school and since then it's been the occasional wedding or baby shower or long weekend visit. Always totally comfortable. Always totally enjoyable.

I was able to take pictures of her when she was pregnant with her twin girls and then of her with the girls when they were babies, so I was thrilled when she told me her family would be visiting Montana when we were there this month.

Not only did Paul and I get to introduce her and her husband to Xander, and to spend a fun night out sans kids, but we of course took the opportunity to do a quick family shoot one day when we got our families together in Kalispell.

It's so cool to see her girls growing up and to watch her be a mom. Here are some of my favorites.

This is Grace...

And because I can't resist posting a couple of my Xander, here he is with Holly honking his nose!
