Heartwarming Family Photo Session at Speedwell Forge Lake: Capturing Joy, Love, and a Chocolate Lab's Signature Move

As a family photographer, every session is a unique adventure, and the experience with Gloria, Sean, their vivacious 6-year-old daughter Louna, and their lovable 12-year-old chocolate lab, Cayenne, was nothing short of heartwarming.


The connection began through an old friend and classmate who referred this delightful family to me. Gloria, the mom, and I collaborated to find the perfect location for their family Christmas card and timeless home decor. After exchanging outfit ideas and discussing accessories, we settled on the picturesque Speedwell Forge Lake in Lititz, PA, for a golden hour session.


As the day of the shoot arrived, I was greeted with warm embraces and infectious smiles. The excitement in the air was palpable, especially since I had been forewarned that Louna had a penchant for hamming it up for the camera.


Our chosen setting, a gravel path bathed in the soft glow of golden hour sunshine, was the perfect canvas for our session. However, our furry friend Cayenne had other plans. Much to our surprise, the elderly chocolate lab decided to explore, making a beeline for a steep hill leading straight to the lake.


In a moment of panic, we imagined an unexpected family swim, but Sean, Louna's dad, quickly leaped into action, catching Cayenne before she ventured too close to the water's edge. With Cayenne safely back in the car, we continued our session, capturing the genuine joy and love that this family shares.


We started with heartwarming photos of the whole family. Louna, true to expectations, added a dose of playful energy to every frame. Individual shots of Louna with each parent highlighted the unique bond she shares with both mom and dad.


As the session progressed, I found myself drawn into the warmth and connection this family exuded. Conversations flowed effortlessly, and laughter echoed through the air. Nearing the end, I got carried away by the creative process, inadvertently extending the session by an extra 30 minutes. The lure of capturing that perfect moment of Gloria and Sean together, and a few more candid shots of Cayenne, was irresistible. We captured Cayenne's signature rolly-polly move that brought smiles to Gloria and Sean's faces.


Sessions like these are the heartbeat of my work—moments when creativity ignites, connections deepen, and the joy of capturing genuine family love fuels my passion. The experience with Gloria, Sean, Louna, and Cayenne was a reminder of why I love what I do and an inspiration for the sessions to come. Each family brings a unique story, and I can't wait to tell the next one through my lens.
