SUPERSTARS…Mom & Girls | {Spokane Family Photography}

Earlier this month I was in Spokane, visiting my mom and celebrating her birthday with her. The visit allowed an opportunity to finally get this family’s photos…we’ve been trying to connect for about two years in the fall or spring…and schedules just haven’t worked out…until now!! Mom…aka, Connie, is mother to beautiful teenage daughters, Kat and Hanna, and three of them could be mistaken for Charley’s Angels…they are a hoot together, laughing and goofing around much of the time, yet always watching out for one another! Seeing the bond between them is heartwarming and it’s almost as though they know what the other(s) need before they do! We spent a GORGEOUS fall morning in downtown Spokane, part of the time outside and part inside the historic Spokane Club, where Connie is the sports and fitness director. Just the day before the session is rained nearly all day and yet, we awoke this morning to clearing skies and even sunshine…and my heart skipped a beat with excitement…it is so beautiful in the area we shot outside that I would have been sad to have missed the opportunity! After a lot of laughing and goofing around an plenty of photos, we had brunch, with my mom and family, as well as Connie’s parents – for my mom’s birthday! You see, Connie’s mom is my God Mother…more like an aunt and I consider Connie a cousin…there’s no blood connecting us, but often, the ties are stronger between non-related “family!” Here is a peek at the fun we had….enjoy!!

Hanna and Kate are both at Ferris H.S. on the south hill in Spokane, Kat being a senior and Hanna a freshman this year.

Did I not mention there was lots of goofing around and laughing…and this was just the beginning!Since Kat had her own session last summer, I thought Hanna needed a few photos of just her…to hold her over until she’s a senior! Isn’t she beautiful!

Ummmm…a little more craziness…these were called “hair stashes!” Connie’s didn’t work very well!Aren’t they all BEAUTIFUL…such natural beauty!!

Sisters and friends…the best of the best!And, not only do the girls go to Ferris, that is where Connie went to high school as well (me, too!!)…so a great connection there!Connie has done a fabulous job raising her girls…she has a lot to be proud of!And, more goofing around…actually, Hanna lost her boot running out of the street and “hopped” her way to the sidewalk while Kat retrieved it…as a car was coming their way!Love you…sister!!!Crazy hair…crazy women!! Love them!WOW…love this photo!!!Isn’t Connie stunning…and she’s even nicer…such an amazing person!!More crazy hair!!The end!!!
