Portraits of My Family









Thought I'd post a few portraits of my family. I just photographed them the other day and as I look at the images I can't believe they have gotten so old Cydney is 12 and Smith is 8. I still think of Cydney snuggling on my chest as a baby. I loved holding her and we both wake up soaked in sweat (I hope) but I didn't want to let go of her.

Smith has always been a full blown boy, loving gadgets and power tools! He also loves to read and learn. He and I bonded at a much different age than Cydney and I. I love them both sooo much it's hard to express.
My daughter Kelly and my wife Lucie also agreed to be in a few of the images. Kelly somewhat reluctantly. She's the child that when she was a high school senior wouldn't let me set up an appointment to do her senior pictures. She just wanted to waltz into the studio at the moment when her hair was doing really well and she was in the mood and have me do them. Unfourtunately for her at them time of my career I was busy busy busy and made her wait until I was able to do them.
She's great now though and it's so neat having your child become your friend.
As for Lucie, of course I saved the best for last! She's been the love of my life since our blind date 32 years ago. We have shared so many things great and not so great but still enjoy each others company and support each others talents. She is such and artist. If you get a chance go to her web site http://www.ljeffron.com/ and check out her art.
I hope you enjoy the images as much as I do.
