Oh I couldn’t agree with you more. Except my unplanned perfection shots just don’t turn out as beautiful as yours. I LOVE yours! And I’m all about the candid moments, so real.
You have the most gorgeous family. Love your baby’s little toothy grin. Those lips on Liv are beautiful!
Can’t wait to see what #3 looks like.
And of course as always, great images Melissa!
I love this post!
I always keep my camera on my kitchen counter for moments like these.
Amazing shots Melissa!
Beautiful…

Hmmm, I know what you’re thinking. One of two things: 1. “Melissa, boy am I glad you took pictures of this hunk-a-licious military model with his shirt off!” or 2. “Melissa, why are you taking pictures of this young hunk-a-licious military model with his shirt off?” Well either way, I can’t take...
