Floyd Lamb Park Family Session - Las Vegas Family/Portrait Photographer

Moving to Las Vegas was a big step for my family, I was pregnant with my 3rd and didn’t know many people. And as we all know, the hardest part of modern motherhood is realizing village is gone. But then social media connected people in a way that noone could imagine, moms connected through mutual interests such as breastfeeding. And that is how I met many great mothers, that is how I met Samantha. She was like encyclopedia of knowledge, for mothers struggling with labor preparations, breastfeeding, sleeping habbits, gentle parenting techniques and everything else motherhood related. She was always talking from the heart, from her own experiences, even mistakes - always honest, open and on point. Her family is one of those model families you only heard about - her husband is very sweet and calm and she is very energized and happy. Perfect match. Their boys are all of that, picked up all of the best traits from their amazing parents. Revan, the younger one, is sweet and calm, very attached to his mom, enjoys cuddles and endless love. Xavier, older one, seems very responsible around his baby brother, likes watching over him, very eloquent for his age. Both of them were so sweet to both Samantha and Justin, bond was strong and besides all that energy and running and chasing birds and bees - the whole family looked content and in peace. I felt lucky they chose me to be their photographer. The location was amazingly beautiful, Floyd Lamb Park never disappoints with so many greens, lake, ducks and bunnies. Weather was going all the way from sunny and warm to cold and windy in matter of seconds, but as a Las Vegas family and portrait photographer I have learned to expect it all from Mother Nature! Challenging session but so much fun! You don’t get to hang out with such an amazing people every day, right?

Blossom in Gardens Park - Las Vegas Family/Portrait Photographer

The bond between moms and their babies is unconditional, it is purest love that there is, they say it is “understanding of any situation and forgiving of any mistake”. It is very challenging to photograph and capture its essence, to have those strong emotions, those moments and memories saved and worth looking over and over again. The bond that is so sacred, you almost don’t want to interrupt neither mom or her babies interacting, but as a photographer, you know you need to pose them somehow, move around and chase that perfect light. However, as challenging as it may look like, once you have that MOM, who is such a strong, calm, heavenly beautiful inside and out human, who's energy is affecting everybody around - you know things will go smoothly, no matter what. That golden sunset light was on point, park was looking so grand and marvelous with all that white blossom, even park visitors moved as we were working on making memories. Being #Las Vegas family/portrait photographer and having to chase toddlers around for that one good shot taught me patience and also showed me that even though we live in a desert, blossoms here are nothing short of spectacular. The thing is, they do not last. I had to clear up my already busy schedule and just go and shoot, no delaying, no rescheduling. Having Vedrana as a best friend means that she will move fast, she will come, she will give her best. And every shot was just like that - worth printing, and blowing up on big size canvas! Both Darian and Matia were attached to their mom, looking at her, listening and squeezing her hands. So much love, it can never ever be undone or changed by time or distance. Eternal."
