Back in the fall, Krista was anxiously preparing for her journey to Nepal to work on a documentary film with Code Red Films and eager to get some portraits done before her trip. She decided to hold a fundraising mini-portrait marathon one October weekend to assist in the costs associated with her (not-for-profit) trip. After scouting beautiful trees and parks for weeks we finally decided to stage the event next door! With a little help from Russell Farms (who so graciously lent us hay stacks and pumpkins for the day),  and Krista’s awesome neighbors, it could not have looked better!

There are SO many sweet families, I will *try* and let the pictures do most of the talking.  :)

This little football player (oh how his dad would DIE – in a good way! – if that were to come true someday!) is a friend of mine.  :)  His mama and I met almost five years ago when we were both struggling with brand new little babes!

This little man is Dylan.  Based on his genes, it is very likely that he will be a marathon runner by the time he is out of high school!  Both of his parents can RUN.
