I said it in my last post...but I really do have the best cousins. Valerie (the mom) is one of my many 1st cousins, and she's as nice as a person can be. When I mentioned that I'd be up in Northern Maine for a little bit and looking for people wanting portraits, Valerie jumped on it. She loves taking pictures too, so I'm happy to be able to get pictures of her! 

I loved traipsing around the Lumberman's Museum and snagging some scenic family shots like the one of the pretty fabulous Mount Katahdin. Technically the mountain was behind all of my backdrops for the Patten sessions (you just couldn't see it in Mindy's photo shoot!). It was really great photographing a young lady like Josie. I'm usually chasing the toddlers, but we crawled through culverts!

Thank you for a fun afternoon! More great pics coming your way.
