A really great perk to being a wedding photographer is that you get to meet all kinds of creative people that are just as passionate about….well, about passion! And we’ve met some fabulous people in every industry over the years. One of them is Paul Natale, a DJ with Murray Hill Talent. We recently bumped into him again at a networking breakfast here in Peabody and it was fun to catch up with him again. Rene and I had donated a gift certificate for a portrait session which would be raffled off during the networking event. Imagine our surprise when Paul won the gift certificate! We were so excited because we’d finally get to meet this gorgeous wife he keeps telling us about and also their two kids. Paul, on the hand, was equally excited because this gorgeous wife of his had also been hounding him for months to schedule a portrait session for their children and winning this gift certificate suddenly made his life so much easier.
So we quickly picked an afternoon when Paul would be able to bring the whole family by the studio, and we had such an amazing time playing with their kids. Paul’s wife, Melissa, is every bit as gorgeous as he described her. And we just fell in love with their kids!!
My best new buddy, Evi…. She’s not camera shy at all so we quickly discovered we had a lot in common.
And here’s little man Quinn, who always seems so much wiser than his age:
Now *this* is a great belly laugh:
And finally, Paul and Melissa wanted a family portrait that showed off each of their personalities….instead of one that just showed off their smiles! So after a little monkeying around we ended up with my favorites:
You truly have a beautiful family, Melissa and Paul! We can’t wait to see you again soon!!
