When I was in college back in 2004 or 2005, I bought a DSLR (some kind of Canon Rebel, if you must know). After years of shooting still life on my old film camera, I started taking pictures of people. One of the first paying jobs I had was taking family portraits for one of my mom’s co-workers – a wonderfully nice woman named Pam – and her three children, Annie, Andrew, and Chip. These wonderfully photogenic people became the focus of my first online portfolio, which contained approximately 20 photos. My portfolio has evolved considerably since I took their photos, and their family has as well. Annie, Andrew, and Chip are now adults. And last Saturday, Chip married a wonderful woman named Jamie.

This is the story of their day.
