The Wang Family Session at University of Notre Dame
The Wang family strolled Notre Dame’s campus on a warm evening this summer for some beautiful family portraits!
I first met the Wang family when they moved from Michigan to join the Notre Dame family. Our session that summer took place at their home, and featured Yichun’s sweet mother who was living with their family as they transition into their new place.
It was so nice to catch up with this family to learn how they were settling in and adjusting to the area. What a crazy time it has been for them to move into new jobs and neighborhood as things began to close down due to the pandemic. But these three are making it home and jumping right in as the “new normal” begins and are just the sweetest family to capture!
It seemed fitting to capture their family on campus since that is what brought them to the area. We were able to set a date prior to students coming back for the academic year, so it was peaceful on this sunny summer evening and we nearly had it all to ourselves!
I’ve shared before that one of my favorite parts of being a family photographer is clients who come back each year and I get to catch up with them and to see their little ones grow! Our first session together, I had to pull every trick out of the bag to win over Alex. That included running around in his backyard kicking soccer balls while juggling my camera! He is definitely coming out of his shell and is such a sweet, ornery, silly little guy! He was starting school shortly after this session, so he will have fresh family photos to bring with him for his cubby!
We hit many of the typical landmarks across campus, but I tried to mostly give them some space to be a family and enjoy each other’s company on a gorgeous campus on a gorgeous evening. I loved hearing them laugh together!
Thank you Yichun, Philip, and Alex for a fun session at Notre Dame!
