Our family had the big bi-annual Ashby reunion this summer and when I saw the location, I just about gasped! A private lake, all to ourselves, complete with two little islands in the middle of the lake. When I saw the rowboat, I decided to ask my sister-in-law, Beth, if she and her hubby would be interested in ’letting me’ take pictures of them with it. Doing a session on a lake with a row boat has been a long time dream of mine, so I wasn’t ready to pass up the opportunity! They are SO adorable together, and we had an awesome time doing their session (luckily, I carefully cropped out my husband on the Sea Doo in the background! LOL!). Here are a bunch of faves…
I couldn’t decide if I liked this next picture in color or black and white. So I posted both!


Thanks, Beth & Brian, for being such willing and gorgeous participants!!
