The Ducey Family

When Max and I were at his monthly portrait appointment at JCPenny, a tradition that was started when I was a child, we ran into Melissa, a mom of three adorable little girls. You probably would imagine that a mother with three girls, ages 3, 2 and not yet 1, might be a little frazzled, but not Melissa. She was calm and collected--a true source of inspiration, and possibly a bit of jealousy, for all parents who have taken their kids to the mall. While waiting, we struck up a conversation, and found we had some commonalities. We traded information, and became friends on Facebook. 

When Melissa heard I was starting Porter Photography, she asked me to photograph them for their Christmas card. I met them at their beautiful home, and was welcomed by three pretty little girls all in matching red dresses! I loved interacting with them and getting to know them better. I could easily see that Brian and Melissa are great parents and that their daughters are their priority. I especially loved that they set one wall aside for an art wall. The girls are allowed to draw and color on that one wall, and what a beautiful work of art it is! They are such sweet girls and it's easy to see why their parents are so proud. What a great family!
