Frisco, TX – wishes and lanterns

06.04.12

This is the second time I have photographed this super connected, lively family. The first time was here in California while they were on vacation.
Shelley was the one who inspired this trip – so big thank you to Shelley for allowing me to visit Texas and meet a bunch of really wonderful people.

She made the quilt for the session and found the lanterns on Amazon – they each wrote a wish, hope, or dream on the paper and we set them off. It was a little bit harder than expected and we lost a lot of light while trying to light the lanterns, and then almost caught a tree on fire. (ALMOST). Even though it didn’t end up exactly as planned, the experience was a wonderful way to start off my Texas sessions.

-Tara

**NEXT TRIP – I will be heading to San Francisco in July – if you would like more information please contact me.
