one of the big stories during our week in connecticut was the new big windmill in new haven.
“did you hear about the guy who built that windmill? he’s powering his whole business with it.”
“wow, what great marketing and publicity for the business! what a great idea!”
“yeah, i heard he’s the greenest printer in the country. sweet.”

and then we meet the driscoll family only to learn that he’s “that guy!”
and the locations we had picked out for the shoot? right behind the windmill by his office.

craziness.

but the real story…is the family.
love them. love them. love them.
once again, what is it with all the cool families around guilford connecticut?!! must be something in the water.

well…here’s a few of our faves, starting of course, with the family pic by the windmill

i’m just gonna say it. the first pic on this blog (cutest little boy ever in the train)…. i wish i had a pic of me like that when i was a kid!!
but i don’t. just funny looking ones with a big fat belly in every one of them.
seriously, don’t you just want to squeeze him!!!

and then his sister?! you kidding me.
this diaz family has got some crazy good looking genes of cuteness.

here’s a few of our faves from one of our last sessions in CT.

we meet krissy wall. whom we love. krissy says, “you’ve got to meet christine!”. which we did. and we love her.
christine says, “you’ve got to shoot my family.” which we did. and we love them (see below!).
then christine also says, “you’ve got to meet justin and mary marantz (some other photogs in new haven). which we did on our last trip out there. and we love them.

our lesson? do whatever krissy or christine say. and we’ll love it!!

bottom line, we should have become friends with this family a long, long, long time ago. it’s been our loss not knowing them till now!!
but now we’re friends. life is better.

and then they moved to washington dc
anyone in dc want a session??? we’re thinking we’re just about due for a trip there
