He’s named Tuck because he would always tuck himself away from the camera during our ultrasounds, Molly informed me as she introduced me to their almost 4 week old son. I had photographed her firstborn, spunky, Will, about 2 years ago and Molly’s husband, Tim, was stationed elsewhere. So, for this session, I not only met Tucker, but I had the honor of meeting Molly’s other half as well. Tim is finally assigned to a position in Des Moines and they are a full family of four, finally living under the same roof.
Molly had the beautiful idea of walking to an area right near their home-it worked out wonderfully and I loved being able to photograph a new location.
Looking at Will’s eyes, I was mesmorized and jealous of his lengthy, thick eyelashes. I guess the boys get the eyelashes because the ladies can always use mascara. 😉
On our way to the barn, Molly described their brief engagement due to Tim’s assignment at a faraway station. 3 months to plan a wedding, Tim arrived roughly 2 days before the ceremony, so that didn’t allow much time for engagement photos. Therefore, I was not about to take family photos and not get some of these two lovebirds.
Tuck had been so patient, it was finally his turn.
I loved this new location and couldn’t resist taking a few of the area. It’s the ultimate Iowa: high arched barn roofs, quilt squares, gorgeous sunset lighting, rich green grasses and steamy hot weather. Too bad my photos can’t capture the humidity in the air…
Tim & Molly-thank you so much for having me again! I really appreciate the new location, your trust in my abilities and your encouragement in my endeavors as we visited during our session. Many blessings on your endeavors this year!
Carrie
