A while back I got a call from Naomi, who wanted to surprise her parents with a family portrait. They were all gathering to celebrate her parent's 30th wedding anniversary in Niagara on the Lake. The family were coming from Manhattan New York, Boston, MA, and Washington. While I drove to meet them at the Bed and Breakfast they were staying at, the rain drops started on my windshield. I thought we'd be doing the portraits indoors until Naomi met me at the door and mentioned her Mom loves the water. The rain held back as we headed to the Queens Royal Park and used the gazebo and the huge tree down by the mouth of the river. In a few of the photos I included Fort Niagara across the river so they can have a bit of the good old US of A in their portrait. They were such a great family to work with and happy to try anything I suggested. RN
