November 9, 2009
We had terrific light yesterday afternoon! M. is one of the smartest 7 year olds I have met (she can spell so many hard words!) and has the prettiest eyes ever! A. is without a doubt the hairiest “sibling” I have photographed!

(butterfly kisses):







Thanks H. Family!

I just adore your family shoots Mindy — and no doubt this beautiful family does too! Phenomenal work :)
Love love LOVE! Everything about these…you’re amazing :o)
Mindy -when I am fighting tears, I know I’m looking at some powerful images. You captured this family’s beauty as well as their connections to one another. How are they going to select just a few from these??? You are a true talent.
I love the connection you have with the families you work with! Amazing amazing!
Magical as always! {{LOVE}} the lying in the grass shots, and the one of the little boy flying solo!! Genius!
You are amazing!! I would fly from Australia to have you take my family portraits if I could! Beautiful work for a beautiful family!

So when you harness the light and bend it to your wonderful will, does it love you for it as much as we do? Seriously, Mindy – just amazing! What a connected family! <3
Oh. My. Gosh! Mindy, I cannot believe how these came out. I am astonished. I really didn’t think we were getting anything, and now… I don’t know how we’ll ever choose which ones we want on our wall! You are amazing! I am so thrilled! Thank you from the depths of my heart.
Wonderful family portraits, so much joy and laughter in each one! The jumping on the bed shots are really, really lovely! Thanks for sharing.
Miss Mindy…. you are magnificent. x
Ummm…WOW Mindy…your images capture all this family’s love so perfectly!!!
As a family of 6 myself I know how crazy it is to think a photographer will be able to even get one good shot, and then you think I don’t want just one, I want pictures that show my family who they are! So I give up, thinking it’s not possible and I still have yet to do a family shoot. These brought tears to my eyes because I see it’s possible with you! You captured this family wonderfully!!!! I love love love every one of these images and look forward to your blog post once again! :)
You are THE most consistent photographer I know Mindy. You’re work is just always amazing, full of emotion and genuine connection. Amazing and beautiful work here – what a lucky family :)
Thanks for such beautiful pictures of my beautiful family. Kids you were awesome! Grammy
Love these! Your work is amazing–so real and emotional. I know you have met your quota of photographer sessions for the year…I hope to snag a spot next year when you are in CT as I would so love to have candid, genuine and loving images just like these of my own family. Simply Wonderful! Thanks for the inspiration!
You amaze me every single time. If I were this family I would be over the moon. You’re a stunning talent Mindy.
