So when one of your closest friends, who also is a professional photographer, asks you to create some family portraits one thinks, "Hmm, now the pressure is on!"  But since I have known Kristen for over 20 years, this was going to be a breeze, as my goal was to bring their personalities through.  We chose a location called "The Porch Cantina" in Winston-Salem, North Carolina to create something more urban and edgy.  

Kristen, I hope this captures the "Why" of your family.  Thanks for letting me do this for you.  What a blast !!!
