When Rylan comes home from school it’s always fun to catch up doing a photoshoot.  The venue, Ellendale Farms, is stunning and has some of the most beautiful sunsets and we were so lucky to get the perfect sunset with such a cool cloud feature. Here are a few pictures from Rylan’s fun photoshoot!

The Spainhour family is one of my favorite families!
