The Process
I had the pleasure to capture the process of making maple syrup this early spring. What follows is the SugarBush process where the sap has already been captured into the containers and than transferred and made into a very, very wonderful tasting Maple Syrup.

No families are perfect, that is one reason why I like to photograph them. It takes patience with the photographer and the parents and the kids to make the session a success. It all comes down to team work. You as a photographer have to make it fun, enjoyable but yet professional. Capturing families in action can and does make me work harder for that certain image. Precieved notations usually go out the window when a wrench gets thrown into the engine. You just have to pick it up and make it work, shoot for yourself but remember you have to shoot for your client first.
