The Bartolo Family-
With their youngest in Philadelphia embarking on the first year of her college adventure, Jim and Tammy decided that it is finally time to downsize and sell their beautiful home in Pollock Pines, that Jim actually built. There’s a lot of love in that home. And, with all of the girls and grandma Josephine in town and available over the holidays, it was a perfect time to capture them all in their home, the home they all grew up in (even Jim…ehhh, maybe not- likely still working on it). And I can say that because I’ve known the Bartolo’s for awhile so a bit of bantering back and forth feels natural, in fact, they’re easy to joke around with as they all love to laugh as you’ll see in these photographs. Over they years I have captured each of their senior photographs and Kalene, Samantha and Jacqueline have all done a run of babysitting with my girls. I have lots of respect for Tammy and Jim for the great job they did raising them- all of them lovely, personable and beautiful in their own unique ways. But it’s bittersweet when these are likely the last photographs that they’ll have together before they move on to whatever is next. In fact, are you looking for a beautiful timber frame home? Let me know and I will most certainly hook you all up (I only charge 10%, Jim:). Thanks for trusting me to capture these, Bartolo Family. Wonderful to see you all together!
