Colling Photography: Kent & Beth

Meet the other Colling family from Virginia! Kent is actually my uncle and one of the big reasons we live in Virginia today. He was already working in Lynchburg back when I was doing my undergrad in Electrical Engineering and suggested that I apply at Ericsson for a summer internship. This gave me experience as a software engineer and upon graduating the following year, I was offered a full time position.

Two duffel bags of clothes and nine years later, Kathie and I have made our home here in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains and are happily enjoying our four kids and the beautiful outdoors of central VA. And just in case you need proof of that beautiful scenery -- keep reading!

Kent and Beth brought the kids out for a photo shoot at our new secret location. Ok it's not that secret but it is our new favorite spot! (We'll actually be doing a wedding there soon so stay tuned!) The old rock amphitheater was an incredible location and we were there at the perfect time of day for some great light. Unfortunately, most of the gnats in the area seem to like that spot too. But after a dash back to the van and a quick dusting of Deep Woods Off, we were ready to go.

After a few family shots the kids took off and had a lot of fun running through the grass and up and down the steps. And at one point they were kind enough to give us a glimpse of their alternate superhero egos. Enjoy!
