happenstance |ˈhapənˌstans| noun chiefly N. Amer. coincidence
It had been five years since I photographed this family. Then it was for Eriko and Peter’s wedding. Dorian, Eriko’s son was thirteen and little Liam wasn’t even a glint in his parents eyes yet! I was making my annual trip down to Southern California to set up holiday sessions when I got a message from Eriko. A lot had changed in the five years we’d seen each other, Liam was born and they all now lived in Vietnam. It happened that on the exact weekend I’d be in town, they would be too, tying up some lose ends of their home sale. I was excited, it had been so long. So I was a bit shocked when Dorian got out of the car all grown up with his beautiful girlfriend, Lily in tow. It takes you back a little bit! Liam and I didn’t hit it off right away, he was awoken from a nap when he arrived at the session. Yeah, I had to work my magic pretty quickly. About ten minutes in we were joking about bananas of all things and the smiles were plentiful! It was nice seeing Peter and Eriko as parents, they dote on Liam so much and it is very nice to see. I like seeing the two of them so happy! I enjoyed my time with them very much. Until next time!
