How is Fall already here?  It snuck up way too fast!  One of my favorite things about September is when my grandma makes her famous peach cobbler.  She would always make it for my grandpas birthday and we could usually talk her into doing it for one more family gathering.   We have a big family, so if you showed up late to the party at my grandparents there was a good chance you wouldn’t get a slice.

I convinced my grandma into letting me photograph her while she made it, these are all film images.  I just loved this shoot, I love my grandma and have learned so much from her.  This was supposed to be published in the last Lifestyle edition of Magnolia Rouge, but they never ended up publishing it, so I am happy to finally get it up on my blog.  I will always cherish these photos and all that I have learned from my grandma in the kitchen!
