Family and Fall

Family Portraits

Family. Family is the most important thing there is in this world. They are the ones that you can always count on when life gets crazy and hard. They celebrate your victories right alongside you, and always have your back. This family right here, is no exception to all these things and much more.

I have had the joy of knowing this family for quite some time now, some of them I have gotten to know very well and build beautiful friendships with. Every single one of these people right here, are some of the kindest and most thoughtful folks you could ever get to know. They are a truly top notch family!

It was super exciting for me when they asked if I could do a great big family shoot for them. I knew with the energy they bring with them, it would be a total blast, and it was! They always make my "job" easy, with their fun loving natures and rock star personalities. Even with a few littles that weren't so much into the time of day for their photos, they pulled together to help get each of the kiddos to crack a smile for at least a few shots.

I loved how they managed to flawlessly coordinate their outfits with so many individuals too! They never miss a beat when it comes to style! Even more lovely than their outfits though, is the love they all share together. They were more than happy to mix it up for some really beautiful combinations. So often I hear big family photos that are only focused on the single photo of the whole family, and while that is definitely important, so are all the smaller combinations too. Photos of just the parents, the siblings, the grandparents and grandbabies, these special spots also are wall worthy photos.

Of course we had the usual Fall fun of playing in the leaves and having a leaf throwing battle together too. I am forever a sucker for the simple beauty of the changing leaves and Fall colors. And I never miss an opportunity to add in some fun and romantic photos of the couples I work with. All in all, we had a really fabulous afternoon together capturing this moment in their lives together. So often we wait for a special reason to take photos together with our loved ones, but every single day we are here is special, because we never know when our lives will change or how.

I am so thankful to each and every one of you in this extra special family for allowing me to capture these family photos for you. Being able to know all of you is such a wonderful blessing to my life, and I hope that this small service that I provide is a blessing to your lives for many years to come!
