The Carley Family 30 August 2015

Such a beautiful family! These kids are so full of energy and while the boys jab at each other, I have secretly seen them be civil with each other and super lovey with their baby sister. This is my second time photographing the kids and the first time photographing the whole family. I really loved the dynamics of having the whole group together and doing smaller groups as well. Thanks for inviting me in for some last-Sunday-before-school-starts fun! Enjoy!

The Stratman Family 27 August 2015

Brynlee has to be one of the smartest and funniest 2 year old kiddos I've ever met. When I asked her who the smartest girl was, she said "me." Love it! Her smile makes me giggle and her 2 year old sassiness rocks. She loved to dance around when I sang my awesome rendition of Bah Bah Black Sheep and she knows exactly what she "needs." Her mom will understand that. Thanks for letting play around with you guys. The weather was a little weird but I think we still got some real gems on this shoot. Enjoy!

The Lovely Larsons 25 August 2015

So many great, iconic photos to choose from on this family photo shoot. It was really hard to narrow these down for just a couple previews. This family loves to cheer each other on to get those amazing smiles flowing. I loved using the train station (I'd like to say I planned to have a train that said merry christmas in spray paint whiz by in the background but that was sheer dumb luck!) You guys have a beautiful family inside and out. Enjoy.

VanDreese Family Rockin It 35 Years Later 23 August 2015

This family was so much fun for me. I can't be sure they had as much fun but they had great senses of humor so I suspect it was enjoyable for them too. We had wind, we had dogs, we had a chilly wet-ish morning and we had little kiddos all presenting as challenges but the warmth this family projects is contagious and made this shoot such a pleasure. They have such a breezy way about them and I instantly felt comfortable with them all. Thanks for letting me play around on your beautiful property! Happy Anniversary and I wish you many happy more.

 Just because this photo cracks me up and I LOVE it, I've included it for everyone's enjoyment...#awkwardfamilyphoto. Yes that is a crazy auntie under the blanket holding the crying baby up!
