My Family

Important lessons I learned while taking pictures of my family:

1. Never assume your children care that you are a professional and should therefore be able to get a good family picture

2. Never tickle someone when you are above them on a slide

3. Never tickle someone when you are extremely ticklish

I decided to try to get a smile from my husband, he flipped me right over.familypictures1Do you like my death grip on the remote for my camera? I know what is important. I am fine with falling as long as I get the shot!

Puddle Jumping at last!

Here is a little disclamer, most of these pictures are black and white. I kept trying to add more color but my mouse kept drifting to the black and white version!

It rained a lot the day before my session with this family so I asked the mom what she thought about doing some rain boot shots. They did not have rain boots so she was just going to bring them play clothes but ended up buying the kids rain boots the day of!

The only problem was the two little cuties were not sure about jumping in puddles.

I might have scared them off by laying in the mud and rolling around to get a shot…you have to do what you have to do.

At the very end they did decide they wanted to try it and after little sister surprised us all by just jumping straight in big brother soon followed. You can’t let little sisters have all the fun.

Go find some puddles to jump in!
