Taking over 1200 photos in less than 3 days time is work enough. But then sorting through and picking the best of the best is even more work. Now two weeks after the sessions I finally have a few ready to show on the blog. And all of the time and sorting is so worth it because I had such an amazing time with these families and being a part of their lives and celebrations for a holiday weekend. It was a true honor to be so included and to get to spend time with my friends at the same time. All the little ones thought the lady with the big black box infront of her face was a bit weird at times [maybe the big ones thought that too!] but I got some fun images and can’t wait to have the rest worked through and to show them all off.
These are just a favorite from each session – so hard to choose sometimes but for myself, I’m drawn to certain things so they are the ones that get sent to the blog. These are sessions only, some images from the celebrations will come later.
Family #1 – we went out to their friend’s house – they live on a beautiful, small lake and we were out late in the evening as teh sun was setting. GORGEOUS!
Family #2 – What a beautiful morning in Central Park (Gene Leahy) Mall & Heartland of America Park. We had a fine time and Catherine got to feed the ducks too! It was a great way to start the July 4th holiday which then moved to this families home and block party. So fun!
Family #3 – This was a challenge for me, the largest family I have ever photographed. Thank goodness they were so easy going and patient – depsite the wind and cold and 4 little wigglers all under 5 years old! We got to feed the ducks here, too! And you can see that Grandma and Grandpa can smile through it all, even when the grandbabies are about done with the photgrapher! It was a dreary day in Memorial Park but we had some fun!
The little duck family that kept following us around. So cute!
