Just a few hours before this next sitting we were about to call it off and reschedule...rain was in the area and it was not looking promising. But the sitting was to celebrate a mom's birthday. Having the opportunity to capture all her grandchildren in one picture made the decision to try and squeeze the sitting in before winter descended an easy one. Amazingly the rain stayed away until the very end and all the kids had so much fun playing together in the fall leaves. The age range of the kids made for capturing quick moments before a few would become less than interested in sitting on a lap. What was wonderful about this family is they were so easy going and really up for anything. They were all just thankful the family was together. It was an incredible sight seeing how much fun the cousins had together.
Once again, I had a hard time narrowing down to favorites so I choose a few from the very first pictures I took that capture the laughter and love the kids shared throughout the sitting. Then I wanted to share one image of each grandchild and a few with the grandparents. I decided each mom deserved a special image...one mom worked hard to coordinate all the families schedule with mine (and one rained out sitting a week earlier), another was a major trooper having the youngest one in the bunch (never easy w/ cold, wind, feeding & nap times) and the last had to drive across town after a long day of teaching just to arrive as we finished up...great women! And the last image is of the birthday girl with her husband of 46 year. A wonderful couple that I feel fortunate to have met. I enjoyed every minute with this family! Happy Birthday Barbara...It was a pleasure meeting you and your wonderful family!
