Look at these girls!!! Such ladies they are becoming.
I remember the very first time I photographed this family — Little O was 2 and more or less preferred to be on the side of the camera than in front of it. I felt lucky to get 5 photos of her that day. And now? She’s just about a pro at having her portrait taken — she’s got her game face on, which is silly, totally herself herself, and not to mention stinkin’ cute. I enjoyed doing some “see no evil/hear no evil” pictures with her — she just strikes me as that kinda girl — the kind-hearted little mischief maker you don’t want to turn your back on for too long ;p
Big sister A is so remarkable too. Last year she started styling her family for our shoots, and they continue to look great! I really wanted to show how much she’s growing up too, and did some more sophisticated portraits with her too, still working to preserve her pre-teen personality. There was some tree hugging too.
We ended our shoot with some 1:1 photos for just mom and dad. I love taking the time to photograph just the parents alone. There just comes a time when the kids are old enough to loiter at my feet while Mom and Dad snag a few photos of just themselves to remind them of the unit that began the family.
This session also took place at NDNU in Belmont. I feel so fortunate this year! I’ve returned to some locations from the past, but also ventured out into some new spots and it’s been a fabulous win! While NDNU has been in my repertoire before, it’s nice to be able to show off it’s amazing variety of scenes: all just within 30 ft of each other. Seriously! I’m loving the afternoon light here, especially in the fall.
