I was contacted by this family to take some group portraits the day after Christmas… they were my first of two shoots of the day!  Lots of people in from out of town for the long weekend makes memories that need to be captured!   While I captured the standard portraits, my favorite pictures from the day are the ones in between the formal session when the kids were kids and they were able to be themselves.

There’s always one kid that picks their nose or sucks their thumb at the most inopportune times!

 

No matter how ‘grown up’ you may be, your sisters will still fuss over you!

 

My favorite picture of the day.  LOVE.

 

How can you not smile at this cutie?

 

I love when I’m able to get outdoors… even if it’s a bit chilly!

 

This little girl is already an accomplished pianist!

 

While her sister played, she danced on the ‘stage’ with a steadying hand from Grandpa.

 

Next up…. the second session from the day!
