the lang family
Some friends of the boys and of mine too. We have a little bartering deal going on…a photoshoot for a massage. I have a back full of knots (I guess sitting at the computer non stop and when I'm not here, I'm carrying around a heavy camera bag and another camera around my neck. Ya think that might contribute to that situation?) but I'm waiting til January for my 'payback' cause doing anything like that now would just be a total waste!
This is such a fun, together family with a bunch of great people in it. Hope I captured that. It was freezing and getting dark so we worked FAST. Hope you love them G. Get ready cause I'm gonna be a bigger mess by January!!

the sylv family & the baun family
Going to be short on narrative this evening…back (WAY back) in the editing weeds. So far back that maybe it’s jungle instead of weeds. Someone loan me a machette?
Love this family- they are so nice! I brought Jack along to help out with the baby smiles and they were so good to him- they even fed him! He made fast friends with their oldest and coaxed some smiles out of all the boys with some good starwars moves/imitations. You know I had to have a soft spot for the three boys thing!
Another family that you’ve seen before on the blog (last time was at the beach with the whole extended family) and mom was Jack’s assistant teacher a few years back. She’s awesome! Her son is usually a very smiley happy boy…but the day of the shoot? Not so much! He wasn’t having it at all. None of my tricks, nor mom’s or dad’s, or even grandma’s could get this kid to crack a smile. He was so upset and I felt terrible. Mom said he had a rough night the night before, so maybe something was brewing or teething. Who knows?? But we did get a few regardless- just not so smiley.

the davi family
well, most of the family. Dad was away on business but we did the shoot because mom’s mother and grandmother were both in town at the same time (which I understand is a rare occurrance) and they really, really wanted a mulit-generational shot of all the family “girls”. They showed me a picture of a previous multi-generational shoot where mom was the baby and it was her mom, grandma, and great grandma. So this was a very important session to try to capture that very special moment and bond. I think we got it.
When they first contacted me and told me they had newborn twin girls, I knew I was in for a good time. Their big brother was FANTASTIC with them and for me and let me get some fabulous pictures of them together. While he was definitely a busy 6 year old boy, bouncing around, when he held the babies he was so careful and gentle. He’s going to be the best big brother as they grow.
The babies were so delicious and sweet. They were sooo good for the whole shoot and were just so easy both awake and sleeping. And you know I wouldn’t be me if I didn’t do some wacky shots of them in odd places.
With this last group, when I showed mom one of the shots in the camera, she started crying. (I am blogging this with permission). There is absolutley no greater compliment than seeing that. Knowing that I moment I captured was so moving that it could make a parent cry!? Have I mentioned that I love what I do??!

the zam & murp families
Traveled over to Staten Island on the oddest weather day for a shoot for this family (actually two families but they are related). It was sunny, it was raining, it was doing both. We snuck outside for a few shots of the bigger kids, but it was still a bit chilly for the babies. Lots of fun outfit changes for everyone and a few doggy friends joined us too.
