children & families

the mar kids & the wlsh family

Almost there. Just have to keep repeating that. I have this last weekend of shoots coming up and then I am DONE for 2008. Well, after editing them and doing any last card orders of course. Almost there.

Tonight's posts are of two families I photographed last year and was asked to come back and photograph them again this year. Love my repeat clients! Another rainy disgusting cold day. I am NOT loving all this inside photography.

The mar kids (I guess I can still call them kids although they are significantly older than most of the "kids" I usually shoot) are just too easy. They stand where I ask, look when I say look, it's niiiice. The real challenge is getting true smiles out of them since singing wheels on the bus dosen't really fly here. Oh, and getting the dog in a shot is always a challenge as well.

The wlsh family has added a new addition since I saw them last fall- a new little boy! Their little girl is still as absolutely gorgeous and delish as always- I swear this one is like a living doll! And I even got an unsolicited hug on my way out! Even squeaked some smiles out of the baby. They are just a great family. Can't wait for next year's shoot!
