children & families

the lam family

This was the far out east shoot on Sunday. A really nice and really fun family who were (mostly) game for pictures and tresspassing. Although their backyard was huge and beautiful, I found this great path on their next door neighbors property (clearly marked by a no trespassing sign) that I just knew would be great for pictures. And it was. So we all climbed thru the bushes and started in, ignoring the sign completely. Img_0511sl Img_0535sl Img_0422sl Img_0449sl Img_0491sl Img_0673sl

The two middle kids (the little girl with the curly hair and the little boy with the blonde hair) were not having much fun with me no matter what tricks I tried. She would rather just keep running, moving, and showing off her new pink crocs. And the poor little boy was just getting out of the hospital and kept saying "no doctor" to me. Nothing we did could convince him that I was NOT a doctor. But I did manage to sneak a few in when they were otherwise engaged. And the other little boy (in blue shirt) was having a fabulous time trying to run me over with his John Deere tractor. I escaped with my life and feet and with a few great shots, too. Ha! The baby was just delicious and so easy. We woke her up out of a deep sleep putting her on a blanket in the middle of the path. She just rolled over, looked up and started smiling!Img_0429sl Img_0465sl Img_0542sl

I had a great time and hope you love the pictures. Everything is in an album on the left.
