the mcni communion

This good looking bunch I know well. The dad is John’s ‘work wife’, his partner in their lawfirm. I did their oldest’s communion a few years back so you may remember them too. I can’t get over how big their youngest got and how much more chatty he was with me this year. So fun!

The oldest is a great kid and I liked him even more cause he was actually asking me to take his picture! When my boys get a hold of him this summer, I’m sure they’re going to put the quash on that real fast! Oh, and K? Loved the tie!

How you doin’?

The dad is the only other person I know in the world who is as unsmiley as John. He can even do the ‘laugh without smiling’ thing that John does. They are the perfect match. And tried as I did I could not get him to smile. Not once. He even laughed at one of my jokes, but without smiling. I love the shot where they are helping him smile. Really, it didn’t help. (I still don’t know if the man has teeth. I mean, I assume he does but cannot verify that from personal experience or anything.) The only thing that I have ever seen make him sorta smile is Timmy. And I had Timmy workin hard at the party to get him to laugh- it was close a few times. I think if I hadn’t had the camera, it might’ve worked.

The one on the right was as close as I got.

Lots of family and friends on hand to help celebrate J’s big day.

Thanks for inviting us (its always fun being the guest and the photographer!)- we had a great time!
