Mrs. Kathy & Family :)

This past Saturday started off with a beautiful morning and wonderful family! I had the pleasure of working with Mrs. Kathy and her family (who are so sweet and kind!). They selected her brother's house in the country on 10 acres for their session. It was a great spot with plenty of options (even more if we had not been blessed with so much rain the past week- I would have LOVED some tractor shots; maybe next time)

...In all there were 16 smiling faces. This session was special to me not only because I LOVE Mrs. Kathy and her family sooo much, but also because this was a time for them all to gather and just enjoy being together, take some pictures, have fun and eat some good southern cookin'. Thank you everyone so much for treating me like one of your own and being such a pleasure to work with- what a way to start a morning right!

Enjoy the sneak peaks of how the images turned out...

I liked this one a lot because it reminds me of a picture my Mom has of her great-uncle and his family sitting on thier front porch in the late 1800's (I think). This is somewhat of a modern twist on it that is a little less traditional but still timeless. I hope they will enjoy it for many years to come!The really fun thing about this shoot was that after the large group shots, we did mini family and couple sessions. The first one was actually taken on a little break of Mrs. Kathy and her youngest daughter, Charlee and the second one is Charlee and her beau, Nate (and Reese, of course) ...stay tuned for more sneak peaks like these ;)

Here are a some more favorites that have come along in the editing process, enjoy!

...and here's the famous Reese, who Hudson has tried to barter a trade with Charlee in exchange for his little brother, Noah...but called it off when he could not negotiate Noah coming back after a day but Reese staying with him (what a sweet big brother!)

...Hudson and Noah had a blast when they came back to help pack up all the gear...chasing Reese and climbing fences (who knew that only 10 minutes could result in so much fun and dirt!)...the promise of coming back for four wheeler rides and roasting marshmallows was the only peaceful way to get them back in the truck!
