{ Happy 50th Anniversary! }
I am so glad we were able to make this photo session happen.
Becky contacted me back in September to see if I was available "in December". It was quite the time frame, but actual date was unknown for a while because the family was waiting to find out when Stephen Jr. was coming home from deployment; Stephen is in the USNavy.
Finally after countless emails and meeting at neighbor's houses and along the street while walking dogs & boys, we were able to get a date and a time and gather their family of 14 for an extended family photo session ..... and to celebrate Becky's parents Golden Wedding Anniversary coming up in a few weeks.
My cheeks seriously hurt from laughing & smiling so much with this fun (dare, I say loud and completely adoring?!) family. There were old-family jokes flying back &forth, encouragement, ringing cell phones, laughs and a true love of family you could just feel. It was a lot of fun --- I have MANY pictures to edit, but wanted to share a few preview images. I always get so antsy to see photos after a session I just have to tease share a few.
Happy Holidays!!
What a true pleasure it was! After all the planning and crossing fingers about everyone making it, well, it finally happened. Yes, our family is LOUD and it didn't take long for Amy to discover this : ).
ReplyDeleteWe are so happy you were able to accommodate us on a week night during the week of Christmas, of all weeks. Thanks so much! We can't wait to see the rest : )
