Once upon a time, two little girls were making mud pies, learning to ride their bikes, and dumping baby powder on the wooden stairs in their home. This was my lifetime friend Kari and myself. Trouble with a capitol 'T'. We went to school together our entire lives and are still the best of friends. Do I love taking her family portraits? Absolutely! And we always have fun doing it.
Here's a shot that I was trying to get of Kari and her husband, Jason, when Chelsea ran up to be silly and it turned into one of those super awesome unplanned kind of shots. We had the other kids join them, and with everyone facing their matriarch, this is one of my favorite family shots ever.
Those unplanned shots are the ones that I believe always turn out the best. And while Emma was waiting for us to get it together, we saw her sitting by the "crick" (it's cool, we're from Rushville).
The more natural the emotion the better. That's what it's really all about. Jason got Conner rolling while I was taking pics of the two of them. This among the faves..
Kari wanted a photo of all of the kids sitting on a rock in the middle of these flowers. Once Chelsea fell off said rock, is when her pics became fantastic!
Kari and Jason's couple photos may have been my favorites overall, and this trick is trendy, but you've got to admit, this is a great photo.
Here are a couple more of Emma and Conner I chose to add to the blog because I think they are great.
And let's finish with how Jason has a way of making his kids laugh or cringe, or whatever Chelsea is doing here! LOL! And I'm sure she's glad I added it to the blog. Ha!
HaHaHaHa!! I laugh every time I look at this! Enjoy!
