one big {happy} family.

We don’t normally take on large family group shots, but when our past client Jenny asked us to do one to document her family for her Grandmother’s birthday, we obliged. Lucky us, all **26** of us, that we chose the ABSOLUTE HOTTEST day of the summer. At least it felt that way. But despite the hot and humid sticky mess, this family really did quite well, with very little complaining. When they first walked up we did have one family member make an offer of $100 in cash if we could get it done in 5 minutes!!

If you have followed the blog for a while you may remember Jenny and Marty’s ADORABLE little red head’s from last fall. They have gotten bigger, and are cuter than ever!!

Here’s the whole family:

Here’s their goofiness (some of you could use some goofiness lessons!!!)

Pretty Hannah with her Uncle.

Here is precious little Molly with her Mama.

Molly and Sophia.

My favorite shot of the day!! I LOVVVVE Sophia’s face so much as she “explains” how to properly blow bubbles to her little sister. (Have to say, it reminds me of myself a bit.) :)

luke and family {a lifestyle session}

Little Luke is not so little anymore. He turned 1 at the end of June and he is such a cutie!! I can’t believe I have been taking his photos for a year now. Time really goes by so quickly.

He is running (not walking) around everywhere. Like, he sits still for about .02 seconds, and then he is on to something new. So we spent most of the session running around after Luke, and trying to get him to chill for a moment! :) Check out this guy. Is he ALLLL boy or what???

with his mama….

with Daddy…

I love this shot. :)

I love this too!

he was off exploring in the flowers. :)

Then we decided to go over by the water. Luke’s Mama brought some cute rain boots and an umbrella. :)

He wasn’t sure what to think about the water, but two boots were one to many.

Back to dry clothes and heading out with Mama and Daddy.

Bye little Luke!! :)
