Family Portraits!

Do you remember when I had a clothing crisis because I scheduled a Family Portrait?

Well, after everyone and their dog stepped in with an opinion, I finally came up with this little ensemble.
{Thank you to everyone AND all their pooches for helping me choose outfits!}

Are you just dying to know how the pictures turned out?

I’m in LOVE. LURVE. LU–RRRRRVVVVVVVVVVVEEE.

  

Anyone who can make me look this good can obviously preform miracles. Because, let me just say, I.Never.Look.This.Good. Ever.

Cute Couples’ Alert. Be forewarned. These pictures may be too cute for your virgin eyes. View at your own risk.

  

Aaannnd Hell-oooooooooo, Stud-man! A 9 year old should not be this smokin’. Just sayin’.

  

This ones gonna be trouble. I tell you what. Truh-bull. She’s already got the eye-batting down to a T. And that tooth-less smile? Melt.

  

How on earth can I even narrow them down enough to pick which ones to print?

And these three people? We managed to capture the three loves of my life and their true genuine smiles and expressions. I love how Kinsey’s playing peek-a-boo behind her “da-da”. And my little man? The miniature clone of Ben? He looks so big and grown up. Where have the last 9 years gone? And of course Ben is looking quite dapper himself.

I think I’m going to have to print them all. There’s no other way around it. But for my mantle, I’m strongly considering this one:

I love how it’s so informal and casual. It perfectly reflects our fun silly laid-back family.

    I love a photographer who is creative and doesn’t stick you in those boring JC Penny poses.

    My favorite is the last group shot. The expression on your daughter’s face has so much personality! Just like her mom 🙂

    Those are so great! Don’t you just LOVE finding a photographer who can actually capture you/your family’s characters?! We have a photographer friend here in MN who takes our pictures and I must say, the only problem we have is not being able to narrow down our favorites! And I think you’ll agree that’s an ok problem to have. 🙂
