Adorable Family + A Pretty Fall Day =

Perfection!

Thats some good math skillz. Right? Its photographer math…

or not.

I knew the first time I met with Chrissy and her sweet girl I’d adore them. And then when I met the rest of the family… I was in love. 😉

What you see is what you get. I was giggling the whole time. The kids were such fun lively little humans with ideas ready to share.

Most of the time I ask mom or dad if they have a shot they REALLY REALLY want me to capture.

For example: Maggie always plays with my hair, I’d like a picture with maggie playing with my hair.

And more often then not, I also ask the kids if they have ideas.

Really, it’s to get the kids to loosen up relax and play with me a bit. Not all the time do those pictures make it into the final cut. My goal is to get them to play and have fun.

To let the kids know I care about them and what they think.

Well, I didn’t have to ask these kiddos. They had ideas and were ready to share!

It made my job super fun!

As we were heading back we noticed a lady running her horses and stopped to watch… Much to this little three year olds dismay we had to leave.

Being a horse girl myself, I felt her pain.

There was a little lip quiver and then a deep sigh… she knew whining wasn’t going to make things better.

And in that very moment…

We heard the lady call us,

“Do you wan to pet him? He’s friendly!”

My eyes got misty. I’m not going to lie.
