Families with older kids have such a different and fun dynamic when compared to the little ones. Parents and kids still joke and laugh, but the kids can help pose themselves, assist when the dog goes rogue, and follow directions! This family was not only delightful, they were so full of grace. When they asked about scheduling a session, I had ONE day free - but the catch was that I didn’t have childcare that afternoon, so I’d need to bring my kids. Well, they were even great with my wild ones!

Laughter and leaves abounded, the girls were absolutely stunning, and mom and dad were so fun!

And the dog liked me until I took his close up in a Santa hat. After that, we weren’t on great terms. He’s adorable, though.
