After I plan the outfits and pick a location, our holiday card each year has a mind of its own. So much is unpredictable during a photo session whether I am the photographer or we hire a professional. The lessons Kyle and I have learned is to pack snacks, and have fun. Let the kids be kids and to love their frowns and forced smile. On the opposite spectrum also to be totally grateful if the camera catches them in a totally genuine demeanor. I love the entire process. Both the funny blooper pictures and the and ones that ed up on the holiday cards are apart of the entire making of the holiday card experience.
Above Elise was saying "uppie uppie" to Kyle. Her 'guys" wore rain boots to tramp around Uncle Heath's property so she was not wearing fancy shoes either.

" pirate smile"
Arrrr!
I could not figure out what was wrong with Aidan during the shoot.
WE just had lunch and he was plying on the swing so happily minutes ago.
I guess one he sat down Aidan had time to realize he was hungry.
Crankiness is more bearable on a cute outfit.
Aidan found the mugs of hot chocolate.
Wood peg swing.
Entertainment for hours.
