Erickson Family Reunion

Family Reunions can be a bit stressful to photograph. Especially when I don't know anyone's names. I find myself yelling, "Hey you with the blue shirt." Turns out half the people are in a blue shirt. Such is life. However, this might be the easiest family reunion photo session ever. My type of family. We took a bunch of shots of the big family and then did a few individual families. I also loved that we had enough time to get individual shots of the kids. Such a great way to freeze this stage in their life. I have a few more individual families to finish up, but I'll be sharing them here soon!

Gardner Family

One of my favorite parts of taking pictures have been all the fun new people I have been able to meet. The Gardner family is no exception. I am so glad they brought their family dog. I had never photographed a family with their pet before. How about getting a one year old and a dog to look at the camera. We had such a great time and even got all our shots in before their little tyke froze.

Baby Olivia

It seems like yesterday that me and baby Olivia's mom were playing the clarinet in the 6th grade band. I'm pretty sure we both quit after that year, but have shared countless memories since. When I showed up at Alyse's parents it felt like I was picking her up for a High School football game. Except someone left us with a baby to take care of. I'm only joking, but I was so happy to take pictures of this cute girl. I love her and her mom more than words can say!

Mayzi

Oh Miss Mayzi! Those big blue eyes and that dark hair. It was one cold fall day and this girl just walked around and every once in awhile gave us a quick grin, never once letting the forest or cold stop her. I'm so happy I could take her photo's. In just a few months I hope to get the whole family in a few shots! Can't wait!
