Grace {Almost 1}, Ben {Almost 3}, Will {5} and Family

This completely adorable family is good friends of ours and actually moved back to ND at the same time as us!  We hang out with the mom and children during the day sometimes and our kids seem to get along great.  I have loved getting to know their children and looking forward to many more memories throughout the years.

We had this shoot on a very chilly evening so we worked fast!  North Dakota winters are starting to creep up on us and it's a little sad because they are brutal here - oh and that wind...I think that's the worst part!  So things will be calming down around here in a few weeks as it will start to be too cold to do outdoor shoots, but bring on the babies and newborns for indoor shoots!

This family was one of my first clients was back when I started this photography journey and guess what - I get to continue taking their photos even after our move to North Dakota!  They also moved back to ND at the same time as us, and although they live in a city a few hours away, they still traveled to me to do photos this year.  Unfortunately the father was unable to come to photos this time so we just focused on the children (and I made the mother get in some shots at the end too).  It has been so fun watching both of these adorable kids grow up over the years and I am looking forward to continue seeing them.  :)

This family was SO fun to photograph.  Sure, they were energetic and silly little girls, but I am used to that and I really enjoy seeing each child's personality shine at sessions.  We lucked out with a beautiful night and beautiful light (and beautiful family) and this ended up being one of my favorite sessions I have ever done.

I met the mother of this family while picking up my son from his first day of Kindergarten and we realized that we live only about a block from each other! I would love to get our children to know each other because I just know they would all get along great.  It was so awesome meeting all of you and I look forward to seeing you more in the neighborhood!
