I met up with this fun family over the weekend to do some photos at Lindley Park. We had a gloriously sunny afternoon and combined with the piles of snow still on the ground from the dumping we had late last week, it was a great setting for some beautiful photos.
When booking their session, Mom told me that they had a dog and a new puppy that they wanted to include in the photos. I was a bit nervous. . . getting kids and animals, especially a puppy, to cooperate could have been quite the challenge. But the kids and the dogs were great!
Brother and sister were so sweet. . . we were all impressed when he announced that he actually wanted to cozy up with his big sis to pose for me!
Since we knew it would be a chilly afternoon, the plan was to take jackets off for a few minutes, snap some photos, put them on to warm up again and change location, take them off for a few more pictures, and on and on. They looked so cute and coordinated in their outer wear, though, that we nearly forgot to get any without the coats on. Mom commented to me that she had picked their shirts and sweaters to match the colors in their house (very smart, Mama!) so their pictures will fit right in with the decor. I’m glad we did ditch the coats for a few minutes and I hope that they’ll decide one of these looks great nicely displayed in their family room!
Thanks for braving the cold on a beautiful afternoon!
Oh, Amy! I love, love the snowy backdrop- what beautiful images
Best wishes in your new venture 
What a beautiful family! And luck to have such a fantastic photographer. =)
