The McBride Family | 9.25.16

The McBride Family2016

I know I always talk about how much my clients mean to me...and that's true, but there is also something very special about a family that has been with you since the beginning! The McBrides aren't the only ones...so don't feel left out anyone...but really how awesome is it to be apart of a family tradition with people who truly value the importance of quality photography, family memories, and most of all the joy of being together! Timmy has gone from shy-guy, I don't want to do this, to doing the craziest things to make his sister laugh or get in a good pose for himself. Kaylee...oh sweet girl, she just takes a moment to warm up and then she's all full of smiles and the cutes puppy dog faces! One thing you notice from this shoot is a shot of their hands, it's something we do every year! It's become a kind of tradition, one that I look forward to and I know they do! 

I'll have to get in some throwback photos from our first shoot and see how we've progressed! Not only have the children grown, but so have I! Wow I can't wait to see them in the coming years...well actually I think I can wait...sometimes I just want to slow down time or stop it completely! And that is why we take pictures! Right?! 

Thank you Tim, Krista, Timmy & Kaylee!

When you have other "Mompreneur" friends you must support each other and their work! Well this is why my girls Lori and Lisa from Posh Peas and I joined forces to combine our two businesses for a little fun! Don't scold us either for making all our adorable children join in too! Obviously for them is was just fun and games with each other, not listening to respectable adults because hey...when there are six little ones with a Christmas tree, tepee, ornaments, swings and lots of  other distractions it's a lot of work, but also perfect for candid, real shots! 

I'm sure we'll be doing more of these little styled shoots in the future because my head is already churning with ideas so you'll definitely see more! In the meantime check out their boutique on Facebook!

6- My kids take awhile to warm up I don't think 15 minutes will be enough time? -No worries at all...some tips...make sure you warm them up to the IDEA that they will be going somewhere to do pictures, mention my name, show pictures, tell them it will be fun and quick. Maybe reward them with a special treat or activity. I'm very patient and even with a short amount of time it's the perfect amount of time!
