I love meeting new families through my photography and I meet the most 'new' families this time of year! I always look forward to this part the most. I can't even begin to explain how much fun it is to get to know all of you. I love watching the interactions between family members and even getting caught up in the antics and friendly teasing myself!
This family was SO much fun. We actually met nearly a year ago at the March of Dimes Signature Chefs Auction . I'm a big believer in bringing healthy babies into this wonderful world, and the March of Dimes helps to do just that! I'd love to put a great word in for the March of Dimes 2009 Signature Chefs Auction coming up on November 14- follow the above link to find out more about it!
Paul, the dad of the family actually good naturedly 'fought' with another bidder on a package I donated for the silent auction. I love it when MEN realize the need for beautiful photography for their families and jump at the chance to own some. I'm so glad that he brought his family to me!
During our session, we laughed and talked and had so much fun together. Take a look! Mom and dad are on the left, their daughter and her husband are on the right.
These guys are SO cute together. He absolutely adores her and her parents. It's so much fun to see that! Look at the sparkle in her eyes...I love her expression!
Paul and his wife were wonderful. I was so touched by Paul's love for his wife and family. He adores his wife so much and was so loving and complimentary to her. He is so happy too! At one point I was trying to get a more serious (not smiling) shot from him, and quickly realized that Paul, without a smile on his face, was not truly Paul.
Judy didn't love getting her pictures taken, but you wouldn't know if from the gorgeous images we got of her!
Paul's family is so blessed to have him. I can't imagine a more loving husband and father.
Then they pulled out their University of Utah jerseys and the fun REALLY began! They are die-hard Ute fans and had to have some fun images in their Ute gear. I would LOVE to be sitting near them during a football or basketball game... they would be so much fun!
Finally, my favorite from the session... I love the tenderness, the love and the lighting!
Thank you so much for coming to me for your family portrait session! I loved working with you and I can't wait to see you again in the very near future!
These are beautiful images!! Lovely. :)
