Have you ever thought “it would be so great to get ALL of the family in photos,” but then the work of coordinating it just put you off from trying to schedule it? I have to say, in the last few years I have been able to do a handful of multi-generational family sessions and I have come to value them so much. I know it’s a logistical struggle to even think of a session like this for many families. Honestly, this family I am sharing with you today, it was the first time in 2 years they had all been together due to distance! I am so glad they called me to schedule this session over the holiday break and I am SURE they will value these photos for years to come!

Also, this is obvious but it is such a BEAUTIFUL family!!! I truly had to stop myself from pinching cheeks of a few of these kiddos!!!

The whole family with spouses, kids and grandparents!

These twin sisters just made me smile :)

I mean seriously, is there anything cuter than a kindergartner with a freshly lost tooth?!

If you have followed me or my life for any amount of time, you know that I love to blog but also it's the first thing to drop when priorities shift. I know there's a million reasons that this isn't smart for business but I also know I am one mom, and a very human one at that. Every day I am sifting through priorities to tackle what has to be done, what should be done and what can potentially wait for another day. Today I am again home with a toddler and a sick coughing kindergartener. This is not exactly a great combination for productivity but at the same time I know that some things must get accomplished if I am going to strive to have a great client experience. I am in the midst of editing, ordering and you guessed it....prepping over due blog posts!

Hopefully this sweet summer session will have you feeling the warmth on this chilly morning! Better late than never right? I can't say enough how much I have LOVED the multi-generational photo sessions I have been a part of this year. For some reason this year, I have had a much bigger group of large family sessions. I adore them because they are an absolute treasure for a family to have!

Here's to Emerald Isle, North Carolina...I miss your warmth, your sun, your ocean and palm trees...can't wait to see you again next year! These are just a FEW favorites from this fun session...

Hope this Wednesday has your spirits bright!
