this family had
fun
written all over them
as soon as our eyes met
they did everything I asked and more
and
made me smile
during the entire shoot
the kids had their own little inside jokes
that only siblings share
and
mom and dad
played right along
acting like kids themselves when I threw out things like
"climb"
"lift"
and
"jump"
and
not once
while I was hanging onto tree branches for balance
and
climbing rocks myself
did they give me a look like
"wow, this chic is crazy...where did she come from ?"
~~
thanks to all of you who told me this would be a great shoot
as always

ReplyDeleteYay!!! So glad it went soooo well! I love all of these shots!
ReplyDeleteThe color coordination pulled them together nicely - but you brought it to a rolicking level of joyfulness and freshness - great job!
ReplyDeleteThey look so joyful. Great shots. I love the one with them all jumping.
ReplyDeleteso so glad it went well...doing a happy dance for you!
ReplyDeleteSee what I mean when the group wears the same colors? You end up looking at the faces and the expressions and the environment that the photog is so smart to consider! You ROCK! Get it, rock, the wall, get it? I knew you would!
ReplyDeleteHi Beth
ReplyDeleteHolly is right about the same coloured attire, at first I thought that it was a bit spivy and then saw that it brought you to focus on their faces and the setting, these are great and they should be very happy.
I particularly like the 3 chn, there is a narrative there too with the dividing wall, the rocks, the 2 different fields and the tree of life...well done
Happy Days
I knew you would take great shots! They seem like a lot of fun!
ReplyDeleteThey are going to be over the moon with these photos. Beautiful!
ReplyDeletethese turned out great, girl!
ReplyDeletei love the color of the shirts against the grass.
what a sweet and joyful family ! You caught it all, beth ! Awesome job !
ReplyDeleteThose are some memorable & fun family pictures to cherish for years to come! I would much rather a photoshoot like that compared to a stuffy one in front of some weird beige-blue-greenish screen.
ReplyDeleteCaptures the essence of this fun family completely!
Kudos to you, friend!
What GREAT subjects! And you got terrific images to boot!
ReplyDeleteSo, it wasn't The Osmonds afer all? Shucks!! But were you in blue and beige too?
ReplyDeleteYou get better and better. I keep saying it. Better and better.
