Hey! My Christmas cards have most likely made their way to their final destinations so I can finally share the fun photos from our photo shoot with Simone.
{most of which you have already seen plastered all over the blog!}
Originally I envisioned sun-drenched autumn photos with tan kids and fall leaves.
~But~
By the time I got my act together and scheduled the session, it was cold and the forecast called for SNOW!!!
I had a slight panic the night before
{wet shoes, red noses, whiny kids, cold hands...}
but Simone reassured me that all would turn out fantastic and she was soo right!
I love how unique these photos are.
The snow makes them amazing!!
Look at my cute kiddos!
This Narnia-like photo is my favourite!
The girls:)

Cait played shy for her close up.

Love.
A big family hug.
My love!
In case you are thinking that your family hates getting their pictures taken and mine loves it, here's my dose of reality...
As we were getting out of the truck Mike instructed the kids "Do exactly what she says so we can get this over with as quickly as possible"
{no offense to Simone of course:)}
I am not sure why men are not into pictures but ever since our wedding day (and the hours of photos he endured) I have known that it is an act of love when Mike willingly agrees to a photo shoot:)
{Thanks honey!}
I am working on a post with some tips for planning a fabulous family photo complete with a mini tutorial, color scheme thoughts and some prop ideas.
Does your family enjoy photos as much as you do?
Or is it just me fighting the masses to get a pretty pic?
