A yearly birthday photo shoot is now a tradition! I kick-started this idea last year in October when these two boys had their birthdays' and here we are on year two!
A friend of mine asked me to take their family photos at Murray's parents' farm this year and I decided I would "practice" with my own kids. We made an afternoon of it. I packed a picnic, my camera, a change of clothes, and a comb and we headed to Gradma's straight away after I picked up Corbin from preschool. The weather was GORGEOUS. The boys had a ball playing outside, having our picnic, and saying hi to gradma. I changed their clothes, freshened up their hair, and took pictures one handed while holding baby Charlotte :-) You have to do what you have to do, right?! I imagined getting more of the scenery in the background, but the boys were wanting to stand by this tree trunk so that is what we did! I absolutely love these. And I LOVE my BIG "little" boys.
I am planning on playing around with different scenery options when I do Kasen's THIRTEEN (!) year old photo shoot hopefully this weekend. And we can do it when the lighting is more ideal (right before sunset).
I have to say, even though we took these photos during the worst possible time of day for lighting (mid-day), I really think they turned out great!
