Family Photos 2012

We have never taken a professional family photograph.

I once took a photo at Sears with my boy Charlie when

he was 2 but that's about the extent of it. As a photographer,

I have always loved non-posed, natural shots more than

stiff, fake smiles and awkward positioning...

We decided maybe it was time to try to get all of us together in one photo.

I set my timer and placed all of them and ran like a fool to place myself and not look weird.

We got a few decent shots that I'm pretty happy with...

And finally, all 5 of us.

Those 3 babies are amazing little people.

They are funny, and smart, and interesting.

Someone recently told me that they're in love with my kids

and that they fall harder every single day. If that's not the way

straight to a mama's heart, then I don't know what is...
