Roberson Extended Family

What an absolutely wonderful family!  I had a blast working with this crew.  The weather was great and all the kids were so good!  I have known Leigh for about 8  years.  We were first introduced in a women’s networking group.  I randomly bump into many of the women from that group all around Fort […]

Johnson Family Portraits

I love photographing large families! I love families that take the time to get together and coordinate for a beautiful family portrait. While the hours leading up to the session may be stressful, once everyone is together, ready, and the funny jokes start everyone loosens up a bit. This family was absolutely fantastic to work […]

Smith Extended Family Portraits

What a fun portrait session!  It is always fun working with extended families to get a group shot, but this group was especially fun.  This family had members traveling from all over.  A wedding in Fort Wayne was the initial motivation to gather in this area.  However, they decided it was a perfect opportunity to […]

Meinika Family Portraits

I have known the Meinika/Trier Family for about 10 years.  Before all of us had kiddos of our own we would go on huge family vacations with The Meinika Family.  They are blessed to have a very talented photographer of their own among the family; that is why it was even more of an honor […]

Large Family Portraits

Each year my in laws have a reunion, The Marrs Family Reunion.  Every reunion there are old photos displayed and new photos taken.  The photos taken are always quick snap shots of multiple different groups.  We have never really organized a nice large family portrait.  It’s silly really…the hardest part is coordinating a date and […]

Sue’s Family Portraits

More people need to have portraits taken with extended family members.  I’m not going to pretend like planning a large family portrait is super easy, but I don’t think you will find one person that will say they regretted having that portrait with grandma, kids, grand-kids, and great grand-kids!  I look back at some of my own extended […]
