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 […]

Two rambunctious boys and one on the way…this family maternity portrait session was packed full of laughs, bribes, and good times.  Our outdoor portrait session got rained out, but we made the most of an indoor session and captured some great candid portraits of the Kaler family.  Even though this is Becca’s third pregnancy, she […]
