The first weekend in November, we had a fall family photo session to take pictures to use for our Christmas cards. Lauren was amazingly patient with two little boys who refused to take naps that day & ended up in sour moods. Not only did she extend our 45 minute session to almost an hour and a half, but she also managed to get some really nice shots.
I didn't know it at the time, but this would be the last time that we would pose as a family of four. It makes these photos incredibly special to me & I know they'll be special to our boys one day.
The two family shots we used for our Christmas cards:
I'm always the one behind the camera, so having shots of me and the boys together melts my heart.
And one last sweet shot of baby Jack... I wish I'd gotten a few more of Liam but he was go! go! go!
I know that money will be tight when I'm on my own, but I hope to be able to splurge and capture my growing boys each fall. Next year's photos will be a special way to show how much we've all changed.
What beautiful memories for you AND your boys. I'm so glad you have these.
