Family Photos 2010

I was waiting until I posted about our Christmas Cards (they're AWESOME!) before I showed off our recent family pictures.  This top one is my favorite (obviously, since I picked it for the card) but we had some fun ones...

It was hard doing pics of my own kids - when I shoot other families, and the kids don't know me, they tend to listen more (what is with kids minding strangers but ignoring their own parents?!)- - but I got this good one:

And some good individual shots:

This one was a little out-of-focus, but I think the Sunshine Look hides it well:

This was a good pic too - it's more traditional and I wanted something a little different, which is why I like that top one better - but this was a contender!

I love doing a jumping picture during photo sessions - some work, some don't - - -

And this was towards the end of the shoot, when the light was leaving - -
