Lauren Natalie PhotoShoot

When Lauren, my world traveling, picture taking friend, and I were chatting about taking pictures, I mostly just wanted to hang out with her, but she brought her camera, too!  So fun.  She had just returned from Ethiopia with a Luis Palau trip, just in time to see us!  What I love about the progression of these photos is that they start out like most photo shoots; civil children, well posed, normal behavior.  But you see, she opted to stay for dinner and after, so she was able to get some pretty good shots of the normal happenings around here.  And the chickens found their way into a few of the pictures, as well.

Thank you Lauren, love them!

So we start:

Then she told the kids to play, too cute.

We busted out the ‘bobby pops,’  and when you look deep into their eyes, their sheer joy should give you pity in your hearts for them that their parents don’t give these poor children sugar often.

    Such adorable pictures. How fun to have this “season” captured so beautifully.

    Yeah, do your kids go crazy after dinner? It’s like they get some super-human energy! It’s crazy and FUN!! The pictures, all of them, are amazing and beautiful. They say simply ‘family’. My favorite though, is the one of just you and Maria, looking at each other with the sweetest knowing smiles.

    Fabulous pictures of a fabulous family.

    Wow, you got so many good ones! I have an 8 month old and a 3 year old, and if we get ONE frame-able picture from a session, I am happy. Now you will have to make the hard decision of which ones to put on your walls!

    Beautiful family Amy and Andrew!
