Family Fotography in the Fall

Yeah that's not how you really spell it, but I was just carried away. Speaking of photography, I had a family session with a great bunch from the church my hubby used to work at. They were great to work with, just hanging out together and enjoying the awesome fall weather we had last weekend. I managed to shoot around this giant belly I am sporting, and they didn't seem to mind my waddling around the entire session.


I usually drag my hubby along on sessions just for an assistant and an extra hand, but he was tied up at work so I flew solo this time. And speaking of solo, I also managed to knock the driver's side mirror off of our car during my travels, and we now have just the passenger side mirror. (This really has nothing to do with the session, except for the fact that I nearly caused 100 accidents going to and from the shoot. You don't realize how much you use those things until they're gone. Thankfully a replacement is on the way!)


This is one of the prettiest times of the year to do sessions (Spring is probably my fav, though), and I'm glad that I was able to do it before I become completely incapable of maneuvering around this child taking up my abdomen. I have two more sessions and a wedding before I completely call it quits until after Baby J's arrival. I must say I am looking forward to the break a bit...if for no other reason than I am dying of exhaustion, y'all. I think I need a nap just because I wrote this post. Or a cookie, that might do.

Thanks, Sinclair family, for letting me (and Baby J) take your good-looking family's pictures! It was fun! :)

The first shot is for Simplicity and Little Somethings, second for Communal Global, and Third for Happiness Project.

This is a beautiful set of images ... and yes, fall is such an amazing time of year to take photos! Blessings on your forth coming little one, as well!!
