Capturing my family as they grow

Getting family portraits done is a mega undertaking. To get everyone in the right mood and willing to participate is not always an easy task. One thing that I appreciate as a photographer is to be able to get quality photos of my family as we live our daily lives. My wife has her birthday this week and I wanted to gift her a collage wall photo, among other things, of our two youngest children. We snuck out of the house, my daughter even covered for us as mom saw us on the doorbell and asked where we were going, and got a little hike in for some pictures in our beautiful state. My favorite picture from the day is the two of them in the trees and that was their idea for a picture. Enjoy the days as they grow too fast.
