Salow, Chesnut & Hays Families

Ahh! LOVED this shoot! I can't wait for these guys to see these images :) I had so much fun with these families! Annnnd I think the kiddos were the most well-behaved ones to date! When Kerri {who owns Kerri Photography in Des Moines-- check out her work!} emailed me about possibly shooting her family as a gift to her mom, I just knew I couldn't turn this opportunity down, knowing they would be a great group to shoot-- and they didn't let me down!! We caught the tail end of the fall leaves, but ended up with a GORGEOUS evening to photograph (a photographer's dream actually... cover cast, no wind, & clean crisp air!) and these guys were constantly making cracking me up and you can just feel the love everyone had for one another oozing from every frame! Family is such an amazing thing, and I am so blessed to capture it behind the lens and share it with these tight knit families!! I hope that this gift to Mae was a gift she and the others will cherish for many years to come, and I absolutely can not wait to see which one she chooses to place above her fireplace! :) Enjoy!
