The Minners and their extended family invited me to spend part of an afternoon with them over Thanksgiving weekend while they had family in town. It ended up being such a beautiful November day, we spent the entire session outside – taking pictures by their barns, in front of the old truck, and most of all by the bonfire in their adorably re-purposed corn crib.
Beth had selected special mugs for each member of the family, and every one of them was so fun! Hot chocolate was shared (along with stories from Grandpa), and the whipped cream and marshmallows were enjoyed all by themselves. 😉
The three kids in this session were fantastic – the oldest was, hands down, the most cooperative guy I’ve photographed for a family session; and the two younger ones started out shy but brought lots of mischief and grins by the end! (I even got a snowball thrown at me. I felt so honored.)
I loved that we were able to include three generations in this family shoot, as well as having enough time to relax and give the kiddos an opportunity to get comfortable. Keep an eye out for those special great grandma pictures as you look through these!
