I’ve photographed these kids before, and it was so fun to see how much they’ve grown since last time! 🙂
Kisses from her three older siblings? No sir. Not having any of that!
Loving brothers…
What probably happens most of the time… 😉
Oh to be able to do this again… Yoga, anyone?
Wow! Two in one day! Maybe I am on a roll! 🙂
This is one of those “Real-Life” shots I love… You can totally tell they are all trying to escape… 🙂
All the grandchildren!
Yet another Real-World shot. And I love it. What kind of little boy sits still anyways? 🙂
I adore this family. Not only is that beautiful woman my sister, but the kids are just adorable! And Mike’s not too bad either. 😉 We met this day just before a huge storm hit, so the lighting was particularly unusual, but a lot of fun. Downside to pre-storm clouds, though, is the wind. But we made it work! I got a lot of what I like to call “Real Life” pictures, which often end up being my favorites! They’re the last couple in the series. Enjoy! 🙂
Oops. Looks like I stuck this RealLife one (below)Â in early! I love love love it.
Here’s Gregory trying to get Isaac to smile…
This one makes me laugh every time. Love it.
Here are the RealLife shots! First up, a classic: Mom with the goldfish crackers, and the two-year-old off doing their own thing…
RealLife: Sometimes wind decides to be part of the family.
RealLife: Hauling away the obstinate two-year-old.
RealLife: Sometimes that same obstinate two-year-old can look so cute and innocent in the very moment he’s being hauled away by his frustrated mother. Love it, though.
Thank you, R Family for spending the afternoon with me!
Every two years my dad’s side of the family has a huge reunion. This year I was designated to take pictures of the family groups, and it was a lot of fun! Relatively painless… 🙂 (Pun not intended, but since I left it in, I suppose it kind of is!) Rather than post them all individually I’m doing it gallery-style so that those who want to look through them all can! Just click on the thumbnails to view them full size! The captions refer to the picture located above them.
The reunion was a lot of fun! We went to Reid Ranch in Fruitland, Utah. Fun fact: The food inspection certificate in the cafeteria listed the address of Reid Ranch as “15 miles east of the Fruitland store.” Did anyone else notice? There were lots of activities for the families–paddle boats, archery, horseback riding, pony rides for the kids, volleyball, horseshoes, etc. And I rather enjoyed their snow cones. 🙂 Here are some shots I got of the activities. They are pretty much limited to volleyball and pony rides, so sorry to those of you who were off doing other activities!
My dad’s family is notorious for their volleyball skills. 🙂 I like to watch. Oh yeah. And take pictures.
This shot (below) is worthy of an explanation. That’s my brother-in-law spiking the ball, and the blocker in the yellow shirt is my little brother. My little brother blocked this spike with his face–and scored a point for his team in doing so. Holla. If I saw Mike getting ready to spike a volleyball in my direction looking that angry I would curl up in a little ball and cry! 🙂 Zach must be fearless.
Here’s Gregory wishing he was playing volleyball. He kept Grandpa’s hat safe, though–a very important job!
Some of the equipment was a little large…
This last image is one of my favorites from the whole reunion–THE STAREDOWN.
For all you Blackhams looking at these, if you would like your family picture(s) emailed to you, please comment and leave an email address, and let me know what you would like. (aka, just your smaller family, the big group picture, large family picture, horse pictures of your kids, etc.) I have tons of volleyball pictures that I didn’t put up here, but I put at least one shot of each of the kids I got on the pony rides. Just let me know what you’d like! If any of you want ALL the pictures, my mom is getting a disc ready to mail to Aunt Pam with all the pictures I took, and the ones that she took. I’m not exactly sure where it goes from there…
