On Saturday, we met K bright and early for a family photoshoot. It was very grey outside, so we were glad for bright blue eyes and pretty green grass. I have had an idea in mind for this shoot for months – I knew I either wanted pics of us waist deep in rye grass or lying on a blanket in a pile. Random right? When K sent me these sneaks this morning I knew I couldn’t make a decision. I need help, people!
1. Conceptually, this is what I had in mind. I love that it isn’t “too” posed and I LOVE the grass. What I don’t love? My face.
2. Again, love this and everyone in it. But me. Why am I so weird looking here? I don’t think that even looks like me.
3. Then the sun started peaking out, my necklace broke {Ella is playing with the beads here} and the girls got happy. I love this one. Love. I look like myself and everyone is smiling and cooperating. My only problem here is that I’m letting go of this image in my head of the grass in front of us.
4. The laying a pile picture. I pretty much love everything about this. It is casual and un-posed. We were just playing and laughing because Sophie refused to cooperate. She was crawling over my shoulder after a pile of rocks just outside the frame of this photo. We were having so much fun here {even SD} and it shows. Is it weird that you can’t see his face? Would you love this hanging in your house?
K is sending me a disk with a bazillion images to choose from before I purchase a canvas, but she sent me these because she knew they were what I was looking for. Any suggestions, friends?
