It has been ages since we have taken photographs of the children, so yesterday I decided on a whim to snap a few. The last time we went to Sears for pictures, Sportster was about 2 and Sister was about 6 months and it.was.awful so we decided never to recreate that experience. Every 6 months or so I try to do a little photo shoot at home to capture their stages and personalities. So far we've been happy with this decision and as a side benefit we've saved a lot of money. On the downside, you still have to make time to make it happen and we've neglected this opportunity for far too long. But with Christmas fast-approaching it was high-time to make it happen. Here are some of my favorites. Grandma & Nana, these are coming to you so if you want to be surprised come Christmas, look away now.
Many thanks to our friend who blessed us with a portrait lens many months ago. It seems like the faces turned out more crisp with it. We just took these on our front porch and in our stairway to simplify the experience.
I still need to work on getting all three of them to look and smile at the same time, but this was a rather successful attempt.

Rachel...wow! Yea, that second one is gorgeous! Your kids are darling and you're really making good use out of your equipment and skill.
speaking of, we need to find a time to get pictures of all of you, so mom can be in the pictures. Email/call me to get a time.
These pictures are so great! Kelly
