It totally paid off!!!

Cousins..nothing better! {woodstock, ON portrait photogapher}

Some of my best childhood memories are of times I spent with my cousins!  We all lived close together so we had ‘parties’ quite often! :)   Sunday afternoons we usually spent playing in someones basement, board games, making things, make belief…those were great memories!

I loved this ‘cousin’ session!  Early morning (I’m not sure how they made a 9am appointment with these young kids! :) ), out at the park…it was a bit ‘interesting’ but it all came together and I love the results!

Enjoy!

Beautiful! {woodstock, on portrait photographer}

These animals are so beautiful!  Having them charge around you in a group of 14 only an arms length away was breathtaking!  You can feel the POWER in their legs as they gallop around!
I LOVED this assignment!!!  It was out of my ‘norm’ but that’s how we grow, right?

Rain, Rain GO AWAY! {woodstock ,ON portriat photographer}

Well, we could have had nicer weather for this session! :(   We decided to go ahead {under cover} because this is the only time the whole family will be home until Christmas!!  (I’m having a hard time sending my kids to school for hours each day, I can’t imagine not seeing them till Christmas!)

Typical family veranda pose!
