The Bartons

You might remember this cute little boy from a few sessions earlier... Noah and his mom decided they should have some pictures with the whole family, including dad this time.  The Barton's are so fun to take pictures of and they are such a beautiful family- it's hard to take a bad picture.  These were taken at the current hot spot, Tower Grove's "The Ruins".  It was a beautiful fall day.  It was cool and kinda windy, but the trees were beautiful oranges and reds and yellows.  I really enjoyed taking their pictures and had a great time going through them and editing.  They were all so great I wanted to edit them all.  I think I'm starting to get a hang of this photography thing.

I love this.

Olmsted Family

 Courtney emailed me and asked me if I'd like the challenge of photographing a family of 8 (6 kids between the ages of 5-9).  And I accepted.  I was a little nervous because getting everyone to look with their eyes open and smiling all at once seemed like a challenge and 6 kids is a lot.... But the Olmsted family was picture perfect.  They all worked together and were so well-behaved.  It was a beautiful Sunday afternoon, the sun was a little bright, but I think we got a lot of great family shots out of it.
