I had an incredible time photographing this beautiful family, just outside of Milwaukee in Menomonee Falls… this mom is such a truly incredible mom. Her daughter broke her arm on the 2nd day of school, but we went forward with our photography session as scheduled… it says a lot about a mom when they want to capture the real stuff and not need it to be perfectly perfect. This mom loves her kids so much, accepts that things happen, life goes on, and it all adds up to an incredible, sweet, amazing family. Enjoy the images.
A few before dad got home from work…
Dad got home and pulled in the driveway to be waved down and met us in the “field” (aka: empty lot) across the street from their beautiful home :) Look at this joy… this is the real stuff.
And ahhh, the pressure for the perfect family portrait for holiday cards… because *this* mom loves the interactions, the natural smiles, the real stuff, I think she’d be happy using one of many, but here is our attempt an hour in, for the one “smiling and looking” picture!
