Family photos...torture for some, great fun for me. The Sevdalian family had not had a family portrait in a verrryyyy long time. I found this great location a month ago during a senior portrait session. It was only a matter of time before I found the right family to bring back the spot. I wanted to shoot at dusk to take advantage of Denver's cityscape in the background. The results were exactly what we wanted. This family is not used to hanging out without extreme emotions flaring at some point, so we made sure to include some wild shots at the end of the shoot. They photographed beautifully.

The Ringelmann Family

Last Saturday I spent some time with the Ringelmann's at their home. It has been quite some time since they have had family pictures. They wanted some new family photos to send to family back in South Africa. My son went with me to assist, I must admit he is responsible for the fabulous smiles they have in some of these shots. The family dog was a bit camera shy, didn't want to be a part of too many shots. We had about 8 inches of snow on the ground the day before this shoot, but most of it was gone. What a beautiful family, we had a lot of fun.
