Family Pictures!

There's a project that I've been wanting to do in our living room, and it requires about 9 pictures to do it.  I want to use pictures of our family, but the problem is that we haven't done family pictures since last August.  I also didn't want to go to a studio to get them done because it's just so stiff looking (which is fine - for certain things).  I wanted some fun, cute, outdoor pictures with LOTS of color.

I called my brother-in-law, Gino, and asked him if he would come sometime soon and take some for us.  He's a wonderful photographer who did our maternity pictures (I wasn't blogging back then, so I can't link it), and some of my all time favorite pictures of LL.  We went to our friends' (Clint and Sarah) pecan orchard to take the pictures.  I told Gino when he edited them that I wanted them SUPER saturated with color.  I wanted them to be as bright and colorful as possible - he did a GREAT job and did exactly what I wanted.  Thanks, Gino!!  Keep in mind when looking at these (1) it is crazy hard to keep a 2 year old in one place to take pictures, and (2) no matter how early you go outside, July in south Georgia is absolutely MISERABLY hot.

Here are my favorites from the shoot!

He did an AWESOME job at capturing her personality in this one.  This is totally my child!

I know some of you are going to ask - no, my shirt is not that cool.  It's actually just a plain shirt - the cool part is actually a necklace that I got from etsy!

I love to see how much LL loves her Daddy.
