Myself and some fellow fab photographers are continuing another year of our Life Stories Project.
Life Stories Project- what’s that? See MONTH 1 for the full story.
The gist of the project, is myself along with some fellow photographers are creating a monthly photo project- of our OWN children.
So….as a photographer, the task of creating your own personal family holiday card is always a little stressful. You want it to be great, and at the same time, it all takes place during the busiest, craziest time of year for our business. So each year, I usually have a few ideas in the back of my head, and then see what I have time for…this year, the session actually took place, on a September evening, when I had a last minute cancelation during gorgeous peak fall color and the weather was AMAZING- so with only a few hours notice, I pulled some clothes from the kids’ closets and took them “our secret place” as they like to call it- and let them romp and play, and they kindly posed when asked, for some photos.
This session was my back-up plan- my “in case I get too busy to photograph them later” ….. BUT I ended up loving the images so much, that I knew I wouldn’t need to reshoot later on. Which is good, because as predicted it got crazy busy and I barely got these done and mailed before the holidays as it was, even though I photographed them 2months earlier!
So I present to you, our 2012 holiday card- and my super cute kids

The inside of the card- it’s a die cut card, a style I really love and thought would be perfect:
