Family Pictures

"Stop making that face, Lia!"
"Keian sit still!"
"Everyone smile! No, not like THAT!"
"Keian sit still!"
"Everyone smile! No, not like THAT!"
These were phrases heard repeatedly during our photo session at the Kraft's house on Wednesday.
Family pictures for a large family can easily reach nightmare proportions. You have no idea how thankful I am Lynnette has a large family and isn't easily irritated by the antics of 5 children.
Lynnette is editing frantically and sending them as she does. It is so fun to open each email from her! They are all so fun and beautiful! (However, I do think I might ask her to "edit" about 20 pounds off of me! lol)
I wanted to share with all of you some of the photos I received last night...

More to come!

These are beautiful. I esp like the one of you leaning on your hubby with that beautiful big smile on your face. You can tell you two really love one another!
Oh, I LOVE these pics! I, too, love the one of you and your husband. Can't wait to see more!
I can relate to picture nightmares. lol I have 4 boys!
The ones of you and your hubby are just adorable. You have a beautiful smile Amy.
Great pictures! I don't usually have a photographer take the pictures because it stresses me out too much. I also have a hard time scheduling the perfect shot. when I get a great pic of my kids it usually just works out. You know, one of those moments no one has a runny nose and no one is grouchy and no one is covered in stains (this is why I don't have very many pictures of my kids). I can't wait to capture them in their Holiday clothes.
Beautiful pictures of a beautiful family!!
ITA with pp that the one with you leaning on your husband is great! We have an appt for pictures next Thursday and I'm dreading it! These will be our first professional pics as a family and frankly, I'm not optimistic! But after looking at your first photo, I'm a little encouraged! Since the camera captures memories of our time now, I have a week to talk the perfectionist woman in me down and accept whatever "memory" the camera catches. Either way, it's gonna capture us at this point ya know? We'll look back and either love this season or hate it, but it's part of our story. Great photos!! Also, YOU LOOK AWESOME and your smile is infectious!!
I'm with Julie, love the huge happy smile with your Hubby! They're all great!
LOVE that first one of you and your sweetheart!! Can't wait to see them all...
It's been so long since I've seen ya'll! Lovely pictures! Lovely family! Miss ya'll!

Those are amazing! We are going for pictures today too. Do you find that your photographers ever want to play with your family? Ours wants to do a manger scene because our kids are the perfect age...8,6,4,2,and baby. ROfl.. I let her because she'll give us free sitting fees!
Beautiful photos! Look forward to seeing more sometime... :)
