Foote Family Photo Shoot

It was a beautiful Thursday afternoon the wind however was pretty strong.  We met up with the Foote family at Blora lake about an hour before sunset.  We had some great lightening and were able to get some really cool shots of them climbing on a really funky tree we found up at the lake.  Their 5 year old son Ethan wanted to head to the playground so we did.  He came upon a rolling fake log in the playground and immediately jumped on it and played "lumberjack logger" lol He was loving that thing! The playground area's  (we ventured to three different playgrounds this day all at Blora working on the perfect fun family shots) were great because not only did we actually get some great shots for them but, they had fun taking them.  We even got Ethan who was not a fan of heights on the monkey bars all by himself! He did great and is very photogenic!

The Foote family was a lot of fun and we had a ton of laughs taking their pictures.  The best part of taking pictures outside of a studio is you get to really capture the family as they really are, it's not as stuffy and it's so much more relaxed and fun.  The family just enjoys them selves and don't even think of the camera, it is our job as the photography to capture you at the right moments. Amanda was worried the wind would mess up her hair however it seemed to really help a few pictures.  This was a great happy family to work with and we look forward to working with them again in the future!

Below are a few shots from our shoot for your enjoyment.
