Last summer, Jonathan and I talked about the possibility of me taking his family photos for the next year. Little did I know that we would end up engaged and I would have to be IN the group photos! It was a whirlwind trying to fiddle around with a 10 year old shutter remote and brainstorm ways to make this session work as smoothly as possible. Thanks to my future mother-in-law, we had a wonderful assistant who was able to help with the tripod and make silly faces to entertain the little ones when I wasn't able to be behind the camera!

I am so excited to become a part of this family in December. And now, I'll have lots of kiddos to enjoy photographing all year round! :)

What we really look like. — What we *really* look like.

Someone finally took the camera from of my hands and had us take a "real" photo.I feel so adult-like. — Someone finally took the camera from of my hands and had us take a "real" photo.
