Family pictures at Cedar Lake

I was so excited to be back in my hometown of New Prague to capture the family pictures of this wonderful foursome. I have had the joy of photographing both of their boys’ newborn sessions. 

We met on a humid summer evening at Cedar Lake Farms for their family pictures, so they can dressed in light and airy clothing. It was cloudy when we arrived at the spot we were going to do the session, but then the clouds broke and we had a beautiful evening of sun. I was so happy as the sun peaking through the clouds gave the perfect glow for their pictures.

Their older boy was full of energy, curiosity and playfulness while their younger son was very into observing and content in his parents arms. Being able to capture their personalities, now that they are older, was so fun. 

 Despite the heat and humidity, we were able to capture so many sweet moments and the boys were such champs through it all.

Are you looking to capture family pictures? My goal is to make your session easy, so let’s set up a phone call so I can hear about what you are looking for and I can tell you about the process.
