M Family Mini Session | MN Family Photographer Christmas Portraits

Back in November, I had the opportunity to photograph this sharp looking family for their Christmas Card picture in a Christmas Mini Session. What fun! We were playing around with ornaments and Christmas decorations in front of my mom's log cabin fireplace. It was SOOOOOOOOOOO cold out though, so we rushed around and snapped some keepers in front of a stand of pines.  :)

I had the joy of laughing with this family while I took their family photos.

The main goal of the session was to get a good shot for their Christmas card. I hope we did that!

I really enjoyed the kids: They were so funny...  the girls were complete girls -- totally into modeling for me with princess waves and funny stories to make each other laugh. The little boy was a total boy -- grumping about having to pose for the camera but throwing me cheesy grins and goofball antics. His favorite thing we would do to make him laugh was call him "daddy." He thought it was the craziest idea, and loved it!

Although it is hard to believe, we are now in the holiday season, already getting ready to say, "Merry Christmas!" I can't understand, for the life of me, where time goes. It moves beyond catching up with. Add in children, and you can't blink fast enough, right?

Well, anyway, I am so glad to have started some great family sessions this Fall. Thinking ahead is SO important! This family had their session at their home, in Nevis... On the Lake! How wonderful! The colors were rich, and they did an excellent job coordinating their outfits!

Enjoy this little sneak at their October family portrait session.
