Last weekend we got our first ever family portraits taken! We went to a beautiful park right on the Puget Sound that's less than a 10 minute drive away from our house! We haven't seen most of the pictures yet, but I just saw these "preview" pictures posted on the photographer's blog. It makes me so excited to see the rest! I think they're really beautiful!
I'm SO glad we got some great shots, because Kirsten did NOT want to sit still and pose for the camera, and we didn't finish until it was past her bedtime!
I'd love to hear what everyone thinks of the pictures!
Ashley!!! Those pictures are GORGEOUS!!! I mean it!!! Your photographer did a Great Job! And you all look so beautiful and happy!!!! ♥
ReplyDeleteWe are WAY OVER DUE for some professional family pictures!!! The last ones we had taken were over 4 years ago!!!
These are so great! I think the last one with the water in the background is my fave. We are also seriously overdue for family pics.
ReplyDeleteThose pictures are great! you have such a happy and good-looking family!
ReplyDeleteI love the pictures! I can't wait to see more! I used to think Kirsten looked more like you but now I think she looks more like her dad - although she has both of you in her I think. In any case, she's adorable!
ReplyDeleteThose are great shots. It has been YEARS since our family got a portrait done together. I just keep saying I will do it when I lose 30 pounds. Blah, blah, blah. m
ReplyDeleteSuch great pictures!
ReplyDeleteI really need to get my baby's 1 year pictures done. She is 13 months old now and I still have not done them!
Wow! Amazing pictures, Ashley. I love the first and last family portraits, and that one of Kirsten by herself. Could those eyes get any bluer??? As noted, your photographer did a great job. Whatever you paid, it was worth it! ;)
ReplyDeleteWhat an adorable family you have! Your little girl is so cute!!
ReplyDeleteWe haven't had a group family shot taken professionally, and our son is two! My husband and I are not photogenic and I'm in denial about my weight. I don't want photographic evidence. :)
Your family pictures are beautiful!
ReplyDeleteMerrianne: Thank you!!! You're so sweet! My family never got family portraits taken when I was growing up. Seriously, the last large framed one that was on my parents' wall forever was from when I was 5 years old!!! Sad, huh?
ReplyDeleteAlyssa: Thanks! I love the water one too, except that Kirsten was squinting and her expression wasn't as cute. I love all the smiles in the one with the tree behind us.
Carrie: Thank you!!!
Ruth: Thanks Ruthie! I think Kirsten's a good mix of both of us too, she doesn't look exactly like either one but sometimes like more like me and sometimes more like Stephen. I'll bet you're way excited to see who your baby looks like!
Mrs. F: Thank you! Yeah, it's so normal to feel self-conscious in pictures. I know I do! Notice I was wearing black. :)
Jeanette: Thanks for the compliments!
Smith Fam: Thanks, I'm so glad you liked them! We actually didn't pay anything for the session, which was awesome. We will have to pay for prints though.
Kittyhox and Natalie: Thank you so much for the nice comments!
Way cute!!!! x 30000
ReplyDeletelove the first family picture :) Awesome!
What channel is Project Runway on? Isn't it Bravo? We don't have a satellite. But I know everyone who watches it loves LOVES it. I'm sure I would get sucked in if I had the chance!
ReplyDeleteCute, cute. I really like the last picture. How fun is that?
ReplyDeleteThose pictures are beautiful! That last one in front of the Ocean looks like it came out of a magazine! Kirsten is so cute, I can't wait to see the rest!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful family! Love you.
ReplyDeleteAshley!!! Such gorgeous pictures--and, having such a beautiful family sure doesn't hurt matters!
ReplyDeleteThey are all great, but, that last one in front of the water is just stunning. I love family portraits--you guys are so cute!
Hope you had a great weekend.
What amazing pictures!!! I love them!!! You should blow those up huge for your living room, they're really incredible! What a beautiful family!

ReplyDeleteCUTE pictures Ashley!!!! I loved the first family picture the best, but these are so cute and will look beautiful in your home for sure.
ReplyDeleteYour family looks so happy - and you can totally tell that there is so much love in your home :)
Shell, Jody, Whitney, Susan, Her Shabbyness, Lisa, Da Bergs, and Rachel: Thank you SO much for your nice comments! I really appreciate them all!!!
ReplyDeleteAlyssa: Yes, it's on Bravo! That's too bad you don't get that channel, I know you'd love the show.
