I was hoping for a day like yesterday for awhile (except maybe a little warmer). I love it when the clouds are big and dark, but there's no threat of rain. We survived through the cold and wind and had a great time!




Of course when you do our own shoot, you do run the risk of a few outtakes -- such as waves rolling up behind you unaware.
And occasionally you need some comic relief ;o).However, once you have the family ones out of the way, you can just have fun














By the time we were leaving the sun was out more than it was hidden. We were cold though and needed to warm up, so we headed home.
Because we remember moments, not days...



Thank you Mr. and Mrs. W for sharing part of your evening with us. It was so good to meet and visit with you!
The simple (not so fun) pose. The shoe-in to make sure we have a church directory photo.
With John Deere :o). Even Jack the dog, and Poufy the kitten were in on the session.

How many people can say they've had their portraits done on the grain bin?

As the sunlight waned we took some photos purely for fun!
Poufy the Kitten.
I had to convince C that it really was okay to smile :o).
Scout is quite the model subject. She even had a sweet head tilt going on.
Lovely ladies.
I just had to include this photo. There is really nothing like a well loved family pet, and Scout is definitely one!






Thank you T family for giving up part of your evening! You were awesome sports. Just remember R, you need to smile :o)!
