My family session

chicago fall family photos

In case you haven’t noticed, I’ve taken a little hiatus from blogging. Been a bit busy and all being a Mommy x 2. But I wanted to pop in and share our first family shoot at Busse Woods as we did with our other family shoot – this time a family of four – by the uber-talented Kat Davis from Deep End Imagery.

I must confess. I fluff Rhys’ hair up like that. Because it’s so cute. He doesn’t naturally have Spiky Asian Hair Syndrome.

I digress. By the time The Giant was able to meet us for the session, we lost a lot of natural light at the end of the day. Here we are in these photos immortalized in time, just a sweet, simple capture of our lives, here and now. Roman is three weeks shy of the big TWO, and little Rhys is a little over one month old. Kat managed to capture the few quiet moments we had in such a beautiful manner. Aren’t they lovely? (You tell me, I might be biased.)

What you don’t see in these photos are all the hilarious behind-the-scenes of Roman not paying attention and running around wild with his cousins who came to the shoot, us all getting bitten up by mosquitos, or me trying to look “put together” while the babe is grabbing my hair. And this is surely just the beginning of all the fun that should ensue, no longer a family of three.

So, who does Lil Wee Gee most resemble? And as my foray back into the blogosphere slowly resumes, I’d like to know, what would you like to see more of?

xo, Melissa
