FULL FAMILY SESSION: GGG Alliteration

She's been teacher to my two elder daughters...she knows her stuff and she knows how to run a classroom...she knows just the right balance between "stick to it" and "let's have fun". I'm so, so thankful that my daughters had her example, had her as a role model and investing into their lives for 6 hours every weekday for 9 months. 

I was thrilled when I was asked to photograph her extended family...when I had the opportunity to meet the people that are privileged enough to know her on a more personal level.  

It was during that weekend of "will it rain...will it not rain?" 

It turned out that just the right amount of cloud cover provided a perfect environment for the beginning of our morning session...and we were taking pictures at lightning speed, because that rain was still on it's way...

The kids nailed it and the parents got to watch my "crazy" as we sped along.  The whole group is generous, gregarious and gracious...(I thought I'd just throw in that alliteration for some educational enjoyment!) 

Even when the raindrops started to fall, everyone pitched in with the goofy and fun to wrap up our last little get together shots!  It was well worth the extra morning effort!
