This family photo session had it all—-rain, wind, and me falling down!  I was so embarrassed, but thankfully my ankle (and my camera) were ok.  Besides all of those hiccups, I had a great time meeting this new family for updated family photos recently.

I met Alison, Brian, Parker, and Caden on a cloudy Tuesday evening and about 5 minutes into our session, the skies opened up and big raindrops started falling.  We could see blue skies so we just waited in our cars for about 5 minutes and thankfully the freak summer storm passed.  However, it did bring some wind with it so I had to angle Alison nestled into her tall husband to block the wind from blowing her hair—ha!  It worked great and after another 5 minutes, the wind calmed down and there were no more weather issues for our session.   🙂  There was just my ankle turning out of the blue and me falling down on some steps and knocking my camera, but besides hurting my pride, all was fine.

Here are some of my favorite images from this family session at South Valley Open Space Park.  I hope this family considers working with me again in the future despite our crazy evening!  Ha!
