This is one of my favorite shots of one of my favorite families!!  If I remember right, my husband was actually the one who placed everyone in this photo — he is so good at that.  I should hire him.  I was up on a ladder to shoot, and I think I was making the dad in this photo very nervous!  But look at all those girls!   He is used to looking out for danger!  We did this photo shoot to get some family shots they could use for their church entry and for prayer cards as they are preparing to go out in the mission field this summer!  Such a loving, generous family — God is going to use them in amazing ways!!  You can learn more about them here:  www.actisfamily.com.

boys & their shoes {fresno clovis photographer}

March 21, 2010

I have 2 boys.  A dear friend of mine who has 3 boys who are older than mine, was asked on her last trip to the grocery store if it was OK if they put her bagged groceries into 2 carts… This makes me afraid of my future grocery bills.  We are noticing the “boy funk” smell in the bedrooms, the airplane noises and nonsense songs seem to be getting louder and louder, and the pantry is emptying faster and faster…  The oldest of the 2 cannot keep a pair of jeans hole free for more than 3.5 months.  These are his shoes.  Also worn for about 3.5 months.  But what can I say?  The shoes make me smile.  Because my personality-filled, energetic boys are loving life.  And I love every minute right with them!

When I came home from our beautiful evening photo shoot and began to look at the images we were able to capture of this cute little sweet pea, this one immediately caught my eye and just made me giggle with delight!!  She wanted to do everything else except sit in the tiny chair, and at this point, it definitely seemed she was trying to hide behind it!  Could she be any more adorable??  And believe me, she shared so many more charming pieces of her personality that I will be posting soon!!

Never a dull moment with a three year old.  Especially when the three year old is a boy, right?  I’ve realized the look here on my son’s face is prevalent in about 80% of the photos I take of him… and yes, his mouth is wide open because he is making some kind of loud noise! ;-)   Our kids have always liked to bundle up with us on a Saturday morning in our bed, but now with them getting older, it seems it turns into a tickle fest or a throw-everyone-off-the-bed fest… but whatever it is, I think we will all treasure those snuggly memories!  These quilts that my kids are wrapped up in here also hold many memories — most of them are made by hand by my grandmother and some are quite old.  All the better to bundle up with :-) .

Lots of talented photographers are showing their bundled up moments at i heart faces, so please go take a look!
