I don’t normally photograph families. Normally doesn’t give me the same feeling that shooting a Wedding or photographing a Senior gives me. Just doesn’t stir my soul… or something like that.
I had to make the exception (and might have to make it more often), for the Brose family. Mr. Caleb is one of our Street Team members this year and his mom called me up asking about some family photos. We set up a time and, as the weather gods would have it, it was raining. All of her kids were in one state at the same time and so we needed to get it done soon. We were able to find a time where, not only were they all in the same state, but also in the same house, at the same time! The weather cooperated and we rocked the shots in about an hour because the boys had a Brewers/Cubs game to get to (Sadly the Brew Crew took an L).
I don’t shoot families often, but let me know what you think about the shots:
P.s. I hope the weather holds out for a fantastic wedding that I am shooting tomorrow with Mr. Jake Rohde. DANG rain and weddings. They don’t mix well! Like vinegar and baking soda.

Love these. Even though it’s not your usual subject, your style still shines through. I’m waaay past high school, already married, but I DO have 2 kids so I am +1 for making this exception more often!
Big fan of your work and love reading your blog.
