My last portrait session of 2018 was one to remember. I think it will go down as the largest hour family session I have ever done, ever. It was Ashlyn’s Dad’s 80th birthday so the whole family was there, and it was so great to see. I laughed because it was almost like an assembly line when we were in the backyard. I would photograph one family and the next would be waiting to go next. I am no way complaining, and I just loved how efficient and organized Ashlyn and her family were. It could have easily taken 1 hour to just get all the groupings done but we did in a little over a half hour.

That meant I still had some time to go inside and capture a few candids of everyone having out. It was really nice to be able to do indoor and outdoor photos all in one session. Once inside, it was a very relaxed atmosphere which meant the candids were extremely natural. Before I knew it, the session was over and it was time to leave. It was fitting end to 2018, and I couldn’t have asked for a better family to ring in the New Year with.
