It is that time of year where all of the photography friends and I have every weekend and sometimes weekday consumed with either a wedding or family session and are in full swing. Today I have 4 on my calendar but I have halfway done for the day! As I sit down and edit between my sessions- I realize that each and every family really deserves to be spotlighted and their images deserve to be shared with the world.

I was fortunate enough to be able to photograph this hilarious and sweet family at Stocksdale Park in Liberty, MO a few weekends ago.. (yes… I know.. you are probably asking why I am just now sharing these…..) The session started out with a bang and an epic walk to the little pond over and down the hill back amongst the frisbee golf course. I love this little spot because you get the best of both worlds- water, trees and grass. I mean it is the perfect trifecta of fall.

We certainly had many laughs and a few dirty diapers in the hour I got to spend with them doing photos. Between the little sprinkles of rain and the cloudy environment, they were like any family just enjoying an opportunity to capture this particular moment in their lives. Which … by the way, is one of the many reasons I love capturing families in both big and small formats.

Here are a few shots from their laughter filled session. Don’t worry… there are way more than these 5!
