CDA Family Photos with the Godfrey's

Getting to meet the Godfrey’s for their family photos was a privilege. I really enjoyed getting to know them, watching their boys play, and attempting to get their beautiful daughter to smile - and smile she did. Granted, what you don’t see is all the tears she also shed, but that smile man - so worth it. What a beautiful and kind family. Love how these turned out!

Personal - Looyenga Family Photos

I really love doing family photos, but historically the one family that is by far the hardest to photograph is my own. Not only because I have to be in some, but because people tend to have absolutely no problem complaining to other family members. That said, this one went really smoothly - which was awesome. I just wish I could have had my whole family there (missing my younger brother and his family). That said, these people are some of the most important in my life, and I am excited to share these with you all.

Anderson Family Photos in North Idaho

There are some incredible ties between my past and my present with this family. My oldest son shares a class with one of these amazing kids, I used to go to school with one of these amazing moms, and I am friends with - even if we don’t’ get to spend much time together - with one of these amazing families. Not to mention getting to play basketball against one of these excellent fathers. In the end, when they reached out and asked me to do their family photos again, I was very excited. This is one incredible, beautiful, kind family - and it shows. So here are a couple of my favorites, but there is no doubt that this was a highlight family photo shoot for me this year.

Reilley-Swanholt Family Photos in Coeur d'Alene

The first chance I had to meet the Reilley family was when we met on the beach in Coeur d’Alene. From the first moment they were a joy to speak to and so easy to photograph. They were quick to laugh, and a group that was just fun to get to know. I’m excited that we also had quite possibly one of the best days to do the family shoot, and i’m excited I get to be the one to share some of these with you!

Lamb Family on the Coeur d'Alene Beach

I met the Lamb family for the first time when we met for this shoot. They have two boys who remind me a lot of my boys - wanting to run, jump and play - just a couple years younger than mine. It made for a good time, with a mix of adventures and utilizing some of the boys’ ideas for photos, while also getting some I knew they would all like. Mix in the very kind and thoughtful grandparents, and I love how this shoot turned out. Not to mention getting an incredible day. Here are some of my favorites!
