Cute Family and New location!

Published on by Bobbi-Jo G.

A gal pal from my ward asked me to do their family photos for them, which, for me, is super fun and super scary! Fun because I already know them and am at ease around them, and scary because if they don’t like the results, I’m gonna see them all the time, shooting daggers at me with their eyes. LOL! This family is such an awesome group – they seriously had me laughing all the time and their kids look just like little baby gap models. Such sweethearts. I’m triple lukcy because they also introduced me to this fun park where we found tonnes of great places to take some photos. SCORE! Now I have another locale to add to my list for future reference.

I played around with the post-processing a bit with these, having some fun 🙂 This one I did a vintage finish, more muted tones. I kinda like the result. BTW, on my photoshoots, I always include several finishes of the same pose so the client can choose which they like best.
Okay, this little guy I want to eat up. M was such a doll, and I adore him for sticking it out for a good hour before giving up and falling asleep. LOL!

If you want to know what pure joy looks like, look no further: …And that was simply from seeing his mom walk by.


This family is full of die hard Roughrider fans, so their idea of photographing them in their jerseys was way cute. Another vintage one:


This little guy ‘B’ looks just like his daddy. He was so friendly and we got to be friends pretty quick. I could just eat him for lunch, with those adorable dimples.
And this gorgeous gal was such a sweetheart. After the photoshoot, she gave me a big hug and said “Thank you for taking our pictures!” Such a doll. I wanted to take her home, but that wasn’t part of the deal 😦 It’s okay, I”ll see them at church on Sunday 😉
And seriously, isn’t she beautiful? Okay, he’s handsome too, but she just blows me away.
This is one of my favorites of them together. I think she was checking out his teeth because he had something stuck in them. LOL! Love those candid moments. Again, a vintage finish on this. The sad, sad thing is they are moving out of our ward soon 😦 The good thing is, it’s into a better neighborhood, better house, better all around. And since we live in a smaller city, we’ll see each other lots! I may even see her at the Midnight release party for Breaking Dawn tomorrow night. We’ll see if I make it to midnight 🙂 Ciao for now!

  7. Bobbi – you are incredibly talented! Makes my blog look terrible. Oh well- Ok seriously -this is me talking- you have no reason to worry about whether someone will ‘like’ your pictures. You have truly become a professional. If anyone ever says they don’t like them -they don’t know what they are talking about and are likely the kind of person who hates everything anyways. (Just say no to those people) Congrats girl!

  8. I totally totally love the crispness of the photos (is that a word to use with photos? maybe with pizzas not photos..anyways) Love the vintage look of the photos and yes you’re right..the dimpled kid is almost eatable! Fabulous!
