I have done something unprecedented in my business today. I have finished a gallery before posting a big sneak peek. I know, it’s crazy. This family is on a major time crunch. See, they live in China. Yes, I am now internationally known (and now I hear Mark singing in my subconscious … i’m not internationally known, but i’m known throughout the microphone … yes, that is a glimpse into my husband’s favorite tracks). And they head back to China soon. So this is a rush order friends. Since I was working steadily at editing their gallery, I didn’t pick out photos I wanted specifically for the blog. Instead, I saved the ones I liked for the blog while I edited them. Because of this, I ended up with 27 photos to put on the blog! I am not putting all 27 on the blog … I don’t think. I didn’t count. I just did something a little different in the form of storyboards. So maybe there are 27, but they don’t take up as much space ;o)
Anyhow, I think you’ll enjoy them regardless!
Remember this sweetie from the other day? I think I could have posted every.single.image of hers. I forget how lovely it is to photograph a 6 month old. They sit still. They smile at peek-a-boo. It was wonderful!
And here’s her two older brothers. They’re cute too. I’m really thankful the oldest stayed with me. After the first 5 pics I took of him he said something like, “okay, I’m done. Can we go now?” Thanks for being a trooper!
{How ’bout those curls?! And every child’s gorgeous big blue eyes!}
Just in case you want to see more blonde curls:
And more:
And here’s some of the whole fam:
They were a lot of fun!
And probably my favorite collection of faces:
{I LOVE little Sadie grabbing for my camera!}
And one last one just because I love the joy and wonder of it!
I think I was destined to meet the Keegan’s. They are friends of the Ead’s who you’ve seen appear more than once on this blog. When the Ead’s live out in Pennsylvania my friend Amy and I flew out there to pick up a car that was to be given to Amy before she was to move to Minnesota (so many friends left me that summer … no worries though Muncie draws everyone back at some point!). It was the Keegan’s car. They had left for China not long before and couldn’t take the car and so graciously passed it on. I also happened to pick up a new vacuum while out there. Yep, the Keegan’s too. I try to pray for them when I vacuum ;o) AND one of my good friends from high school was also part of the same ministry they are a part of there in China. So, it has been a long time coming I think. But we have officially met. And I can’t think of a better way to get to know someone than by taking their family photos! Thanks for picking me out all the way from China!
