Impromptu Family Photos

October 27, 2010

Written by Meg

Earlier this week, before the cold set in, the weather was perfect, the trees were all red and orange and we had a hankering to take photos of the foliage. So during hubbys lunch time we headed over to the river to take some photos of the beautiful tree covered river bank.

Unfortunately, we couldn’t find a good vantage point, and so we stopped in a pretty park to hang out – and ended up taking some impromptu family photos. (I LOVE this with Bunny hugging a tree in the background- that kid is a crack up)

I’ve got to tell you, I’m so thrilled with how these turned out – adorable kiddies right??

This is such a great fall family photo session. The colors look beautiful with the foliage in the background! I hope after the trip home you made hot apple cider and snuggled up with some family movie time. !

Your family is so lovely! I love the shot of your little guy by himself especially! Toddlers with pigtails has to be one of the sweetest things ever! Your outfit is perfect, I have a strange question though, when you are at home do you walk around barefoot in your tights? I know that seems like an odd question but I am afraid I will ruin then so I tend to put them on when I will be out all day and not in and out of shoes!

That’s not a strange question! Yep, I do walk around barefoot in my tights when I’m at home. They do get a little dirty on the soles by the end of the day, but they’re as good as new after I was them. I think it’s because I buy really high quality tights, so they’re thicker and seem to be more resilient! I never used to when I worked full time, because I wore thinner stockings and they got absolutely ruined by walking barefoot in them – but the thicker tights and sweater tights seem to do just fine!! xoxo
