Photo Shoot

Each fall Jake & I organize ourselves for a family photo.  The entire project is fun for me, because I start to pretend I am stylist & have a little to much fun with wardrobe. The actually day of the shoot is usually a comedy of errors. 

Here is how is goes, EVERYTIME, me I shower before anyone is awake. Then I going into hair & makeup, aka.... ME. Then I wake Jake up and he showers while I prep Miss. S because she is no where near as messy as H. Once she is ready I dress Henry, he is adorable & all boy so, timing is everything. 

Once we are all dressed this process is from 7-9, which BTW,  the kids can't eat anything messy which causes a bit of ruckus.  When 9:00 arrives so does Jeremy, our fantastic photographer friend, who by the way has allowed us to pay him in food.  

We are dressed & ready. Now if you know my husband you know he does not like to take pictures & family pics are particularly stressful. My job keep it cool & blissful, Jeremy helps too. I say when your taking family photos do what you can & hope for a captured moment that reveals the "real" you or Smiths in our case. 

I picked a few spots then let the kids run around spontaneously while Jeremy shot away. All in all we had a great time, I am sure Jeremy captured something fantastic.  We were lucky enough to take him along with us apple picking, which by the way we used a bribe with the kids all morning. I am sure he captured some fun shots of the kids.
