I’ve known this family for years and I’m so glad I do! I not only had the pleasure of photographing their wedding, but their maternity, newborn and at least yearly family portraits. It’s a joy to see them and watch their family grow.

I spent quite a bit of time with Santa this weekend and he was nice enough to help me out with a few photos with them as well!

I spent a fair amount of time planning this pose and getting ready for it. Emma was a champ and nailed it. But as I’m editing it, I can’t help wondering what she’s thinking: “I’m outside on a sled in the snow…. wearing short sleeves and NO coat!!” LOL. I still love the pose,

Every once in a while, (OK maybe every time!) I come up with a wacky pose idea for them. Before I even finished telling them about it, Derek always says “I’m in!” In this one he’s grabbing his wife with a large candy cane. I smile every time I look at his facial expressions!
