One of my favorite sessions of the year always goes to my brother-in-law, Jared, and his wife, Michelle.  There is something so special about having my niece and nephews in front of the camera with no cousin distractions.  I love having an hour or so with them all to myself.  There is nothing quite as special as this time with Auntie Amber.  Michelle always does a fabulous job of coordinating her family’s wardrobe. (She had my niece in the cutest hat!)  You would never guess that Michelle and Jared had just returned from Disneyland the evening before their family session; they still had plenty of smiles after visiting the happiest place on Earth!

Some of my favorite pictures from their session were when the kids were doing what they do best, being children!  They ran around their parents, explored the fields, and my older nephew kicked up dirt into his face; and Jared needed a baby wipe to clean him up.  I always love to take the time to get updated pictures of just Jared and Michelle.  They had just recently celebrated their wedding anniversary while they were on vacation in Disneyland, so we also took their annual anniversary picture during their session as well.  You can view Michelle and Jared’s maternity/family session from last year here, their pregnancy announcement here, and a previous fall family portrait session here.

Michelle and Jared, I do not know if you know how much I love getting this time alone with your family.  I love my babies, but they can be quite a distraction!  It is always so much fun to see your family interact and to love one another.  As always, you have way too many pictures in your gallery.  I hope you enjoy looking back on these pictures for many years to come, and I hope that your babies enjoy seeing how tiny they all were at this stage in their lives. I cannot wait for you to see some of my many favorites from your fall family portrait session.
