Whitney and her siblings wanted to gift their father, Darrell, family pictures. They all gathered out at Darrell’s beautiful olive orchard to freeze this moment in time. It was easy to see how loved Darrell is by his family all coming together and surrounding him with their smiles and laughter.  Darrell took pictures with his children and his grandbabies.  There was plenty of love to go around with Darrell and his family.  The puppy dogs even made their appearance!  You can view more extended family sessions here.

I love family sessions because it makes my heart happy to see everyone together and to save this moment in time.  Darrell’s family enjoyed their group pictures all together, but they also enjoyed taking smaller breakout pictures with their immediate families, siblings, doggies, and their favorite Uncle Adam.  At the end of the session, Whitney took a stroll through the olive orchard with her older daughter and it ended up being a favorite of mine.

Darrell and Family, thank you for trusting me to take your family pictures and for inviting me out to your beautiful property in the country.  What an amazing family you have!  I loved hearing your laughter and seeing your smiles as you chatted and light-heartedly joked with one another.  I am happy that Amanda’s puppy dogs were able to join in on the fun too.  They were a wonderful addition to the day.  I am so excited for you to see some of my many favorites from your family session at a location that is special to your hearts.
