the froeses: family

Sunday, October 30th, 2011

i gotta be honest…kind of felt like i entered the twilight zone with this one.  morning light filtering through the changing trees.  impeccably dressed little girls. a 15 year-old boy who had been up until 2am but was completely cooperative and may be the only one who was actually looking at the camera/smiling/eyes open in nearly every picture.  three drop-dead gorgeous women.  and the thing that really threw me off: grown men who actually didn’t seem to mind having their picture taken (ladies – give us some tips?  did you bribe them? were you secretly holding a gun to their backs?).

i was first introduced to rachel when i got to be a part of the old school market, an amazing vintage/handmade sale that she and her business partner coordinated earlier this year.  when they decided to host another one in fall, they invited me to document the day for them and i’m so glad i did because i got to know her better!  rachel is generous and kind, super organized and creative (check out her business, birch + bird vintage home interiors and you’ll see what i’m talking about).  she and her family are moving down to florida, so that was one of the big reasons they wanted to get family pictures done while everyone was still in town.

sometimes i save the best for last, but this time i’m going to throw my absolute favorite from the session at you right off the top.  ready?

and finally, the reason half of these people even exist: mom & dad.  it’s a big anniversary for them this year which is certainly something to celebrate!
