The Neslen Family at Presidio Park

The Neslen Family and I headed out to Presidio Park for their pictures. They are no stranger to my camera, we have taken pictures of them since they were a family of two. Their family has grown and so has our friendship over the years. Unlike my house full of girls, they have their hands full with three boys. It is so funny watching how different raising boys is from raising girls. Grace was calm as could be as the boys jumped, dove, fell, wrestled, ran and everything else that little boys do. I’m so glad that I could continue our tradition of taking pictures of their family as they grow.

The Papapietro Family at Presidio Park

This special family are no strangers to my blog- in fact, this fall I did pictures of Amanda’s family by themselves and Liz’s family by themselves. But I absolutely love that every year Katie, Amanda and Liz’s mom, makes it a priority to get them all together and do what I refer to as “the big family shoot”. It is always eventful- full of laughing, crying (mostly the toddler but sometimes the mom chasing the toddler lol), and lots of singing/dancing/yelling/hooting/anything to get the kids’ attention.

I love this family, each and everyone of them. I can’t imagine a single year where we don’t do this. I hope it never stops.
