The Blust Family | Conewago Trail Fall Family Photos | Elizabethtown, PA

I love when parents seem nervous about their kids at family portrait session. I could tell Kristi and Adam were a little apprehensive about their family photos. And I totally get it! How could I possibly get anything worth printing and hanging on their wall when their kid is running around having fun the whole time? It's all part of the plan!

First off, I thrive on chaos. I do photograph weddings after all... Ha! I also have three niblings and two goddaughters under seven... I am very use to chaos! Secondly, I would never be able to get kids to smile and pose for more traditional shots if I didn't win them over first. Stranger danger y'all!! Insert silly face photos and a couple of races to see who fastest and I just made two new best friends! I mean what kid doesn't like sticking their tongue out at a stranger and NOT getting in trouble for it?

Peri and Ed were no different then any other kids I've worked with. The second I mentioned silly faces they were all about it and happy to flash me a couple smiles in between! They even let me snap a few of their cute snuggly parents! But not without a quick photobomb... haha
