Christmas family portraits

Here are our first family portraits taken at a studio! I just adore the pictures of Lillian and Josh. Me, not so much! :/ I was pretty much frozen-faced because I was afraid of blinking! So while these aren’t my favorites of me, I just love that we have our first family portraits for Christmas!

This dress that Lillian is wearing is one that my Mom had saved from when my sisters and I were babies. I love all the adorable little ruffles. It has a very vintage ballerina/Victorian feel to it.

OH and not to leave our gorgeous Shadow girl out, here are some portraits of her! (Taken at home of course!)

What a beautiful new post, Sweetheart! It’s fun to get to see the collages of our studio photos. I was so happy that we ended up doing that! I know it isn’t easy to do outings with our schedule right now but that was really worth it. I love that we get to use our Nikon D7000 at home and you get such premium ones of Lillian always but it’s tough to duplicate studio lighting and backdrops. You and Lillian are just angels and I couldn’t be prouder! How can you not know how gorgeous and flawless you are, Sweetheart?

I would have loved that dress even if it wasn’t from when you were babies but that makes it extra special. How neat will it be to tell Lillian about that someday? I just adore that she even gave her big famous beautiful smile in one on her own and one with us holding her. She did so well and didn’t get upset once at the photo studio. She also sat up so well! We were so proud of you.

I’m also so glad you included our fourth family member in Shadow. That’s beautiful bokeh of her in front of the window. What a gorgeous gray girl who has done so well with Lillian.

Also, thank you everyone for the nice words. I do have the most beautiful family. 🙂

  I am sooo glad you got her to smile in some of them! Thank you! 🙂

Very nice! Although I think your “at home” pictures you take are equally fantastic!! 🙂
