Once a year, I attempt to make it back to where I grew up (Omaha!) and hold a weekend of mini sessions. Because September and October were so busy with weddings and other things, I couldn’t do the mini sessions until the last weekend in October. Which meant SUPER FREAKING COLD TEMPERATURES. And that means, I had SUPER FREAKING AWESOME clients who braved the frigidness. Like noses were dripping and stiff to move…fingers were ice…. the chill that gets into your bones. The first session on this post was actually the 2nd of the day and the 2nd post was the first…(the uploading got messed up, sorry!) So that’s right…the bravest of them all was a 1-year old…
The first session was at 8:30… and it was 24 degrees out!!!
(And if all goes right this year, I will be holding these sessions again at the end of Sept or early October in hopes we beat the silly horrid low temps!!)
First up… the E family. The mom, Natalie, is my sister’s good friend. And she and Jeff make MODEL-icious kids.
OnceSeriously….how can she be this young and already know how to work those puppy dog eyes!!?
And again, the first family to kick off the weekend. They look all warm and cozy…but that is soooo not the case! Sara is someone I met in preschool…and I find it so cool that we had our kiddos just 4 months apart!!!! Lil’ Harper couldn’t be more darling (or look more like Sara when she was that age!!!)
Thank you to the E & O families for manning up and owning the arctic embrace of an early winter!!!
More mini sessions to come!!!!
Cindy - Darling families! Darling kiddos! I may be partial to one particular one yr old! 🙂 good work, Darbi
Darbi's Mom - Cute, cute, cute families! Jeff and Natalie’s little girl is sooooo photogenic. Beautiful! And Sara and Tim’s little Harper is so cute! Yes, she definitely looks like Sara. Beautiful work Darbi! If I didn’t know better, I would never be able to tell by the pictures that it was freaking cold that morning.
