Family Pictures

We have not had our family pictures taken for quite awhile. Well we did have some taken just after last Christmas with Mark's extended family and a couple shots were taken of our little crew but those didn't turn out so yes, it's been quite awhile.

When one of my friend's SIL was flying in to the area and wanted to schedule some photo shoots to pay for her trip at a VERY reasonable price, we jumped at the chance. Unfortunately her trip was cancelled at the last minute. We decided to take our tri-pod out and try to get a few pictures ourselves. They didn't turn out that bad but there is something to be said about having someone else set the shot up and of course having a better camera and what not. And for some reason when I upload these pictures to blogger, they are looking grainy the originals do not.

Oh well, some day we'll get some good ones.

If anyone knows of someone great at a reasonable price, let us know...

These are great--especially for do-it-yourself. We had some professional ones recently and the best one was not that great. I can't believe how big the kids are getting! And yes--we're the same age!

The pictures look great and I LOVE the outfits. You have a great eye for matching without looking too matchy-matchy!

You have one of the cutest families ever! I hope you have a big stick handy for all those boys wanting to date your daughters! (When you came back to AZ. Steph Frazier does a great job!)

I'm impressed - I think you did a great job on your own. If you are still looking for someone to take some for you, call Charity Ashworth - she does a fabulous job!
