Jamie desperately wanted a family portrait session. She told me that her older daughter, Monroe’s, school had asked her to send in a family portrait and the only one she could find was from Halloween, where the entire family was dressed as characters from Aladdin.

We had several reschedules but finally got together on a beautiful evening in August right before sunset.

Big sis, Monroe, almost 5, did great posing for the camera!

Little sis, Collins, was only 15 months old and was definitely a tougher cookie! She had all of us acting crazy to try to get those smiles!

Mom specifically chose Settler’s Cabin Park for its rustic feel. She particularly loved the white barn with its peeling paint.

And I absolutely love the texture of the tall grasses and wildflowers!

Looking for a location with tall grasses north of the city? Check out this family session that took place at North Park!
