the people: coll family

I’ve been having the hardest time trying to get back on a regular blogging schedule. Suffering from lack of sleep after Vegas and jumping right into a few shoots, a wedding and work, not to mention my laptop power cord DYING and RESURRECTING in the same day, I’ve been hard pressed to want to do anything besides sit on the couch and try not to tax too many brain cells  figuring out how many other Others there are on  LOST!

I am slowly but surely on my way back though…I think. Maybe you should leave some happy comments down below so I’ll feel more motivated…just sayin’

ANYWAY,

Enough about me, let’s move on to the Coll family. Mom and Dad are renewing their vows next month and in lieu of an engagement session, they opted to bring the entire family. Seriously cute kids and a super fabulous family.

the people: family x18

I tried not to look overwhelmed, but I was.

I tried to smile and pretend that shooting a family  of 18 people is exactly what I do every single day.

I tried not to look scared, but inside I was terrified.

You don’t see many family shoots on this blog anymore for one reason – I’m not that great at family portraits. In fact, my new brand (yep, it’s coming) is saturated with weddings, because I LOVE weddings. I KNOW weddings. Crying children, I’m not quite so sure. Children scare me – I’m not quite sure what to do with them. It’s true…don’t judge me.

Even a family as fabulously gorgeous as this one. It was still 18 of them against 2 (Thanks Joe for assisting). Luckily, pretty people are easy to shoot…I just lined them up and pretended I was doing family formals at a wedding.;)

To get the baby to smile, someone had to sing “Boom Boom Pow” by the Black Eyed Peas behind my shoulder the entire time. I wish I had switched my MarkII to video…
