After my faith, my family is the most important thing in my life. And as the oldest of seven (yes, I said seven!) children, I’ve been in quite a few family photoshoots myself. I understand the crying babies, messy clothes, silly faces, squirmy toddlers, and everything in between! But what came out of those shoots are some of my favorite treasures.

I so appreciate the way my sweet mamma took the time to preserve our childhoods for us the way she did, even if I didn’t like stopping to pose for her at the time! So if you’re that mamma who’s gets the eye roll with the elongated, “MOM” every time she whips out her camera, or the now grown-up child wishing she hadn’t given so many of those eye-rolls herself, you’ve come to the right place!
