And more cute cousins! | Family Portraits

You might recognize these three cute guys from a couple posts ago and this time we have a few additions. My cousin Rachel and her family, my Aunt Beth and cousin, Callie came to visit us. I was beyond excited when she told us they were coming. Beth and Callie recently moved from Ohio to Raleigh, and I love having them near! It is an extra special bonus that it will bring my cousins for visits to North Carolina from Kentucky, Pennsylvania and Ohio. We are more like brothers and sisters. We grew up within fifteen minutes of each other in the same church, and we share so many memories (as you may well know if you’ve read my blog for long).

Rachel and Nick decided to tackle the task of having a full family portrait session during their visit. I’m not going to lie, it was a challenge, but these guys did so great. We definitely needed to have a little fun and I think we did!

I love family sessions with little kids! Not only do I get to capture the fun and busy time of life with little kiddos, but the families get to spend some time together enjoying an afternoon outside running around and playing.

Just look at this sweetness. These boys love their mama, daddy, Yaya and Aunt Callie! Speaking of Callie, I was so blown away by what a beautiful young lady she is becoming.

Nick & Rachel, thank you so much for taking the time to do this while you were here. You know I treasure it. I am so thankful we got to spend some time together. Aunt Beth, I know you’ll miss your family, but I am so glad you are closer to us. You are going to love Raleigh! Cal, you were such a help at the session. I am so glad we got to do a few portraits of you – I love them!  I love y’all so much!
