An evening on the ranch ~D~ Family {Nebraska Family Photographer}

 

I adore this family. They are very close to my heart. My husband works for them, and even though we have only been here for nine months, they opened up their home for our wedding. That's right, they let a bunch of people they didn't know into their home and let us get married in their front yard. I am still in awe of their generosity.

I thought the least I could do was give them a session to capture special moments to last a lifetime.

~A~ had ideas for locations and we went scouting a little before shooting time. We hadn't lost ALL the leaves by the creek, so it was PERFECT. We found the most beautiful glow and went to work. Now, it took a little bit of time to warm up, and I mean just a little bit of time. We hit up a few spots by the creek then headed to their family sign. I had always envisioned a silhouette shot of this family on their horses, so we had to rush up to the hill before we lost the light. They let me drive their Ranger to get up the driveway and instead of taking it up the hill...I ran. Yes, I had a four-wheel drive vehicle and I SPRINTED up the hill to catch the light. Needless to say...I'm STILL feeling it today! It's all good though, it was well worth it! :-)

 

I really wanted to get shots of ~G~ & ~A~ together. I think it's extremely important to have photos of couples even when they have kids. It all started with two ♥

 

 

 

Just love them!!

 

Such a good looking family, they make my job easy!

 

Got the furry children in their too!

 

The newest addition to the clan, Gracie

 

 

These two did a lot at the fair this year, they work really well together

 

 

Oh Shadda wanted to hunt after this shoot, so badly!

 

This was a shot ~A~ had in mind, it turned out really good, even though the guys were "shooting" into the sun!

 

Oh and this was THE shot I wanted!!

 

Love how this one turned out too!

 

 

 

Like I said before I love this family to pieces and was so happy to capture these moments for them! I hope to continue to "shoot" this family through the years!!
