THIS WAS A FIRST!
WHEN DANIELLE SUGGESTED I TAKE HER FAMILY PHOTOS WHILE ON OUR CAMPING TRIP IN MAMMOTH LAKES, CA I WAS TOTALLY ON BOARD!
I’M EMBARRASSED TO ADMIT, IT’S USUALLY AN AFTER THOUGHT FOR ME; WE WILL BE ON THE TRIP AND THEN THINK “OH DARN! WE SHOULD HAVE PLANNED TO DO OUR FAMILY PHOTOS HERE! LOOK HOW GORGEOUS IT IS!” BUT THIS YEAR WE PLANNED AHEAD. THAT MEANT THAT ON TOP OF PACKING ALL THE CAMPING SUPPLIES WE HAD TO THROW IN FAMILY PHOTO OUTFITS ON THE PACKING LIST, AND ALSO FIGURE OUT HOW WE WERE GOING TO GET EVERYONE CLEANED UP AND PHOTO READY WHILE AT A CAMPSITE. LUCKILY WITH THE HELP OF OUR PARTNERS, AND A GENERATOR WE MADE IT HAPPEN!
It was fun to shoot a family photography session somewhere new-to-me. I also loved capturing this family because they are our close friends so to be able to capture some of the sweet expressions I see on these kiddo’s faces on the daily makes my heart happy. Take a look at their slideshow and comment if you’ve ever been to Convict Lake. It is STUNNING!
