No Excuse Moms Photos

A local fitness unit wanted me to take their pictures for part of the "No Excuse Mom Fitness" Campaign. Since I belong to the group...I agreed. This was the first time I had ever done anything of this nature, so it was a huge learning experience. I would love to have a second go at it to see how I could improve.
Even so, three of my pictures were published! One was used as the opening picture for the "NEM" website and two other were published on two different fitness websites annnnd I forgot to save the links!
Dangit!
The first three in this post are the ones that were published.
This was a really fun shoot. I love these girls.

Thomas Family

Nick and Jessica have hearts as big as... well as big as their family. Trying to get ten little kiddos to sit still and look at the camera is harder than trying to braid a cat's hair. Having said that, this group of ten children was so sweet. They loved each other. They helped each other. They played with each other. They were friends. And they sure loved their mom and dad. And the baby! Oh! I wanted to take her home with me!
This was actually a very short shoot as a storm was blowing in. The kids kept yelling and pointing, saying, "I saw lightening!"

Alana is so precious. 9 months can pass in the blink of an eye.
Why does time seem to speed so quickly when you want it to take it's time.
Stop growing, baby. Mommy wants to hold you a little longer.

 Graduation day is a mixture of excitement and apprehension. Don't you think? On the one hand you are accomplishing a goal that you have worked for since you were 5 years old. On the other hand, now you have to enter the real world and be responsible.
Enter the proud Mama! This boys mom is so excited and proud of her son. And begrudgingly he agreed to take pictures. Only a few. And he wasn't doing and "posing." Haha!
 Isn't he handsome?!
You did good with your boy, Aurora!
