We planned this large family session for the Fogdall family for a couple of very good reasons. Jim and Judy are celebrating 50 years of marriage this year, and their actual anniversary was the DAY of the photo shoot. Their son and his family were visiting from Texas, and it's not everyday this family is ALL together!
We wanted to do an evening shoot, as we thought it would be cooler, and it had to be that Saturday. I was on vacation with my family until Friday, and the Texas Fogdalls were headed back home on Sunday! As we watched the weather forecast throughout the week, the chance of rain and storms kept increasing. The day of, we anxiously watched the radar and did our best to be arm-chair meteorologists with a prediction of the best hour to shoot.
We found a window of weather we could work with, it was pretty hot but a nice breeze kept it bearable for them. Their three grandsons had fun clowning around and kept everyone light-hearted. It was so nice to see Jim and Judy so sweet together, and joking around with their kids.
What a privilege to hang out with this family on a very special day in their lives, and document their lovely family. Wishing the Fogdalls many more happy anniversaries!!
