Casual Extended Family Portraits

Tomorrow I am headed to the MN Blogger Conference which will officially kick off my season of whirlwind busyness. In addition to regular family sessions, several dates of mini-sessions, a day at the Twin Cities Birth & Baby Expo and an afternoon at Baby Love to help celebrate their one year anniversary, I will be at FIVE (maybe more!) preschools to do some fun & relaxed school portraits. Phew! So, I figured I’d better get a blog entry up while I can!

I shared a sneak peek of this session in the Anatomy of a Family Portrait entry. I don’t photograph many extended family sessions but this group sounded like so much fun and stressed that they were looking to capture their group but weren’t looking for the “perfect” family photo. We met at a Minneapolis park, after they’d all been to a Twins game, and did some posed portraits and some candid interaction shots.

Thanks to my friend Tom of Tom Dunn Photography for sending this fun bunch my way. He’s decided to focus his work on business branding and marketing images so take a peek at his work if you’re in need of those.
