The Etchison Family

I’ve been up to my elbows lately in family shoots and I’m kind of loving it.  It requires a little more laundry than usual, chasing after little ones and getting down to their level, which is usually covered in dirt.  I’ve spent hours sometimes picking thorns and brush out of my shoes and clothing for these gorgeous nature shots but when I come home with something like this, it’s totally worth it!

I spent some quality time at Irvine Regional Park with Little Nathan and mom & dad, Ashley & Matt.  I have this soft spot for little red-headed kids.  I just love red hair!  Isn’t he a cutie!?!

Silly Daddy was making silly faces too.

Lucky day, a real tractor!  Nathan is obsessed with trains and tractors.

Easily my favorite shot of the day.

“Hey Nathan, I bet you’ll fit inside that tree.”

Apparently it was pretty cozy too!  Ah kids, you never know what you’re gonna get.  This just cracks me up.

Just when I was sure the little guy was totally pooped, he decided we should all race back to the car.  Well, I didn’t exactly race but I caught some good mommy & kiddo action shots.  

Thanks for a fun day at the park!

These are fine photoes. Melissa (who we have not the pleasure meeting) has a good photographic talent. Great shots of Matt, Matt And Ashley. We bet the bride and groom are tremendously pleased with the shots of their wedding.
