fortier family part 1~

there are so many pics to choose from that i am dividing this post into two parts. at the beginning of november i got together with the fortier family. not only are they members of my church, but i also have their son andrew in class. when they suggested doing their session at their home, i was thrilled to do the shoot in their own setting. the fortiers were a pleasure to work with…i’ll let the pictures speak for themselves~

.

i awarded them the prize for coolest backyard ever. you will see why in the pictures below.

.

did i mention coolest backyard? this would be the top of their tree house that you access through a trap door.

.

.they said they wanted a “fall” feel to their photos–i think the colorful trees provided just that!

.

.andrew is so fun to have in class because he is one of those students that just makes you smile (in a good way)…you never know what he’s going to come up with, but it is guaranteed to make you laugh. i love 8th graders!
