I was so happy to finally meet Nikki and her beautiful family over the weekend.  She has been waiting so patiently for family photos!  The weather kept us on our toes and we experienced several seasons during our half hour session!  

Nikki had her arms full of extra clothes and the diaper bag, while Jonah kept the huge puppy Koa calm; so I had the privilege of carrying new baby Kruz to our photo location.  Big sister Kailani was a bit shy but was happy to tell me how great of a sister she is while she chased magpies around the park.  The huge trees provided some great shelter from the hail that hit us half way into our session, as well as blocked out the wind at the start.  The sun was behind a cloud for the entire session, supplying the perfect light for the photos.  Everyone in the family were fantastic models.  Koa even sat with me while I took 'people pictures', and little Kruz slept the whole time.

This beautiful family are going to be featured in the Evanston Great News magazine next month.  Be sure to look at the full article and photos on my facebook and in print to get to know these awesome people!
