The D Fam

I could not have been more excited when Jenie booked the pictures for her fam---

I was just about to explain why, but then I remembered you already saw a photo of them and their doll-faces above-- and don't want to insult you by assuming you need further explanation.Seriously-- doll faces. Brittany- one of my darling babysitters around the corner.Bailey: One of my darling Activity Day girls...

My favorite thing about this photo is Carson's face- and of course Bailey's perfect "Toyota" jump. I'm always asking them if they're best friends yet. They say no, but I don't believe them. They look like they are--- the whole family looks like they are, for real. Ask anyone who knows them and they will attest--- REMARKABLE amount of love and tenderness in this family. I was SO honored to try and capture it in photos. (And I didn't mind that they all have flawless button noses and smiley eyes.)And ONE awesome missing tooth.
I think Jenie wanted Bailey to hide these babies... sorry Jenie, we just had to get one for keeps. So festive. And SO Bailey.

There are few things in life as tender to me as a daddy and his daughter. And ..........I appreciate that Cody gives Ross hope. Two girls FOLLOWED by a boy...

and then of course another girl. But still.

Again with these blasted grey borders on my collages. Didn't notice 'till I uploaded and I am NOT starting over. Apologies. ;)

Me: "Ummm.... how about... jump on his back!

... not you Cody!"

I love this family.
