A fun afternoon

This afternoon I had the opportunity to do another family portrait session. My sister-in-law's mom, dad, grandma, brother (and fiancee), and sister (with husband and son) were all up for a visit. And so with my brother's family there were 15 in total that I had the pleasure of photographing. Bonnie was at work and so Isaac came along for the ride.

We got to the place where the session was going to be about an hour early (since I'd only been there once 3 years ago) to scout the location, and so Isaac and I had some time to play before everyone got there.

Here's some of the fun that Isaac had.

















Then the whole crew arrived. This is one of the first group images I made. We ended up shooting for about an hour or so.



After which we visited for a while until the caterers came. The whole group plus a few other friends who came later were all staying for a meal. So Isaac had some fun playing croquet until the two of us came home for our own dinner.





We got home and had our meal and then Isaac watched Ice Age 2 followed by a much needed bath!

I spent the rest of the evening preparing for a busy day tomorrow. Bonnie and Isaac and I are going to my parents for breakfast after which I'm dropping Isaac off at my brother's place for a couple hours. Bonnie will come back to town with my mom, and I'm off to Houston for a meeting with the manager of the Houston Chamber of Commerce to discuss membership and the possibility of me doing some design work for them. Then I come back and have lunch with Isaac and and his cousins. Then I'll show my sister-in-law's parents the images from today and take their orders, and then Isaac and I will come home. Bonnie has to work tomorrow afternoon, and so with she and Isaac leaving on Thursday for Penticton, I imagine there'll be lots to do to get ready.

So all in all it was a good day today and lots to look forward to tomorrow.
