I know I say this about every family, but it’s always true!  The Kim family is one of my most favorite families.  What can I say?  I love all of my families!  I’ve known them for a few years now and have shot their youngest son’s baptism, all of their birthday parties, and their family pictures.  Petra and Ray have always welcomed me with open arms and they’ve been SO supportive of my business.  You would think that Petra would be too busy with three young boys, but she is so extremely generous and thoughtful.  Anyone that can call Petra a friend is very lucky.  Petra is also a great photographer herself!  She shot some pictures of Brayden and I when we went over for a play date this summer and they meant so much to me because I’m always the one behind the camera and don’t have very many pictures of Brayden and I together.  And I love Petra even more now because when she emailed me to ask about family pictures she said she wanted to do them anywhere but the beach!  You’ve got to love that!  Okay, onto the pictures!

Meet Alex!  Can you guess how old he is?

Alex is obsessed with Thomas the Train and orders special trains from England!  He’s a Tae Kwon Do master (not karate!).  But, I’m sorry ladies.  This 7 year old is taken

Meet Nicholas.  

He’s all boy and likes guns (that kind of sounds bad, but I promise it’s not).  He’s such a sweet little guy and is a great listener.  Especially when you give him lots of M&M’s

Meet Ryan.  

He’s the baby, but don’t let that fool you.  He doesn’t let his big brothers pick on him!  While all the boys have grown up since I’ve known them, it seems that Ryan has grown up the most.  When I first met him he was so little.  He couldn’t walk or talk and now he’s such a big boy!

Here are the rest of the family pictures.  Thank you to the Kim family for being so willing to get down and dirty and for braving the cold!  It was so much fun!  Here’s your slide show!

I think this might be my new favorite picture that I’ve ever taken!
