Photo Shoot

Just 4 days after Owen was born, we went to visit my sister, Kara, to have her take our pictures. It was awesome to be able to have this done so soon with Owen, so we could capture just how new he looked (he is already starting to change!). With Dylan he didn't have his pictures taken until he was like 6 weeks old, so, it meant a lot to me to be able to capture these memories of our precious newborn. It was also nice to get some as a family. Kara sure did have her work cut out for her. We are so pleased with how they turned out. Thanks Kara!!!

The funniest thing about our shoot was how terrified Dylan was of the rubber chicken Kara uses as an attention getter for the kids she photographs. She pulled it out, and this was his expression.


Madeleine was there to protect him though!


Here are my favorite family shots. Just a heads up, some pictures I liked better in color and some I liked with different effects added.

I think ya'll are way more photogenic than Scott and I. The pictures are so cute. The big bro and little bro outfits are the cutest. I am so glad everything is going well with Owen as a new addition to the family. You lucky girl!
P.S. I'm amazed you were able to get a picture of Dylan without his cars. That boy is obsessed!

Cassie's right about Dylan and the cars!
I do love the pictures. I'm not sure which ones are my favorites though the one with Owen on your back is way cute.
You and Owen have both changed a good bit since then. Glad the (recent) memories were captured.
(And how luck are y'all that you have a photographer/sister who specialized in babies?)

Oh! and two more things. I also LOVE the "big bro/lil bro" outfits and pictures AND I'm thinking you need to get one of those rubber chickens to keep Dylan in line. "Dylan, don't come out of your room till I tell you to or the chicken will get you..." What do you think, huh?
