Watching families is sort of my hobby. I dont mean to sound creepy but I love watching how they interact from behind my lens and imagining what it was like for that mom and dad to raise their kids. And then I start imagining the JOY they have seeing their kids get married and their first grandchild be born! Every stage of family is amazing to behold!

Large extended family photo by Be Thou My Vision Photography

Gathering this many family members in one place at the same time is never easy, but oh so worth it! What a joy to photograph grandparents, children and their spouses and grandchildren together! Having portraits to hang on your walls for years to come showing the blessedness of family is always worth it!
