The Nolan Family | St. Louis Family Photography

It’s that time of year again – fall family photos! I was so excited to see this sweet family again. (Mom says, “do you know how hard it is to get 3 girls and myself ready for a photo shoot!?”) Yes!! 😉 So it was time for kiddo #3 – Molly’s 18th month session! Time has just flown by since I last saw her just 10 days old. She can certainly make a fierce serious face – and Mom says she makes that face a lot. 🙂 Since we did the shoot in Forest Park, the hospital was just east of us and we could hear several helicopters taking off during our session. Miss Molly pointed to the helicopter in the sky, forming a big “O” with her mouth shouting “helicopter!” “helicopter!” I mean how cute is that?! That has to be the sign of a genius kid, right?

After seeing how much she has grown, I had to go back and revisit her newborn photos. I was cracking up with the behind-the-scene image with her two sisters. That pretty much sums up this shoot too. Families are one of my favorite sessions, but also the most challenging… especially getting 5 or more people perfect! It’s so hard to get that “perfect” shot! (whatever that is) But I do I strive for something sweet and real, and I’m okay if it’s not posed. I’m glad my clients think so too.

Enjoy the photos!
