The O'Malley Family [Lancaster Family Photographer]

Molly contacted us a month ago wanting to get portraits done for her Holiday Cards. We were pretty excited because we met Molly back in June when we did Headshots for the salon that she works at.

We headed not far down the road to meet her husband and three adorable (yet very full of energy) little boys. It was tough to wrangle them all in to get the shots but we have our tricks and we got some great ones. These boys sure do have great personalities!

It was a pleasant surprise to get an email from Jessie inquiring about a portrait session. She asked if I remembered who she was, and of course I did! We photographed Jessie and Tim's wedding back in September of 2008. They were one of our first couples to really trust our photography skills and allow us to do something a little out of the box. We loved working with them and we were so excited to meet their daughter Evelyn. We can not say enough about how amazing Evelyn was. First of all... she's seriously one of the most gorgeous babies ever. Second, she was the happiest baby we've ever worked with! She didn't once cry and was constantly smiling! We loved working with this family again and we hope we get to keep up with them as Evelyn grows!

I was incredibly excited when I was contacted for this shoot. Vanessa was a family friend since WAY back when we were kids, and I hadn't really spoken to her or seen her much in quite a few years. It was incredibly exciting to meet her husband Joe and their two boys, Dexter and Tenzin.

We met them at Rock Ford Plantation here in Lancaster for what turned out to be a perfect afternoon. The boys had a great time running and gathering leaves, and Vanessa and Joe even got a few quiet moments with just the two of them, something in short supply, no doubt!

All too soon, we were saying our goodbyes, but we truly hope it won't be such a long time before we get to see Vanessa, Joe, Dex and Ten again!

As you know, we have been shooting Melissa and Glenn's family for almost two years now. This year, Melissa contacted us wanting to do a large family shoot most of her siblings (sadly two of them couldn't be there for this day) as a surprise Christmas present for their parents. We had a great time getting some silly shots of the entire family and ended the day with individual family shots.
