Elk Grove Family Photographer, The Berry Reunion!

The Berry's get the entire family together every two years. A family of 27! By the look of Ronaele, the matriarch, I still can't believe that she had 6 kids. SIX! So I was thrilled and honored to be asked to take pictures of their lovely family.
They were dressed to kill, in gorgeous fall colors, perfect for the setting at Russell Berry IV's (I think I got that right?) beautiful home amongst the vineyards.

What I didn't consider happening, was having so much help from the families in getting the attention of the little ones. Of course, I brought my usual arsenal of things, with the addition of two assistants on location. But the great dances, the funny inside tricks that each one knew the other liked were priceless!

My only regret was not taking a whirl on the swings hanging from the trees and the long climbing rope 30 feet to the top! Maybe if they ask me to come out again in another two years! I've got some training to do. :)

Thank you again to the entire 27!
