"I think that we are the oldest family that you've photographed," said Laura as we walked toward our first location. They may have been the oldest, but they also get the most fit award! Mind you, John is an Ironman, Kaela and Nic are animals in the water, and Laura does just about everything, including biking with me! So, I felt that it was only appropriate to end their shoot with a tug of war. I originally considered doing a battle of the sexes, but was worried that the ladies might crush their competition too badly (that one's for you Kaela!) :) Then, it was either Nic or Kaela's idea to put John in the hot seat to take on the entire clan. I LOVED this idea-so of course, I had to steal it and use it. Veins bulging, game face frozen, muscles rippling, John totally held his own!
Thank you Tuttle's for toting all of my stuff around (what a treat), and for a great shoot. I could feel the love in your family, what a wonderful thing! Also, a huge shout out to Laura's mom Gabriella, who saved the day, as dog watcher and screen holder extraordinaire! I couldn't have done it without your help!
