One of my all time favorite things is family….now perhaps I am biased, as I love spending time with my grandparents, parents, siblings, uncles, aunts and cousins.  However, I think that there is something special and simply wonderful when EVERYONE gets together for a family picture.  It is such a gift when you see all of the generations together and interacting. Extended family sessions are a LOT of work for the person (or people) coordinating it with the various schedules, wardrobes and other needs….however it is so worth it in the end!  These pictures are not just keepsakes, but they are heirlooms.  Something that will be treasured for years to come.  They capture a moment in time that can not be revisited or repeated – and that is so special.

I had the wonderful privilege of spending time with the Solbak family one afternoon here in Fort McMurray.  Everyone was there… from grandma & grandpa and all the way down to the youngest of grandkids.  This group was great to work with and unfortunately our session was cut short by a spontaneous rain shower.  One of the families stayed to continue to play in the rain and I am so thankful.  There were so many other ideas that I wanted to do….however I’m glad that we were able to get the images that we did.

Here are just a few of my favorites from that day…
