Last year when Abbe contacted me about shooting portraits of her sibling group of 10, I was a bit daunted, but did it... and had a blast. This year, there was no hesitation because this is my favorite family ever to photograph!! Okay, so I haven't really done a ton of family work since I mostly gear my work toward individual and couples portraits... but it will take some
really spectacular family to top the Powers. Their impeccable style, and how they effortlessly pull together the coordinating-but-not-matching look, combined with the fact that they're all ridiculously photogenic, makes my job so easy.
I had a fabulous time shooting these photos for their parents anniversary gift (very belated... haha, long story!). Enjoy!!
It got a little windy!
We can't be forever serious... the tractor was too good a prop to pass up. :-)

Does this look like a magazine? Yes? I agree. Thank you, Abbe, for being fantastic.
Yes! Stripey straws!!!

ReplyDeleteAbsolutely fantastic. These photos look like straight out of a magazine.
ReplyDeleteWow, Kathryn! These are some really great photos! I bet the parents were thrilled!
ReplyDeleteKathryn! Thank you so much for putting up with our crazy! And for showing up at our house to shoot these at 10am on a Saturday morning. Mom & Dad were delighted, which was the whole point. Thank you again for your hard work!
ReplyDeleteWait... wasn't it 8:30am?? ;-) I love "putting up with" your crazy.... it's the best kind of crazy I've ever seen!
DeleteGreat people. =) The shot with the tractor is hilarious.. but the beach ball photos are for sure my favorite. ^_^ Good work, Kathryn!
ReplyDeleteThese pictures make me happy!
ReplyDeleteWow, I love how you incorporated so much into their portraits, Kathryn! The beach balls, tractor, and outdoor sitting area were such fun ideas, and I love how the ones of them all under the tree with the ladder turned out! You did great working with such a large group, and posing? You do great with that, too. ;-)
ReplyDeletegreat pictures again Kathryn! And I agree: what a photogenic family. Very nice, Oma
ReplyDeleteGreat pictures! Gotta love big families. :D
ReplyDeleteLOVE these, Kathryn - you did such a fabulous job and I am so inspired! I too love the coordinating outfits and the location is pretty fabulous, too. =) Blessings!
ReplyDeleteThese are beautiful! And I'm impressed with how well you handled such a large number of people. Keep up the good work! :)
ReplyDeleteIs it just me or in the aerial shot, does the guy on the top left look like Chris Evans in Captain America? Also, I just want to say that I love your blog. I'm only 15, but when I get married, I want you to take my pictures. All of your pictures are so good!
ReplyDeleteThese are incredible. Definitely magazine worthy!
