family photos

What’s your take on family photos??

I personally, abso-freaking-lutely LOVE them!! It’s so fun to look back on all the years and see the changes, we are a very blended family and have 4 kids, and my older kids get so excited about the family photos each year. I love that.

These photos were taken the summer of 2022, we do our family photos every year but this year felt different. It was me and my husband’s tenth wedding anniversary AND our oldest daughter was graduating, all the feels. So when thinking of what I wanted for this years photos- the first thing that came to mind this year is big, and well, whats bigger than Vegas. Enter the Neon Museum, it was perfect, all the funk, colors, and completely unique (not many people in Montana have family photos at the Neon Museum). All the old retro signs made for the perfect backdrop! The only thing I would have switched up was the time of the year we went. However, our window of opportunity to make these picture perfect family photos come to life was in July, and let me tell you in the words of Alan Jackson “it gets hotter than a hoochie coochie” when you’re visiting the desert in July. I’m pretty sure in some of the photos you could see the sweat running down our faces, I believe the temperature that day was 113 degrees F.

Straight. Up. Miserable.

Let’s just give a shout out to my family right now, for making this mama’s dreams come true. They really are the MVP’s here.

& here’s a photo straight from the snapchat with the degrees on it. So. Freaking. HOT.
