Kirschner Family Vacation (Day 4)

The family pics were a big success! The weather was perfect, and all the little kids were in good moods for the most part. Here are a few of my favorites from the evening...











I'll show you the pics of Tricia, Gwyneth and I tomorrow!

  2. That last picture is great! Did you think of all those poses/arrangements? Do you want to come down to Mexico and photograph 11 little ones? ;) Looks like you had a wonderful day again! Praying for you Tric!

    I have never seen such a unique layout for including everyone... but grouped as families. If this is YOUR idea Nate... patent it!

  7. Great job. I especially like the last one, great idea! DId you use a tripod and timer or did you have someone shooting for you?

  12. Like I said Nathan, you not only know how to take a wonderful picture but you know how to take a picture that tells a story....
    those beach pictures are SLAMIN'
    I love them all but the last one, the expressions of love, joy, happiness and a lil' suprize is so very sweet, someone needs to make a copy for each family in the pic
    and maybe a blow up for Mom & Pop K
    that picture is WONDERFUL - TOTALLY THE BOMB...
    HAPY ANIVERSARY TOMORROW TRICIA & NATHAN, AND HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO SONNY TOO =) =) =) =)
    With Love & Prayers,

  24. I was thinking some of the ice cream pictures were my favorite so far..and then..there is the one of the colorful beach chair against the sand/house...or the one of the eyes close up with the gorgeous sunkissed cheeks...BUT as much as I loved the others, todays family shots ...take it to even another level.

    Bravo.

    ReplyDelete

  34. What an AWESOME idea to put the little family groups all in a row together - such a neat idea! Never saw that before, and would never have thought of that myself. Looks fantastic!

  42. Wow! The top is my favorite. That is such a neat way to put the families. I use our tripod on the beach to take all of our family as well. It looked a little windy but the pics are great. Happy Anniversary (sp?)!

    ReplyDelete
  44. Beautiful. The last one is GREAT!

    ReplyDelete
  45. Nate, Those family pictures are great. I love the segregated group shots. What camera setting do you use to get that washed out look. I have seen it before and love it. Is it an editing technique?

    ReplyDelete
  46. I enlarged the last one and cracked up laughing when I saw Gwenyth. Everyone else is so happy and animated and she's like, "Eh, so what?" Great pictures as usual, Nate!

    ReplyDelete
  47. Nate and Tricia-

  53. Joining the herd to tell you how much I love these photos. Great idea for the family "units" to be distinct, rather than a behemoth group picture.

    I also love how Gwyneth has her arms up in the first one. Almost like she's saying "Hooray"

    You and Tricia must have felt so much pride and contentment to be able to stand there and pose for that picture.

    ReplyDelete

  60. Love the pictures. So glad your girls are home to be in the pics. Did you use a timer and run into the pics.
    Also just curious if this is not to personal of a question is Tricia the only adopted child in her family or are some of the others adopted as well? Also tell us which ones are hr siblings. I know her two sisters that blog but the other families I am not sure if they are her brothers or sisters or in-laws?

  69. What amazing pictures! I especially like the top two with the separate families lined up along the beach and the last one with everyone gathered around the grandparents (I assume) kissing. Great job! It looks like everyone is so happy. I hope all goes well with the chemo, I'll continue to pray for you!!!!
