Autumn photo shoots are my absolute favorite!  The colors of the leaves make such a beautiful background, especially when taken in the deep woods.  The brilliant gold and orange leaves mixed with the greens are just gorgeous! 

I adore this family.  They are friends of ours, and I thoroughly enjoyed our morning together.  This was their first outdoor photo shoot, but you would never know it.  Together we came up with some fun poses, and despite it being cold out, they never complained! 

I also love how they wore simple blue jeans with white shirts,
because it allowed the colors around them to really pop!
 

Their oldest daughter brought her friend along, so I managed to get a few photos of them together.
They were silly, and had a great time posing for me...totally comfortable in front of the camera!  See?  I told you in a previous post how 'kids' around this age love getting their photo taken.  Sometimes I think they don't even realize there's a camera around!  =)
