I have to admit – I absolutely ADORE big families … they make my heart jump for joy! And when I get a call to photograph a family with multiple children, I know it wil be a fun and exciting session! Some photographers might be “nervous” to shoot more than one or two children, but I love it.
I love the interaction of a large family, I love the happiness, the giggles, the natural feeling, the overall joy that surrounds the children … and the Sturgeon family was just that. So much fun!
First off, let me just say that Jason (the dad) is a wonderful, AMAZING website designer – he designed my website and I love how he read my mind and made it suit Gigi Photography to a “t”! We’ve been working together for five years and he’s always done such a wonderful job with everything is designs and creates. (He also designed my hubby’s website.)
Secondly, wow, this family drove a LONG drive to come get their photos taken … and they still looked amazing and were in good spirits! Thank you for making that HUGE drive to our little town of Orangeville …
On, now onto the photos … There is just someting so special about this family in particular …
To us, family means putting your arms around each other and being there.

Momma and her girls … aw, man, they are just the cutest!
Dad & his boys … I love a great dad and son shot!
This image just warms my heart- their oldest, Andrew, with their youngest, Heather (who was the cutest thing ever!) …

all the kidlets … oh, they are just sooo cute!
(Don’t worry, mom, I have photos where they are all looking at the camera and smiling, but I just loved the interaction of this shot …)
and you can’t forget the parents …
Hope you enjoy your sneak peek! 🙂
