If you've been following me for long, you'll know there's a soft spot in my heart for extended family sessions. Sure, more people can mean more chaos, but there is something SO fun about seeing a family all together laughing and interacting in ways you just can't replicate otherwise. I met the Froidcoeur family at SIUE Gardens on a crisp fall evening in October, and they kept me smiling and laughing from start to finish. From precious grandbabies to a newly engaged couple to some playful brotherly teasing, there were so many great memories to capture. The skies were cloudy that day, but we got the perfect amount of light peeking through to make this session turn out so beautifully. I think you'll agree with me when I say this session is full to the brim with sweet family memories that will last a lifetime.
