{ family pictures }

We decided to do family pictures before the baby came and I'm so happy that we did! I LOVE how our pictures turned out and it's so nice to have pictures of the 3.5 of us! 

Matt always jokes that family picture day is the worst day of the year, but this year it was great! I tried not to stress so much, because I know a lot of the tone of the shoot is attributed to the parents (cough). So all you parents out there make sure that you are happy and relaxed so your kids are too! And bring lots of snacks to bribe your kids with.

My friend Jalene from J. Taylor Photography (who is totally sweet and fabulous) took our photos. It was seriously so fun and I enjoyed being in front of the camera instead of behind it. Matt and Berkley are still very much against getting their pictures taken, but I think even they will tell you that it was enjoyable.
