the matles family.

I always admire families who choose adoption.  on both ends.  i'm sure it's never easy, and have nothing but respect for anyone who can withstand its weight.  that said, i have high regard for my friend bonny and her husband justin, who have adopted three perfect darlings in the past few years.  this was a session that she wanted to be really special, to remember her babies getting to see their two older sisters. also as a gift to honor their maternal grandmother.  
we met at an old plantation from the 1800s, and were the only souls there.  i'll admit i was a little creeped out at first, but i didn't have any time to think about it once the kids were let loose! haha.   i'll be the first to admit that i have no tips for collecting and corralling 6 kids under 7.  but what fun! 














here's a tip for getting everyone in the shot: employ one of the kids! haha. i kid, she did this all on her own!
