Sunset, lake, dock, cattails, Autumn leaves, and lots of energy. These were our ingredients for Saturday's family photo shoot. My favorite part had to be when the family gathered a pile of Autumn leaves to toss them into the air. This was supposed to make a great shot of the leaves raining down on them. Great idea in theory. In practice, it all rained sideways into the Dad's face. Did not go as planned but these family shoots rarely do. And that is why I keep doing them, because they are completely unpredictable.
