The holidays are a fabulous time to get updated extended family photos! The Willoughby’s wanted extended family photos while everyone would be home, and what a great way to celebrate the holidays! We were missing one brother who was away at boot camp, but we still had a fantastic morning together.

Nancy and I started planning for this session back in September. She knew Ross and Paige would be in town right around Christmas so we set the date early and started planning! Having one family member missing is always tough. But, I think that means we just have to do more photos the next time everyone is together 😄

We met bright and early the Saturday before Christmas at Lions Bridge. Even though it was chilly, God blessed us with a beautiful morning for photos!

Jack tends to steal the show wherever he goes 😍 You may remember him from his cake smash back in October!

While Mom and Dad were taking pictures, Grandma and Grandpa entertained Jack!

There is nothing quite like the love between a grandma and her grandchild.

Rodney and Nancy were friends when they were teenagers and have been married now almost 40 years (on June 16th!). They have built such an incredible life together and are such a wonderful example of God’s love.

Of course we couldn’t go to Lion’s Bridge without getting some photos with the lions decked out in their holiday gear!

Rodney and Nancy, thank you so much for sharing your sweet family with me, both for photos and in everyday life! Your marriage is a wonderful inspiration of a life lived for Christ. David and I are so thankful to have you in our lives.
