A Family Shoot: The Utterback Clan

I have been so excited about posting this shoot! It's been hard to finish though because we have been really busy with life; we are moving houses, the Holidays, eating an insane amount of junk food, the usual for us around this time of year :) Emily and I were talking and it dawned on us that we have moved every holiday season that we have been married (well, technically only SHE has moved because she moved in with me when we tied the knot :). One of these days we will settle down and stay put, but for now we are continuing the tradition.

On top of all of that, we went up to Prescott to spend a few days at a cabin for Christmas. We had originally planned on shooting the Utterback family's shoot earlier but we got rained out :( As it happened, it worked out really well to do the shoot on Christmas Eve on our way up to the cabin. We stopped over in Scottsdale and then went on our way after the shoot.

Now the Utterback family is pretty big :) There were 20 of them! That's not your usual family photo shoot so there were always plenty of things to take pictures of. We had an amazing time with them and I must say, their kids did awesome! 10 kids and all did great :) It was a really energetic shoot with all those little fire crackers running around, climbing on trees, racing horses, etc :) Here you go and I hope all of you had a great Christmas!

We really enjoyed working with you guys and were so glad that all of you were able to set some time aside to do photos, even though it was Christmas Eve :) I hope you all enjoy your New Years!
