The Hiatt's Christmas

After doing my long time friend Tonya Hiatt's family pictures, I was delighted to receive a call from her sister & brother-in-law, Karen and Todd Hiatt. This was one of the easiest photo shoots I have ever done. They were a bit stressed at first, just like every family is at the dreaded "Family Portrait" time. The time when everything seems to go wrong, but I kept reassuring them, that everyone goes thru the Murphy Law blues when it comes to picture time and that we were all there to have fun and enjoy the picture taking experience. As you can see Karen and Todd have a absolutely beautiful family.

The Hiatt Family

Tonya Hiatt and I have been friends for about 7 years now and I absolutely adore her family. It is because of her that Gray and I decided to become foster parents, so without her, we would not have our three little miracles today. This was a family oriented photo shoot with her 3 biological sons, 2 adopted sons, and 1 (soon-to-be) adoptived daughter, her (soon-to-be) daughter-in-law, husband Chuck, and infamous mee maw !

Tonya: Thanks for allowing me to share this moment with you & your family !! I really enjoyed it.. tears & all !!!!
