Best Friend's Family Portrait

Today I shot a few family portrait shots of my best friend and her sweet family while they were visiting us. This was one of our favorites taken at the nearby Loveland Castle.

Christa and I have been best friends since we were 12. It's been so fun spending a few days with she and her family.
It's so nice having a visit like this - you wouldn't be able to stop talking! This photo has been nicely composed!

@abhijit @psychographer @moreyoulessme @eyesmile

Thank you all so much. They were pleased. And I am getting more practice on some good looking people. A win!

This is such a wonderful photo of your friend and her family. I would have cropped it more to bring them in closer. They came out so clear even with the brightness of light. Sounds like such a wonderful time.

@darsphotos Good idea. I liked the framing, but could have cropped it and kept the last one. Funny how shots are looking less good on here lately.

Great location and framing!
