heather and dave brought all five of their kids out from arizona for a photo shoot with me. it was heathers christmas present! how adorable is that? when we first met-i couldnt help but think “this is what people feel like when they meet MY family” only, she has one more than i do.
four girls and a guy, and they are all gorgeous, adorable, and really really good kids. i just love big families.
the jumping shot-a new favorite of mine-it always loosens up the crowd.
a change of clothes and another jump shot.
gorgeous pictures~!!
I come from a family of two kids, who dont really like each other – and I have one child (no more coming!) and have started to feel the effect of a small family. :) I was ‘adopted’ by a BIG family in my late teens and it is chaotic and wonderful. :) :) What a wonderful Christmas present. briliant post processing (as always) and a wonderful way to capture them ALL!
How come you don’t post links to the entire albums any more?
these are so awesome, what type of camera/lens are you using? I know you prolly get asked that all the time :)
Love that last one!!!
Alissa
I adore them all!! you truly work magic with that camera.
i just love your stuff! :o)
i love the pop of colors in the top 2!! awesome pics!
These are so SOOOO good! I am continually impressed with your work. Thank you again for sharing your talent with these beautiful families and on the web! Merry Christmas
Great color!! Did you make your own actions or what?? There is magic in your camera…
wow those are truly wonderful!
Oh..I love them all! The last 3 are the prettiest I think I’ve ever seen you do. Great Work!
Tara, if this is 2006 material, can’t wait to see what you have in store for 2007.
Gorgeous photos of the two girls up close in B&W — love those freckles.
The jump shots are so fun. How come mine never turn out like this? LOL
Merry Christmas!
These are just awsome!! Wow – big family…
I love all of them .. love the candid shots!!
LOVE the shot from down low in the sand!!! Totally cool!!
WOW.. Tara… really no words my friend.. amazing stuff. you continue to be amazing and get better and better with each shutter release
Love these – all the color is great.
hi
I really like your pictures! And I have to tell you, I come from a family of 5 girls ;-). Daddy absolutly wanted a boy and just had one try after another ;-) !
Hugs Eve
Fab shots!!!!
Beautiful, Tara!
I, too, am wondering what became of the links you provided to albums you made of individual shoots. Miss ’em (although I bookmarked about 20 of them). I would always forward them on to friends and they were TERRIFIC for inspiration.
Please, please consider bringing them back!
Awesome as always Tara. I love the jump shots. I have been wanting to do that forever and have just been waiting for the right family. Definitely looks like you had the right family for it! Love them!
You are my photography HERO.
Hi Tara,
Ive been lurking around for some time and have always thought your photos were lovely and so amazing.
Then I saw this post, and I just had to comment..
These pictures are awesome!!
The color is gorgeous and the family connection is fab!
I wish I lived in the States so I’d have some sorta chance of getting a session with you.
*thanks for letting me rave*
I really love your work :D

Tara, just wanted to say you’re inspiration in those larger family type issues.
Nice job. :)

Amazing photos!
WOW! What a fun day! Cute family! Love the last shot, and those girls eyes are WOW!
