A Last Glimpse of Summer | Sweet Pickle Pictures | Manhattan KS Family Photographer

One weekend not so long ago, I got the privilege of spending a gorgeous late summer evening frolicking in the Kansas sunflowers with the F  family.  There is just nothing prettier to me than a field of sunflowers….unless maybe you stick a great looking family in the middle of them! Our location was a hair on the tricky side to get to, and I could tell you a really long story about some mud and calamity that all started with a forgotten camera battery, but I won’t. I will just let you look at pretty pictures and assure you it was all worth it in the end! Check out some of my favorites from this awesome session:)And if you want your own family session during Kansas sunflower season, keep in mind that they only last a couple short weeks and are usually in bloom at the end of August or the beginning of September!

I love this impromptu shot of the three of them :)

I’ve never had a child SO willing to sit on my little crate for me. Especially not an 18 month old! Little C was a pro!

So many sweet smiles made it hard for me to narrow down which shots to edit!

During family sessions I always try to pull Mom and Dad away for a few shots just by themselves. Luckily we had a good friend/babysitter on hand to handle Miss C which made it easy to get some great shots!

Sunflowers + gorgeous couple = happy photographer

Her little crooked smile sold me on this shot of Miss C!

One last family moment before the sun disappeared for the evening. A great end to a great session!

 

Looking for a Fall session for your family this year? Space is EXTREMELY limited, so now is the time to talk to me! I hate to pass on an opportunity to work with new or past clients, but this time of year is the busiest for photographers and unfortunately there is that holiday deadline looming!  I have decided to set aside my last available Saturday for mini sessions, so look for information on those very soon!
