Welcoming a new baby is always a special occasion, but when it’s the sixth little one in the family, the energy and love multiply! Recently, I had the absolute joy of photographing this wonderful crew as they celebrated the arrival of their newest addition. Let me tell you, spending time with them was an experience I won’t forget.


From the moment I arrived, it was clear this family was something special. Each child had such a unique personality, and they were all so sweet and welcoming. Instead of it being stressful, it was just peaceful, which is rare. It’s not every day you meet a family of eight, with six kids under 10, who are so interested in getting photos taken, listen so well, and make you feel like part of the family immediately. What also made just an impact was how mom approached the session. She wanted to capture the essence of their family, the real, beautiful chaos that comes with having six kids and trusted me to document whatever that looked like. She didn't expect perfectly posed shots, just authentic moments of love, laughter, and connection. And honestly? That’s my favorite way to shoot.


There were toys on the floor, bursts of laughter (and the occasional squabble, let’s keep it real), and so much joy in every corner of their home. The older kids were eager to show off their new sibling and fought over who would hold her next. It was a whirlwind of activity, but that’s what made it so great. During the session, I was reminded of how fleeting these moments are. The days might feel long now, but these little ones will grow up in the blink of an eye. Capturing their dynamic as a family of eight was preserving a piece of their history. I hope these photos serve as a reminder of just how special these chaotic, love-filled days are, and serve as a reminder to my other clients to just embrace the chaos during your photo session. Relax and don't expect perfection, because these days are perfection just as is.


If you’re a family looking to embrace your own version of chaos and love, let’s connect! I’d love to help you freeze these moments in time and help you tell your story.
