photo shoots & mosquito bites


Over the weekend I did two photo shoots... back to back!

It was hot and miserable and we were eaten alive by the horrible mosquito's! It wasn't a very fun experience to say the least. My nieces and nephews did a great job considering the circumstances. You wouldn't know by these pictures that we were swatting at mosquito's every 25 seconds, trying to keep them off the little kids. I have never experienced anything like it! I am still in awe over the mosquito fest, probably because I am still scratching to death and I counted 15 on one foot!

At least we got some cute photos through it all. They were all such great sports and cute subjects to capture! Thanks guys.

Here is my sister and her cute family:





And here is my brother and adorable sister-in-law:
(I am still editing the rest of their photos)

Now I am off to bed and hope that the lavender and peppermint oil will calm the terrible itching, so I can get some rest!

Love it Tracey! Thanks for everything! Love the bottom one of the boys. Precious. {You should have seen Jax's neck-like 12 bites-so sad. I guess the spray didn't work on him.}

These are adorable. A trick I was taught by a photographer regarding mosquitoes is a dryer sheet in your background pocket.

I have tried it and it seemed to work.

Oops, sorry. 'Back' pocket.
