Well I am back with some awesome pictures to share! The fence was a success!!! Amy our photographer LOVED it so much she wants to buy it! ha ha ;) The hardest part was pulling together a family look that didn't look too matchy matchy. I first found material that had all the colors from our living room in it (because that is where the pictures will be hung). I made Abby a skirt from it, and made a cute flower pin for her little brown sweater. If you would like I could do a tutorial on that, just let me know ;) Next I found Greg and Cole's shirts from Target, and I already had the brown jacket from Cato's... It was finally coming together. I hung all the outfits on the
fence, just to see if it was going to pull out the blues and reds. It looked great so we were good to go!
I thinking having a GREAT photographer is definitely the KEY to amazing pictures! Amy from
Murphy's Memories Photography was awesome with our kids!
When I wanted to cry and pull my hair out because they were not cooperating, she was calm, cool, and collected. (Just what they needed) Because of that she was able to get 62 amazing proofs! I couldn't believe she got that many from what to me seemed like utter chaos. ha ha
Ok lets look at some pics!
I think the red ric rac I put at the bottom hem was the perfect touch! Don't you just LOVE the adorable Flower pin I made out of scraps!!!

So what do you think, will you be painting a fence panel for your next family session? ;)
We were just happy it was over :P
I cant wait to plan out my collage wall!!! I am pulling inspiration from Shelley over at
House of Smiths (she is amazing and I got so many ideas from her family photo tips) I will post updates when I get it started!
