Escanaba Family Pictures | Michigan Photographer | The Hanson's

Each year we're together, my family aspires to take a holiday photo. Unfortunately, I think the last time we all had a picture together was 2007 - rides back to college, cats and "I can't find anything to wear!" have been the reason of our demise.This year as we kicked back after a delicious thanksgiving meal (and after eating enough of our Auntie Mary's bread to open a small bakery) I realized we still hadn't taken our christmas card photo! The stars aligned - it was dusk, the sun was setting perfectly on a 55 degree day - and we all we dressed in our thanksgiving best with our hair done...let's do this! It's clear Kaylee knows how to make us laugh (center)Then we had this other great idea to get on my dad's Harley - woo woo! Oh - and of course the cat had to get on.We titled this one "into the night".My middle sister, Melissa, is a great Cosmetologist - go see her sometime! The parents hopped on too! This picture is just perfect.We realized we didn't have a picture with everyone in it - and my dad had already gone inside. This is the face of a man who was inturrupted enjoying a post-thanksgiving meal bowl of my mom's yummy stuffing.Lastly - after we were all inside and people were digging into the leftover we again, realized we didn't have a picture with "all the kids!" After an hour of shooting we had still missed this combination. Though this photo isn't the greatest technically, we hope it says MERRY CHRISTMAS!Want to get in front of my camera?
