Geertsema Family with Horses » Aldergrove Family Photographer

We’ve talked a while now about taking these photos. A year or two? But with Jaimee officially planning a move overseas and airplane tickets booked, it was time to make it happen.

There was some waffling on whether or not to have the horses in the photos, but c’mon! this is a family that loves their horses. I’m so glad that it worked out.

Hermen is not only the horse whisperer but also the dog whisperer. Bessie was incredibly co-operative and posed like no other dog I’ve seen. Not that I’ve photographed that many dogs, but usually after the first couple photos they are done.

I think this is my favorite family photo from their family session because it is exactly how I picture them. And it was one of the first photos from the session.

But there are many more good ones… like these of Hermen and Stephanie… so perfect!

You see that black and white photo? They are laughing at me. I’m holding the horses while photographing the family and I’m desperately hoping that nothing will spook the horses.

I also really really love this photo. So casual. I can see it printed big…

We had some really pretty light. That sunshine makes my day.

I always love a family silhouette.

So I’m officially in love with photographing horses and families. 🙂 So much fun!

Thanks for looking!
