A coule weeks ago, Michelle emailed me to see if I was interested in taking some family portraits for her dad’s 60th birthday. At first I didn’t know what to say since I had never done it before but agreed since it would be good experience and there was no real pressure.

So, yesterday, we all went to the park across from her parents’ house in Fountain Valley and took some shots. It was about 3:00 pm in the afternoon (DST) and there were plenty of trees, rocks, hills, and a lake. It was actually pretty fun but a little challenging trying to keep both Ryan and Michelle’s brother, Eric, in line. It was either Ryan making faces or Eric giving us the “Chandler smile” in every photo. We ended up with a few good shots with good lighting but the deciding factor for whether a photo turned out right was the look on Eric’s face. Were his eyes open? Did he have a squint? Does he look like he’s in pain? It was pretty funny.

Here are some for you to see…
