Family pictures and Jay's 1 year pictures

We spent some time earlier this month getting family photos and Jay's 1 year pictures taken.
Our friend and Photographer Chelsea Ellingson took the photos.  I really like that you get a CD of the edited pictures and you can print whatever you want without ridiculous printing prices.

Chelsea was super easy to work with and took some of my ideas and her eye for detail to make this a great photo shoot.

Here are a few of my favorites (and it is hard to pick just a few).  I will post more on facebook.

 It was a bit scary letting him sit up on the stool with cement below, but he LOVED it...and it worked:)

 John and I both kind of hate our feet, but the composition of this shot is so cool.

 Monkey was instrumental in making Jay laugh quite often.

 This pictures makes me giggle every time I see it.  Reckless abandonment with drum sticks.

 "help mom!"

 This one is a favorite of my family! CLICK on the picture to make it bigger for the full effect:)

 Mom and I got this chair at a garage sale for $4 last year.

So much fun!  I hope to do another post soon with a few other quirky pictures from the shoot.  Thanks Grandma S. for the clothes that we used for the photo shoot.
Thanks Chelsea!

Can anyone guess the location we used for the photo shoot?

Clue: The inside is a FUN place.  We were outside.
