The Parish Family

Posted on Jan 24, 2011 at 3:05 PM in Photography

My time with the Parish family exemplified everything I love about my job. Super fun family, plenty of time to capture their great personalities, and superb lighting. Really, God pulled out all the stops on the light this afternoon in Pioneers Park and it was gorgeous. Also, I love this fun middle school stage that Bryce and Marshall (the Parish kids) are in. Watching them reminded me of all the times my brothers and I half-wrestled/half-hugged each other.

Karen, it was a joy to photograph your family! I’m kind of glad it took me so long to post the images on my blog—now it’s a pleasant reminder of warm sunny fall days in Lincoln, Nebraska! It won’t be winter forever… right?

    Lovely, Rebecca! I especially appreciate “North! Or Be Eaten!”

    Why are middle schoolers today all so much cooler/less awkward/well groomed/beautiful/fashionable/etc/etc than when I was in middle school? Don’t they know you’re not supposed to have any good photos from age 8-18 (approximately)?

    I’ll second what Bethany said. Bryce has good hair, skin, eyebrows, clothes–NONE of which I possessed between the ages of yeah, 8-18.

    You do such a good job with families (of all ages!), Rebecca! Someday you’ll have to take ours, because whoa, the “cluster around the fireplace and smile” pics aren’t cutting it anymore.

    Bethany & Lindsey…I have the same thoughts when I look at Senior pictures. Why do they all look so sophisticated nowadays? Unfortunately, there is still plenty of middle school angst underneath the stylish clothes & great hair. Sarah M…Bryce says she is tired of people asking if we are sisters. Yeah, I’m not sure I’m buying that one.

    Anyhoo, Rebecca did a fabulous job. The whole time I kept thinking if nothing else she’ll get some good shots of Bryce (always the photogenic one). Boy did she. And then some. A shot of Marshall playing his guitar in the grass is a favorite among so many. She even managed to make John and I look pretty good. Thanks Rebecca. Can’t wait to do it again someday!

    I love the shot of Marshall in the grass! I’ll throw that on the blog at some point. :)
