The beginning of Christmas…

The beginning of Christmas…

The Christmas at our house starts, when the whole family descends on the local store to pick up the Christmas Tree.

Then we pull out the boxes of lights and ornaments and we spend the next few hours listening to Christmas music, and decorating the tree like this:

Best time ever. Merry Christmas to all!

Halloween at the Sokulski house it’s always a fun event.   A week before we decorate the house, then a day before we carve the brains out of the pumpkins.  As the kids are growing they are taking a more active role in the preparations…. although I cannot get them to watch a really scary movie with me yet.  The older one just got back…. he went with his friends, because his younger brother and dad are not cool enough anymore 🙂 ….. yes getting old…..

Continuing on the post from yesterday, here is the rest of the photos from the family photo session.  It was really a wonderful time, even when the kids got bored with all the cameras clicking away.  One thing I found is that as a photographer, I have to really pay attention, because moments go by very quick and I have to be ready to catch them.  Enjoy.

Families that plays together, stays together as they say.  I had a honor to capture such family recently.  We drove down to Vegreville, as my buddy Randy Pond, knows of a little quiet farm on the outskirts of town that was a perfect location for the photo session.  Since I never like posing portraits, I let the 3 girls run around and just play, then invited the parents to join in the fun.  Here are the results. Enjoy.
