An other…. beautiful family…
We are now in France. Paris was all white, and when we drove home from the Marseille airport, snow was falling steadily. We woke up to a delightful scenery, overnight enough snow had collected to make a thin white blanket everywhere around us. My parents’ house is mildly decorated by american standards, but is still in a very festive mood with the huge family gathering we are having. It’s warm inside by the fireplace (the real thing, wood burning giving a true winter smell and feel). It’s …heaven. I will try to post some pictures of our outings. While I would be content rooting all day in the house enjoying my family (we can talk for hours), Henry much prefers taking day trips, with some cultural flavor. More about that soon. In the mean time, I wanted to share some images from an awesome family. The weather wasn’t much cooperating on our first try, but the second time around, it was ideal.
Beth Ann,
Walker and Peyton,
Matthew,
Some sibling love,
Walker has the good looks. Seriously, everyone in this family does, they’re all stunning. I predict lots of worries for the parents when these gorgeous children all reach their teens…
Rocky and Brett, a really cool team. Parenthood to 4 kids definitely requires a great deal of involvement from the parents. I’ve heard Rocky describe herself as a taxi driver to 4 busy children. Her commitment is paying off, they are all 4 very accomplish in all domains, sports and academics alike.
Arielle,
You are a truly gifted photographer. You captured our family so well. It is going to be hard to choose. Hope you have a great trip. Merry Christmas!
What a goodlooking bunch!
Arielle,
Your photographs are exceptional.
Mrs. Arielle,

Arielle, your photographs are still so wonderful, I love your creativity, and the personal writing you put into every post. You really get to know your subjects and that makes your photography so much more brilliant. I'm very happy you have this blog.
Please post pictures from France? (I'm such a Francophile myself!) :)
Happy 2010 to you and your family.
Arielle - I've done a horrible job @ posting on other people's blogs, so I'm making a feeble attempt to play catch up. Love this family shoot. You got a lot of variety and did an awesome job of capturing their spirit! Well Done!
The Parra family is absolutely gorgeous--and kudos to Arielle for capturing their beauty and warmth. Love, love, love these pics!
Amanda is correct! You are so talented. Enjoyed all of you gallery!
You can tell that this family is so comfortable around you - and that is a great compliment for a photographer. I know how hard it can be to help people feel at ease in front of the lens and you have done this well.
