The Trytten's

It was a beautiful fall weather when we took the Trytten's family portraits the day after Thanksgiving. I really love the way this family coordinated their outfits. The colors really balanced out nicely with the greens of the trees behind them.
My favorites are the outdoor family photos... they were taken on the family farm and have a lot more significance.
The one tree that they posed by is called the "chain tree" because when their mom was growing up there that's where they used to chain the horses up. It's her favorite tree on the farm.
Now, granted it might have been a little nicer to do the chain tree picture in the summer or fall before the leaves fell off, but even without them it's still very special and with a family picture this big... coordinating all those schedules... it's something you just need to do when you get the chance and not wait for the timing to be perfect... because life is just too short to wait to take a photo like this!
We also went back to my studio and did a few shots with everyone dressed in black shirts that will be timeless. I love the picture of the four "originals" with their mom. :)
Thanks for asking me to do this for you, Mary!
Enjoy,
