Eagan Family Photography at Lebanon Hills

Hello world! I’m starting a blog for Lightbound Photography! This is where I’ll share what I’ve been up to, photographically speaking, and give the world a chance to see how a photo session usually goes and see all the photos that go along with them. I’m starting off with my first-ever session: an Eagan family photography session!

This was my first family photography session as a professional, and it was for my cousin-in-law, her wife, and their two incredibly sweet kids! They were hoping to get some family photos and a bunch of fun, smiling photos of the kids. I was super nervous and had dragged along my husband to model for a practice shoot the morning before. I picked out all of the spots we would shoot and even made him pose. (He puts up with so much!) But it made the shoot go so smoothly on the day-of because I had a plan for the session.

For this Eagan family photography session we spent the morning hopping around Lebanon Hills Regional Park with Casey, Jaden, and their moms. There were so many other photographers there doing family sessions, as it was a Saturday morning, but we found some spots out of the way and were able to get the kids in some natural poses without feeling stiff or rushed. The kids loved hamming it up for the camera!   The bridge at Lebanon Hills Regional Park was in high demand with the other photographers but when we got our chance to use it, the kids definitely made the most of it. I loved snapping shots of Casey dancing around and showing off his moves! And I love how spunky Jaden is in this shot. I told the kids to turn around and look at me, and she whipped around with such attitude! Love that girl!Lebanon Hills was a great spot for Eagan family photography. I’d definitely go there again!
