Permentier Family shoot in Ferwert, Friesland

It is always especially fun to work with clients who are a little bit crazy in a good way, and the Permentier family definitely set a new standard for hilarity during our photoshoot a couple of weeks ago. I know Irene through Stichting Didi, and I had a great time with her sister-in-law, Christy (a fellow American in the Netherlands) and her brother Matthieu when I did a newborn shoot for their little girl, Eleanor, this spring. She has gotten even cuter since our first shoot, and she's a healthy, smiling addition to a family that is big on smiling.

From the point-of-view of a baby, all grown-ups seem even crazier than normal :)

...which they are!

Remco and Jessy have two sweet dogs, so I did a mini session for them back at the house.

After the full family shoot, Christy, Matthieu and Eleanor had a sweet shoot unto themselves in the woods.

Roar!
