St. Luke's United Methodist Pumpkin Patch was the location of this year's Kurth family portrait, but with a twist. G-ma, G-Pa & Aunt L were in attendance. The kids had fun exploring (the youngest with his mouth :) the pumpkins and obliged me with a few "look at the camera" smiles.
For those of you who don't know, Derek was my first friend at Texas A&M. Never would I had imagine that when I answered my dorm door to this stranger (wondering how he got in a locked dorm) he'd one day be father of three and I'd annually photograph his sweet family.
Of course that was about two years before he met his beautiful wife
which always seems to change a guy into to words like responsible
and less mischievous ... well, responsible at least.
We came to the pumpkin patch for a photo that looked something like this:
But of course this one is my favorite:
Baby D has won the Kurth Family Funniest Baby Photo (that I've taken) Award:
His inquisitive smile cracks me up every time I go through the photos.
And then the "Klassic Kute Kurth Kids" photos which are a staple of every shoot with them:
I think the best thing with age is gaining life experiences and being old enough to say to kids, "I remember when your parents went on their first date." What a privilege to be witness to a family from it's beginning and see the children you've prayed for grow and become their own persons.
