Attempting to take a family photo with a VERY BIG (AND SQUIRMY!!!) fur child // A Sequence

12 Jan 2015































#blesshisheart. He was a bit, panicked.

Fact. You can't make a 250 lbs English Mastiff do anything he doesn't want to do. And that includes facing the camera, sitting still and taking directions. #overrated.

I won't call this photoshoot a failure because ANYTIME we all spend together is a success, but even though we didn't get that ONE perfect holiday shot, we are left with this sequence. This sequence of chaos and confusion that so perfectly conveys our family dynamic.

-James, being calm and collected.
-Me, being annoying, per usual.
-And Winston, being really, really Winston. #blesss

Sir Winston, 

We might have seriously confused/scared the shit out of you while trying to capture your beautiful face on camera, but regardless, you are my Angel Boy, and you never cease to keep us laughing! I love you, you big lug!

Love, 
your birth mother

*BIG thanks to my sister, Leah for snapping a few of my boys, and LOTS more photos of Sir Winston and USA Holiday 2015 2014 to come!
