My Aunt Denise & Uncle Stan are celebrating their 40th wedding anniversary. As a gift their daughters booked me for a family shoot. The pressure was on to get this large group organized into a family photo. I think it came together perfectly, and I couldn’t have spent my Sunday in a better way.
Here’s the whole Drodt family:
Yep that’s 16 faces all looking at the camera, 6 of those faces are little ones. LOVE IT!
Beautiful family.

I just love this:
Taylor does such an awesome job with her younger counterparts. She just smiles,while I snap a gazillion pictures trying to get the little ones attention![]()
The Drodt daughters. Gorgeous girls ♥
This is a favorite of mine:
The Hemmele clan:
The Green’s:
The Opfermann’s:
And the youngest sister, Jenna Sue. Jenna is returning to Rochester Institute to continue her collegiate career. Good luck Jenna! Keep working hard![]()
Something about this picture is just perfect to me. Gorgeous Jenna!
The happy couple: 40 years, and look at the family they’ve made! Awesome ♥
The happiness says it all![]()
The youngest cowboy in the group, Mikey:
This is hands down one of my most favorite pictures of all time! I just love the perspective.
Cowboy + cowgirl faces ♥
Best funny faces![]()
Oh just checking in on their cattle![]()
Love these wheel shots!
Leeland, is a true naturalist.
Papa with his cowboys:
Nana with her cowgirls:
One last family shot to make it all worth it. Even Buffy, the family dog, was looking for this one. See it can happen!
So I was going to use a fun song for the slideshow, like going out with my boots on like Jenna suggested, but I was editing and this song, “Love like Crazy” came on and I thought it was so fitting for Uncle Stan & Aunt Denise’s anniversary. Love ya!
