Our Family Christmas Session - Historic Cobblestone District in Downtown Buffalo, NY - Photographed by Ariel Hawkins Photography & Friends
Well, what can I say… I’m probably the biggest slacker you have every met when it comes to family photos. Not of my family. Just of me. Truth is, I gained some weight and I didn’t want to be in photos. I thought, I’ll just photograph my guys and that will be the best thing and all I need. The REAL truth is, I miss being in photos with my guys. I miss being able to be the CLIENT, and experience what it’s like to be on the other side of the lens. So after a literally five year long hiatus.. I’m back and better than ever!
Please enjoy these really fun photos we took downtown at one of my favorite places, Cobblestone District. Downtown Buffalo has really made a resurgence and there are a lot of really cool family friendly things to do. Including a brand new children’s museum which is a ton of fun and lots of things for the kiddos to do any time of the year as well as fun things for the adults to do as well.
It’s super fun this year as we have my little niece Kayliana who is joining our family photos! She’s just the cutest, sweetest little thing and I love her to pieces! I don’t think anyone will mess with her with all these boys to protect her! And of course we had to get some goofy photos of not only the cousins, but also me and my sister! Tons of fun to head out and do this. I SWEAR, I will not go 5 years without photos ever again! I will be in photos for my child and I will enjoy every sweet moment of it! Thanks for reading along friends! Merry Christmas from our family to yours & a Happy New Year! LIVE.LAUGH.PHOTO. Love, Ariel
