I first met Nikki back in 2001 when I worked at a movie theater with her. We had lots of fun, such as; rolling office chairs down the hallway and other fun “mature” things 🙂 I then worked with her again in 2005 at Lowe’s and also met her fiance Dan who worked there. Nikki and Dan invited me to come photograph some candid moments at their wedding that November, which was a lot of fun and my first experience photographing a wedding. Well now the Snyder family has three with the addition of Tristan a couple years ago and will be four strong soon enough! I went over to their home a couple weeks ago to grab some shots of the family as well as a few of Nikki and her belly. I ended up shooting a lot of Tristan, but there’s no surprise there, as he is a cutie and of course full of energy. All in all it was a great day and I was happy to be able to see the growth of the Snyder family and am anxious to meet the newest addition soon!
We started outside to get a few of the three of them…here’s Tristan
And the boys…
Love the hat!
Weeee!
Looks like a happy family to me 🙂
Their yard is so big, Tristan can run A LOT!
I’m diggin’ this one…
I wanted to try and get a few of moody one’s with Nikki…
Tristan was definitely jumping on the bed…
I wonder what this is for?
Some fun belly painting with finger paint….NICE!
It was funny, the first couple times Tristan put his finger in the paint and painted on Nikki’s belly, he wanted to wipe off his finger….very cute…
This one reminds me a little bit of ET…
I LOVE this moment…so genuine and I love the emotion you can see in Nikki.
Why would you not want to put it on your nose?
You gotta mix it up to make the famous BROWN!
A little belly and baby love…
“And I’m spent.”
I think this is referred to as a “Hot Mamma.”
Yes, they’re really that blue.
Love it!
Mamma + Daddy
A final one of Tristan running around before I left…
Thank you Nikki and Dan for letting me come do this and I look forward to meeting your new little one soon!
