I love everything about this family. From their Italian roots, their big family get togethers and their love for the Cubs, they welcomed me in years ago after I had met Mel at college.  Mel wanted some family pictures since it had been years since they had any taken, and they especially needed an updated one with new members – 2 husbands and 2 kids – so we were able to find a date and set it up.  I had about 20 minutes for the family – it was HOT and sticky and really buggie — gotta love the Texas humidity, but before Jeff (Papa Ferro) split I was able to get some family ones all together!  Fortunately, it won’t be too long until I get them all in front of the camera again since Nick is getting married! Get ready for lots more pics guys – you especially Nick!

The Whole Clan

The original Clan – The Ferros

Anthony, Kathleen, Jeff, Melissa, Nick, Andrea

The two who started it all

Andrea and Allan’s adorable boys, Aidan and Maddox

a mom and her girls.

i love the bond grandparents have with their grandbabies

and of course – Chase and Mel.  All the others jetted off because it was seriously hot – like sitting in a sauna – like sticking your head down a steam pipe.  HOT!

But not for Mel and Chase -the picture taking King and Queen!!

i love this one.

Mel’s newest Tattoo. She’s had it awhile but I hadn’t taken any pictures of it yet. It’s beautiful and showcases so much of what Mel believes.

love.

Thank you all for enduring the heat and letting me capture y’alls beautiful family.
