The Tayles Family {The Waikaia Valley}

When Rachel contacted me about photos I was so excited. 
I've known the Tayles family since my childhood & I knew they would be so much fun to photograph.
And they didn't disappoint. What a photogenic family!
Between Lucy's ideas, Rachel's gorgeous 'laughing pose' and Matthew's 'pretend' reluctance for these photos (he secretly loved it!) we had a fabulous Waitangi Day evening up the Waikaia valley taking family portraits.

That wee poser in the front is Polly, Lucy's golden retriever, who loved being a part of the photos.

I was absolutely spoilt for locations for these photos! We used the family farm, down by the river, 
even their Mum's pub! 

We even had Nana jump in for some photos - what a beautiful family!!!

Thank you guys for letting me take these images for you!
I'm so pleased with how they turned out & I hope you enjoy them as much as I enjoyed creating them.
