The {I} Family | Family Portraits | West Branch, IA

We love family portraits with the {I} family! It’s been amazing capturing their growing family through the years, not to mention their amazing destination wedding in Jamaica four years ago. This year, Laura decided to shake up the routine juuust a bit with a…colorful surprise for Scott and the kids. Keep scrolling to see all the highlights!

We met at Laura’s friend’s home, out in the country with lots of trees, open space and a rope swing!

The CUTEST. We joked with Laura and Scott about the all white coordinated outfits instead of the usual mix of patterns and colors. Little did Scott know, there was an ulterior motive behind the white ensembles…

Before and after of Laura pulling out her squirt gun filled with water paint. We love the instant giggles!

Laura had this impeccably planned out…she had a stash of filled squirt guns ready so everyone could get in on the fun.

Those paint-splattered faces and dresses! So adorable!

Let’s just take a moment to acknowledge how BIG Miss Silia is! It was only two years ago that we were documenting her arrival into the world.

We got a very wide range of expressions out of theses little ladies.

Benson wasn’t too interested the squirt gun fight…but he sure was enjoying himself exploring the yard!

Apparently that water paint should wash right out in the laundry. However, we love the blue, purple and red paint splatters so much that we don’t think it would be the worst thing if it didn’t rinse out!
