My New Norwegian Friends

The same day I did Svein and Heather's session, I photographed his cousin, Grete and her family. Svein is from Norway and his parents, cousin and her family are all in town visiting. Grete hadn't had her children's photographs taken since they were 6 months old, so she was very excited to join us in Tioga for a little shoot of their own! We didn't let language get in the way at all. Before the session I wasn't sure how it would play out--me not knowing any Norwegian word but "farmor" (if that's even spelled correctly). But it was great! They were fabulous and let their personalities shine. My favorite shots were the ones of the kids because they had such unique style and characteristics--Benedicte's streaked hair and her skirt. I probably told her how much I loved that skirt like 20 times! In addition to having a lot of fun, they are just so sweet. I hope they'll come back to visit just so we can hang out again. :)



Grete, Olav, Preben and Benedicte
