MY SISTER AND HER GIRLS!! || OH, THE OUTTAKES!

I don’t know if it’s because she’s my sister, and because I know her and the girls so well, but man they were all SO SILLY during their photo session. I could barely get them set up and get one good shot when they were laughing and giggling and being so silly….so we got lost […]
