Ohio for our family reunion.\u00a0 We did this session in the morning right before we left to drive home.\u00a0 We found this great spot behind a school just down the road from their house.\u00a0 The town they live in is basically one road long, surrounded by farmland.\u00a0 I did some driving around the last time I was there and found some fun new spots for photo sessions, so I&#8217;m looking forward to future years of photographing the family.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-275\" title=\"img_0163_family1\"

chair being used in these images.\u00a0 We borrowed the chair from Mark&#8217;s parent&#8217;s house.\u00a0 It turns out that the chair belonged to our grandparents.\u00a0 It was one of the green kitchen chairs that grandpa and grandma used all the years that I was growing up.\u00a0 In fact, they probably owned that table and set of chairs for their entire married life.\u00a0 I would never have recognized it since my aunt had it refinished.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-277\" title=\"img_0222_amos21\"
