the hassler family

The one and only Hassler fam is BACK! So many giggles, so much brother-induced ridiculousness, so many tolerant and knowing looks from Chris, and a standout October evening. This was fall photo perfection.

Sam, there’s just no way you were once the tiny, wide-eyed baby in a bear-eared fleece suit I got to photograph in 2011. Except, you are. You’re every bit as curious, intense and loved now as you were then.

These boys crack their mom up. This expression on Zeljka’s face is there nearly all the time, in response to something funny the boys did. She adores them so fully, and I love it.

Hey, Eli! This guy is on a mission to explore and unleash creative energy as much as possible each day. He’s unbelievably funny and witty, has the best goofy faces, and really loves his mom. I like him a lot. 🙂

Dancin’.

When Sam is passionate about something, if you give him a moment of your time, you’ll get to learn things you’ve never thought about before from a true expert. He’s a gold mine of information. This time I got to hear about the strategy and technical form behind the three point stance of the offensive line. A few years ago, it was taekwondo moves.

Every time with you is more fun than the last, Hasslers. You’re the best!
