I recently had the awesome opportunity to spend some time with the Heldt family, one of the most amazing families I’ve ever met. Brianna and Kevin were married in 2002, and in the last ten years have brought seven children into their home. Kaitlyn, Biniam, Anna, Mekdes, Mary, Yosef, and Tigist (in order of photos below). Biniam and Yosef were adopted from Ethiopia several years ago, and Mekdes and Tigist were just brought home from Ethiopia about three weeks ago! Theirs is a family so full of love, faith, and joy – it was truly an honor to spend just a couple of hours with them. Here are some photos of their sweet children.

These are amazing. Of course, it helps to have an amazing family to photograph, too. These are beautiful and I love how it captures the love they have for each other. Thanks for sharing.
