That’s right, ten children: Clint, Calista, Damien, Theron, Adrian, Quentin, Camille, Octavia, Elliott, and Gabriel. Each of them endearingly adorable, dazzling, and photogenic in their own way. Their mother, Lisa Holloway, is a professional photographer in the Las Vegas area. She lives, however, in a rural part of northern Arizona–the perfect place to photograph her charming family. The dreamy earth tones and gorgeous natural light she finds there seems to lend themselves perfectly to the photographer’s style, all the while complementing the natural beauty of her children.

“I want to be able to look into the eyes of my children and see their souls. I think this is why I tend to gravitate more toward quiet, thoughtful expressions than huge smiles in my portraits,” Holloway told MyModernMet.

Holloway makes it look easy, a skill she attributes to patience (and a lot of it). She also notes that not being afraid to go off script and approaching each session with an open mind and positive attitude is one of the secret ingredients in her portrait recipe.

To see more of her work, you can check out her website or her Facebook page.
