They gathered in Vancouver, from various corners of North America, to celebrate the US Thanksgiving holiday as an extended family – a tradition that happens on a yearly basis. Cousins, aunts, uncles and grandparents – everyone joined in for Kelley’s extended family’s group photo this year, on a very chilly morning at Queen Elizabeth Park in Vancouver.

But even though there was still some frost on the ground and you could see your breath in the air, there was a cozy warmth to this session. Inside jokes and jabs, laughter and snuggles were extended left, right and centre throughout the entire group, and it was obvious that everyone loved being in each other’s company, despite the cold.

Thank you to Kelley and her extended family for inviting me to document this lovely and loving family gathering!
