Being a photographer, I see all kinds of kids. I like them all. But some of them don’t seem to like me so much. Or, at least they don’t love that big black, boxy thing I hold up in front of my face every time I tell them to “Smile, pumpkin!” Sometimes I get kids who practically shoot darts out of their eyes, others look skeptical–giving me a “stranger danger vibe.” Like, why is this stranger so insistent that I smile? She hasn’t earned my smiles. She’s not even funny.
Then there are other kids. Like Kaylin. They politely smile at my jokes, and giggle giddily at their parents tickling. When the black, boxy thing comes up–the smile goes on. Like I said, I like all kids–but kids like Kaylin make my job easy. {Just look at that precious face!} Photographing her family last week was a pure joy. They are simply a stunning clan. Tonight I’m showing off a few of my favorites from our day in the park together.
One of my favorite things about our session was that Jay had a specific shot in his mind. “The Shoe Shot.” I didn’t really understand what he was talking about until the very end when the whole family changed shoes…into matching Jordans. Seriously. How cool is that?!!
{Doesn’t this make you want a pair?!}
Thanks for choosing me to capture these precious family moments. According to the post office, your flash drive should arrive this weekend!
