Sometimes my plans go awry…and it’s great!

My plan was to have this sweet little 6 month old sit in the chair in her nursery.  She can sit really well with support, and while I got some good images of her sitting that way, she eventually started to list as all new sitters do.  Her Mom looked at me, and said, “it’s all right if she’s leaning on the arm rest…I have an image like that of her big sister.”

I wasn’t too sure of the idea, but I went with it…and then I noticed…oh wow…it WORKED!

Those big eyes, that sweet curl on top of her head…I can totally see her as an angel here.  A sweet little cherub.

Love this face!

Sometimes during a baby session that baby gets a little bit irritated at being photographed and needs a break.  I am always happy to follow the baby’s lead, but I’m even happier when I’m able to “play” with the older siblings because sometimes I get some pretty fun images (and sometimes I fall in love with one).  This one, as it happens, is probably my favorite from the session.

I love this little girl!  I really really do.

 

Peek-a-Boo

Okay, I knew I’d have a great time with this Senior when I saw he carried a bottle of Dr. Pepper with him to the session.  Ah yes, a kindred soul.  The only problem?  By the end of the session when I had a great idea for a photo?  that Dr. Pepper was gone.  ::sad::

But that’s okay, because during the session I found out he loves something that I’ve had on my list of “if I ever get the chance to photograph this” list.  So, I think we’re just going to have to meet up again.

This session made me realize I need to do both a studio and an outdoor session with each of the Seniors.  Perhaps that will be a new offering next year.  :)

Mr. Adorable

Meet Mr. Adorable.  Seriously, can a baby get any cuter?!  I don’t think so.  He didn’t even complain about doing tummy time on the hardwood floor!  Which, honestly, made my love for him go up even more.

But he LOVES football….and Daddy.  His favorite thing though is being with Daddy while watching a football game.  :)  Or maybe being with Daddy outside after Alabama wins a game.  ;)  That’s pretty fun too.
