Little Miss A was so reserved at the beginning of her shoot. Smiles would have cost me more than the price of all the toys in a toy store. But as I explained to her mom, the difference between a custom photographer and your big box photography stores is that I will take the time to work with each child. I will take the time to make the experience a great one. An experience where a child will not think they are at a photo session but at a fun, play session.

It wasn’t too long into the photo session that I had little Miss A singing, laughing, running and taking giving me tons of smiles!!! Here are some pictures from her session to prove it!!

I love it when Melvin and I are going somewhere and he takes his place in the driver’s seat and I take mine on the passenger side. I’m usually engaged in either talking on the phone, looking through a magazine, finishing the last pages of a good book I am reading, or on my iPad so I can’t drive! Everything usually goes smoothly until I look up and see the brake lights from the vehicle in front of us and we are still doing 70 mph and I yell SSTOOOOPP, SSLOOOOOW DOWN and pushing the brakes on the passenger’s side! What- your car doesn’t have brakes on the passenger side?!

The other day we took NIcholas out to play on the BIG hill and of course I took my camera! I had a plan to let him play and I would slow down and capture the emotion of him being a little boy playing! I placed him where I knew the lighting was good and just watched him play. He found two rocks and started playing with them. Turning them into rockets and missiles and weapons! I started shooting and captured some cute pictures but not the moment I was anticipating. Then I reminded myself that my goal was to slow down and WAIT for the moment to happen! The minute I did this, I saw this moment….

I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS PICTURE!

It never fails! Regardless of if I am at a nursery school graduation or a college graduation, the minute I hear that song I get teary-eyed! Just thinking about it makes me want to cry! I told this to Laura at her cap and gown session. Now she is probably thinking…that cry baby!!! I can’t help it!

Here are a few pictures of Laura in her cap and gown! Doesn’t she look all scholarly (is that a word…is it spelled right) Anyway, congrats again Laura and I wish you much success at Western Kentucky next school year!
