Whenever I'm in the shower and she comes in, she says, "Draw a heart for me, Mommy." And so I do. I don't ever want to forget moments like this.
Things you should know about this session:
1. LOVED working in this part of town. It is so rich with color and culture! So happy mom took me up on this idea!
2. We walked. A lot. A whole lot. I'm not good with directions ;-).
3. This little man has got to be the happiest kid on earth! I smiled the whole time while editing his session.

I hope I'm not telling on myself, but truly, this was one of the easiest sessions I've ever had (I guess I've paid my dues in the past). These boys were amazing and their parents were so relaxed and down-to-earth. Driving up to their home, I was getting *really* nervous because the skies were getting dark and there were rumors of bad storms (I guess that tells you how long ago this session was ;-). So when I got there, I told the boys that we were going to have to make it quick. They were absolute ANGELS! Not gonna lie...when I got a little giddy that their grandparents showed up for a few shots (celebrating a BIG anniversary this year). And I'm also not gonna lie about how mom's eyes mesmerized me.
We did a quick little mini session to mark his 1/2 year birthday. He wasn't too thrilled with the grass, but his big sis found LOTS of things to spark her curiosity. The wind was CRAZY that day, but I loved what it did to add to the mood of the images.
I don't mean this to sound shallow in any way whatsoever, but throughout my (relatively short in the grand scheme of things) career (that word just sounds weird) as a photographer, I've met some beautiful children, but I gotta tell you that when I was greeted by these three handsome boys, I believe I gasped. Maybe it was their perfect skin or maybe it was those crystal, honey eyes, or maybe those incredible lashes, but my word, how does one family get to be so lucky in the looks department?
I loved the personality of this session, too. It was fast-paced and spunky (much like the older brothers) and sprinkled with lots of love (I couldn't get over how connected the eldest was to his littlest bro). I remember it was insanely windy that day and we almost weren't able to go outside. Not sure how little man put up with all of our antics that morning, but he was just as cute as he could be and I don't even recall any tears (from him ;-).
