Playtime..
Bathtime...
My session today had me wondering if I was getting rusty.... I had forgotten how on-the-go 2 year olds were, and how 4 year olds just looove to give their biggest cheesin fake smile. However, I think I was able to dig up some reserve and capture the beauty in these two blonde cuties.
Their mom is a friend of mine, and I've known Emma, the oldest, since she was a little itty bitty babe. She was actually one of my "guinea pigs" when I first started learning about photography... I had (still have) a manual Canon AE-1, and I had gotten ONE great picture from that session. 4 years and much experience later, I'm capturing them again. Carrie, I can't wait for you to see your gallery. You're going to love it. Graci sure made me work, but I promise... you'll be thrilled.
This senior session was awesome... it was an out of town session, and I was a little unfamiliar with the area. We decided on an older part of Downtown Lansing, where we were sure to find some great texture on the buildings, and some awesome architecture. And, boy, did we find! Not only was downtown the perfect spot, but we were done with our session, and on our way out, and we drove by..... a junkyard.... Yes, a junkyard. And all along the fence surrounding it was painted hubcaps. We did a U-turn and hopped out to take advantage of this great spot. The guys working there thought we were crazy. Hey, I'm not going to argue.... but wouldn't you say it was worth it?
Her mama's going to kill me if I keep showing her more pictures!! I picked one last image to proof from this session... isn't that face just absolutely precious?
