HOLIDAY SEASON PART 2 OF 3

KIDS AND CHRISTMAS: Can they be separated?


Right around Christmas time I get a large request for children pictures. Of course they’re used for various reasons, whether it be personal holiday mementos, gifts or even holiday cards. Whatever the case, each parent, each child, each interaction is always genuine. I guess that tends to be the case because most parents are very protective of there children, and having someone come in and attempt to capture something very honest and personal out of there often unpredictable toddler is always a task. Not a bad one at all but a task nonetheless….

Of course I can’t show you all the images but here are a few that make me smile, and hopefully they’ll do the same for you


This young man was very charming...

I can't remember exactly how his mother described him, but she said something to the effect of him being very serious, and he came across that way...

He didn't cry, didn't complain, just sat there for a whiled, which was understandable considering he didn't know who i was or what i was there for, but after a whiled of shooting, his true personality spilled out, and it was a great shoot!!

What the heck am i out here for?!?


Mental note: Should have started with the toy!


Oops!


Baby: So you mean you want me to do this?


I was at my grandmothers house, and this young lady stepped through the door attached to her aunts leg as if she'd never let go....so i went out and setup my equipment, just for the heck of it, the young lady didn't seem as though she planned on having any conversations, or interactions with anyone in the house...but much like the other gentleman above, it took a little easing into, but she warmed up as well, and we had fun!


Lets get this over with please!! :) Never ever ever seen this look in a child!!


Her favorite Christmas present! Can you tell?
