Shanley called me a few weeks ago asking about family portraits. As I always do, I invited her in for a consult to find out exactly what she had in mind with this session. She asked if she could bring 3 year old Mikayla along as well because Mikayla is very shy and it might be nice to meet me before the session. The family of 4 came in for this consult and I watched her cling to her daddy. After a wonderful conversation about what they wanted with this session, the date was booked.
The day of the session arrived, and little Mikayla was just as shy as ever! So I decided to try some relaxing poses and this was everyone’s all time favorite!
A few images of Mikayla and Daddy…
and – success – we got a smile from her! and look at that gorgeous dimple!
The reason for the session was to photograph little Aiden – and he was a very precious, cooperative little boy!
And this one just makes me melt – I love the tenderness on mommy’s face and the hand cradling little Aiden’s head…
We got a few images of both children – here Mikayla is trying to get Aiden to smell the flowers!
But one of my all-time favorite images is this one. I was photographing little Aiden in this basket and Mikayla kept walking into the image – I love the way Aiden’s eyes followed Mikayla – this is just priceless!
Thank you Paul and Shanley, Mikayla and Aiden!
