You might not ever know by looking at most of these photos that William does not like having his picture taken. However, when I show you this first photo, know that this is the way he felt throughout most of our session. His sister is a total ham, but for some reason this little guy missed that trait. We always get about 5 good minutes & then that’s it. He is so stinkin’ loveable and squishy, and generally a happy baby! However, when his momma is in reach, but not holding him, it’s another story all together!! We were persistent with him, and somewhere in all of his misery, he found a smile here & there to give. Thankfully, my trigger finger was working that day, and I was able to catch some of them! SO, even though William doesn’t love me and my camera, I still love him :)! It just doesn’t seem right that he’s already a year old! He’s not walking yet, so in my book, that means there’s still some baby left!
In his momma’s arms, I didn’t even have to work for smiles :)!
Do you not want to just stay out in this yard all day?!! This, again, is my friend Jen’s yard, and it is amazing! I took a few shots of the trees that are so colorful right now. It’s equally gorgeous in the fall, and I’m so thankful she allows me to use it on occasion!!
Happy Birthday sweet boy! I’m so thankful to be a small part of your little life! Love you!
Love ’em, Chesley! Thanks for being so patient with him….he was a stinker for sure. Had I known I was going to be in a lot of these shots by necessity, I’d have spruced up a bit more. 🙂 As always, I knew you’d work your magic despite your unwilling little subject!
