While back in Texas, I had the honor of photographing one of my very best friends and her family! They are a bit of an urban family, so we thought the rustic charm down on South Congress would a great choice for their session. It was very different from other photo sessions that they’ve done in more “park” like settings. Their little man was the perfect age to switch it up a bit, so taking a handful of photos in several different spots worked out great for his spunky attention span. ;-P I’ve taken photos many times for them in the past, and it makes me extremely happy that I have such great friends that truly value my passion AND support my career. That’s such a huge blessing!! Not only do I get to capture beautiful moments for them, I simultaneously get to MAKE fun memories with them also! And I just happen to know a few things about getting their handsome little one to grin. He had been practicing his smile for a couple days, and I’m going to say that he certainly got it down!
Because my schedule was much more limited than normal then, I didn’t really have a chance to ‘scout’ out a solid location prior to meeting them. I take great pride in the fact that my clients are so trusting and spontaneous when it comes to choosing their session locations. Factoring in cool spots that photograph well, and are unique to my clients, is a big part of a session’s success in my eyes. I prefer to have that mapped out in my head, as well as a back up location, justttt in case something goes awry. I would like to think that everything will always work out perfectly, just in the perfect amount of time, but THIS time… I really wasn’t sure that was the case. I’m not going to lie, I rarely get nervous about a session location working out, and I definitely WAS this time! They may be great friends, but they’re also still paying customers with busy schedules, so this HAD to work out well! Thank goodness >>insert deep breath here<< everything did work out wonderfully, and I am extremely pleased with their cute little urban family photo session. Can you just check out their GQ little man!? So handsome, with SO much personality. I love him so much, I just want to pinch his cheeks…lol. Photographing him as he grows up, is going to be a blast!!
