Gavin and Christopher arrived at the studio in a HumV version of a double wide stroller. Sleepy from the ride over, they took a few minutes to wake up while munching on some Cheetos. It’s always good to let little ones get use to the new faces and surroundings. A little shy at first when mom zipped them into their Halloween Bee costumes, but they soon rallied. Just as you would expect, the 9 month old boys quickly took attention to the lights, reflectors and props. Not walking wasn’t a problem for these two. They could army crawl faster than mom and I could react. Kids are so much fun photograph, you never know what will happen. And, you can’t rush things. Patience, persistence and a good attitude are a must when working with children.

The boys really did a good job for their first time. The only real challenge was getting this shot their mother wanted. They were quick, and without toys in hand, they improvised with what was available. The weekend is their one year birthday – hope to see them soon for another session. Happy Birthday boys!
