It's a great time for a session, cool (but not cold!) temperatures, gorgeous color and I have recently found several *fantastic* new locations to shoot at.
On Sunday, I decided to do an impromptu session with my own two boys...at my new favorite location. Examples from this session are a good indicator of how you really just have to step back and let your kids just "be". I would probably be mortified if my boys acted like this in public, but honestly, this is how they are at home. You know - silly, funny, very loud, slightly obnoxious little boys :) And this is precisely how I want to remember them.
I've said it before, there is certainly a time and place for "soldier" photos. <aside> Soldier photos are what I call the kind of image where they have to stand really straight and turn their head to the left (or right), angle their shoulder and stand perfectly still in their button up shirt, jacket and little striped tie, strategically posed in front of azaleas or leaning against a tree. Then, they are asked to say, "cheeeeese"!
But, that's not what I'm looking to capture. And if you aren't either, then I'm the girl for you.
Until next time,
Tammy
Those two just crack me up!!! They are such hams!!! Always full of smiles and giggles!
