You make me happy, when skies are grey.
You'll never know dears, how much I love you.
Please don't take my sunshine away!
Summer is all about bright, bold, happy, fun, and this family definitely brought sunshine to my day. I met Trudi, Ricky, Belle, Jacob, and Audrey at a fun little site for a few posed pictures to start us out. I quickly learned that this family needed some action to really bring them to life. Nothing a little bubbles, silly string, and a new relaxed location can't fix. The family instantly came to life and created some of my most memorable moments on a session.
Ricky is at the age where he thinks he is too cool to be having fun, perfect victim for my constant harassment. Ricky was very quiet during the entire session, but his constant ring of text messaging definitely lead me to believe differently about him. I think he might text even more than I do, and that is a lot! I really enjoyed giving him a hard time trying to loosen him up.
Belle also came off a little more on the reserved side, but I would say she has a competitive heart. When I came up with the idea for a little challenge on who could give me there best poses, I definitely would have to say Belle brought out her "A" game. When it came to her turn she had her plan of attack already in motion. She takes the most beautiful candid shots.
And then there is Jacob, ohh little Jacob. I have so much to say about him! From the moment he stepped out of the car I knew he was the personality of the family. I love when I get kids as full of life as he is. They are always a blast because they keep me on my toes laughing the entire time. He definitely is the goofball of the group and keeps the entire family's life very interesting I am sure.
Last, but certainly not least, is America's Next Top Model Winner Audrey. She may only be four years old, but this little girl knows how to work the camera. I swear I just had to point the camera in her direction and she would start her posing debut off full force. She was absolutely adorable. I wish I had room to post every pose she gave me because she was so stinking cute.
I usually am teary eyed my entire shoot from my allergies when I am shooting in a field, but this session I cried the whole time because the family was hysterical. Any chance they got to play a joke on each other they took. I feel so fortunate to have such fun people come to me to capture their moments. I don't even feel like I am working, it is an immeasurable sensation for me. I definitely walked away from our appointment knowing that these four kids are Trudi's preeminent sunshine!
