'Scuse Me While I Get This Text.

I love coming up with fun ideas for sessions. These three kids were great! (I say kids trepidatiously - young adults is more like it). But we had fun and they were willing to go along with some creative ideas. In fact, K., the little sister, was instrumental in helping to pull together the style and concept of our session. She has quite the flair and energy. I totally loved her.

During our session, I asked them to all pull out their phones and pretend to text (because that's all teenagers want to do all the time anyway (lol!)) - but I think they really were texting their friends (one even texted him mom who was sitting in the room with us!) Later I had the boys doing the overprotective big brother thing. Those were so cute and fun, I was laughing the whole time I was editing. It really works out great when both I and my clients come to a session willing to get creative and playful and go with it for just the moment.

Enjoy the portraits we created together and Peace Out!

More Look Ma...No Teeth!

I've said it before and I'll say it again.....I love the "Look Ma....No Teeth" sessions. I love them because the kids are so proud of themselves - they finally feel like they've reached the big time being a big kid now. I love them because they are never shy about showing off their big toothless grins. And I love them because this is such a short window of time in their lives.

I have been watching this little boy grow up over the last few years. I think he is totally adorable, funny and gorgeous. And I think he may be even cuter with no teeth!
