Adventures with {T}

I absolutely love being a portrait photographer. I get a crazy kind of giddy when I get the chance to capture connections 
between people and even more when I succeed in telling a story of someones pure essence in only a small series of photographs. I believe I accomplished that with this shoot.

As parents we snap photos of our kids constantly!
(Oh wait, is that just me?)
And why do we do it? Because each of us believes that we have the cutest, smartest, most unique kiddos in the world. And we all do. They are them, simple as that. Each of them unique and lucky us, we get to know them! Photographs help document stages in our lives so that later on we can look back with fondness and share it with others

When this little guys mom contacted me she said my favorite words, "I'm open to any ideas you have." As we talked more I learned that he loved wearing costumes. From this point ideas were flooding my head. My own daughter has spent most of her life so far in costumes. She LOVES to dress up and lives in the wonderful land of {awe's} that is her imagination/dreamland. Though the busy mom in me tries too much to push her along to match the pace of the outside world, I truly love her imagination. I think it's absolutely beautiful and try hard to take more time to experience the wonder with her.  I hadn't met many boys, who upon meeting them  took you by the arm and held on tight as they shared their adventure with you. Needless to say, I was SO excited to meet this kid!

Now, let me show you some photos! Enjoy!

With every costume change he became a different character. He told me of the Knight cutting through thorns to save the Princess from the Dragon. We decided to have fun with it and act out the battle.

I asked him who wins and I believe I remember him saying the dragon. 
Either way, little Tristan was victorious.

The morning of this shoot I got to our location early and found that there was the remains of burnt car right across the street. I LOVED the idea of using it for this next outfit. I would have loved to put him up on top of the car, but instead we kept a safe distance. :)

I got the chance to spend a little time and see why HIS mom thinks HE'S the cutest thing ever. I must say, I agree! Until the next adorable thing my own kids do, of course! hehe

I loved my experience with her!! She made it so comfortable and fun! I loved that she brought ideas to the table but we were also aloud to share our ideas and wants!!! Can't wait to do another session with her.

A phenomenal photographer in every sense! She's patient, creative, and has a great eye for detail. Always willing to get in there and do what needs to be done to get that perfect shot, including chasing your little one around when they don't want to sit still!
