pop of personality

rascals

i happen to a d o r e photography.

some of my most prized possessions and greatest treasures are photographs of my rascals over the last six years.

i have hundreds & hundreds of them. if not thousands.

from the minute their pink little bodies first entered this world. to their first bite of food. and first steps. and first days of school. to late night snuggles. and impromptu dance parties. and major meltdowns. i try to capture it all. the big. the small. the important. the everyday.

one look at these photos & i am instantly transported back to that moment. i remember the place. the time. the smells. the words. all of it.

a beautiful photograph speaks to the very heart of me.

but what i love most of all. photos that are dripping with personality.

give me a super close up face. with chubby cheeks grinning. and big eyes wondering. and wrinkled up noses. and little bear paw hands making their appearance. those photos. those are what really steal my heart.

when my sweetest friend since preschool, mom of two kiddos, and fantastic photographer, alison, came to me with the idea of doing personality photos of the boys . . . i about squealed.

i immediately said, yes. one thousand times, yes. when are you coming over?!

a matter of days later. after a fifteen minute photo sesh. these gems were delivered to my inbox.

growing my heart by at least three sizes. reminding me of the darling. most precious. seriously silly. abundantly curious. rascally goodness that little boys bring.

i mean. come on. the cutest. right?!

i honestly couldn’t love them any more. so much so, that i fully intent on repeating these mini sessions every few months. it took less than fifteen minutes to capture each boy. quick. easy. and so dang cute. it will be fun to watch their little personalities { and faces} grow over the months and years to come.

alison is local here in saint petersburg. and is just launching her personality portrait series. i highly encourage you to reach out & book with her. promise you will be overjoyed with the images.
