This weekend, I got to photograph some good friends on what was probably the last nice day of fall Bozeman is likely to have. They live caddy-corner behind us and their little guy is exactly 2 weeks older than mine. The boys are pretty good buddies and we love hanging out with Mom and Dad just as much!
A fall photo shoot just isn’t complete without playing in the leaves!
It was very enlightening for me to photograph a 2 1/2 year old that is not related to me. My own son definitely has an extreme case of photographer’s child syndrome–he rarely makes eye contact with the camera and even less frequently gives me a smile. This day, I discovered that some of his camera aversion might just be age-related. I eeked a few smiles out of his buddy, but it didn’t take long for him to grow tired of my camera, too. Luckily, Mom and Dad got him smiling again!
