My client turned friend, Meagan, never ceases to amaze with her creative visions. After over 2 years and photographing her family 9 times (if I count correctly?), she always has something a little different for me. And whatever she has in mind for her babies’ sessions is always beautiful. Bab-IES **plural** because she’s about to pop any day with a second baby girl, Reece’s little sister. Yay! This particular session, Reece’s 6 month session, about a year a half ago, was one of the most prop-laden sessions we’ve attempted, and it was also one of the more challenging sessions I’ve had with any baby. I think we got just about every emotion out of Reece during the hour we were together. We ended up abandoning our plans and letting Reece eat and power nap, right there in the middle of the park, probably for a good 20-30 minutes while the sun kept setting, because she had needs and they needed to be met. When she woke up, she was a new baby and we were able to crank out the whole session in half the time. Moving double-time, it all worked out in the end. Babies are always the boss during sessions. It’s something I embrace about baby and child photography. They keep you guessing and make you adjust. And I love solving them and all their little puzzles. This evening has a fond place in my memories. We did what we had to do, and we made it work. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, Meagan and I make a good team. And babies are just darn cute.
Can’t wait to meet baby #2 and do it all over again. Love you guys!
xoxo
