Oliver is 9 months old! I know parents say it’s hard to believe how fast time flies, but even I’m saying that about this one. Oliver’s been to see me every three months since birth, and I’ve been photographing his family since I started my business three years ago. I consider them friends just as much as I consider them clients, and I’ve mentioned a time or two how much I also adore their older daughter Ella. Oliver takes after his sister in so many ways but more than anything they share the same energy and spunk. He’s plopped down in my studio and the smiles immediately erupt. He smiles and giggles and coos and leaves me to sit back and capture the joy. I don’t mind that one bit.
My guess is that both Oliver and Ella both have their cranky days, all kids do, but for all the times I’ve worked with them I’ve yet to see even an ounce of that come through. They are a delight and I hope that I will get to have the honor of continuing to capture their smiles throughout the years. I won’t mind that one bit, either.
