Big Brother Bow...

Meet Bow... a very happy 2-year-old with the sweetest smile, who was very excited to show me where his baby brother is currently living...in his Mommy's tummy, of course. This adorable family is happily awaiting the arrival of Baby#2 in late January, and wanted to capture this special time in their family story. They were an easy going bunch with a beautiful home - filled with lots of windows, natural light, plain walls (perfect for portraits), and of course...LOVE. And you all know how I feel about love! I knew immediately that Bow is going to be a wonderful big brother.

Mom and Dad were dream clients, really. Those of you who have (or have ever had) 2-year-olds know that catching them at a good time is key. Mom and Dad had Bow well rested and fed upon my arrival. They let me play with him a bit until he warmed up, and were happy to let him take breaks in between. Go with the flow. We discussed shots that they were interested in, but when Bow seemed like he was done before we got absolutely everything, Mom and Dad decided what we had was definitely good enough. This allowed Bow to end his family maternity session with a smile on his face - a good experience - rather than push him over his limits. Thanks Mom & Dad!
