Photo Shoot Share: Lil’ C


I admit, one of my dream jobs would be to own a small business as a photographer.  Because I don’t really have a degree or anything, I just shoot for family and friends and referrals beyond that.  When my best friend since I was 12 (Ms. Squiggles) asked me to take her son’s 3 year photos, I was really excited.  I took this little guy’s (Lil’ C) photos for his first Christmas back in 2009.  I was honored to be asked to do them again.  The 100% truth is, that the kiddo’s birthday is in August (like mine) and August around here is unpredictable and usually still very hot.  There were lots of evenings in August that the temp was still high 80’s or more at around 8pm!  So we waited it out and last Friday was amazing—couldn’t have asked for a better day for photos!  And Lil’ C is one of the best subjects I’ve had.  He’s very expressive, funny, and eager to please.  He was a joy to work with!  I’ve edited about  3/4 of them, still have some more to go.  But I couldn’t resist sharing some of my favorites!!
