I had mentioned a couple of days ago that I was going to get to take pictures of a cute, little baby boy for Easter. I may have not gone into the detail of it, but there you have it! What a fun adventure this was. To start off, I was nervous about being late so I went and found the place and decided to go shopping at a neat store around the corner to kill time. I timed my official arrival just right. Not to early and not late. It makes me nervous to think of myself as being late to anything. I should have taken into consideration that I was dealing with new parents who WERE going to be late. I think that is a given in the scheme of things. We were also doing the shoot at Mama's parent's house, and lo and behold, they weren't there, yet. They had gotten trapped in the mess of construction traffic that runs right in front of my apartment. The very same traffic that I left early, in order to account for, because I knew it was there, unlike the grandparents of the baby.
We all finally made it. And then the real adventure began. I had the request of taking naked baby pictures, in which the baby would be posed on white sheets. I loved the idea and jumped at the chance. We found the negative aspect of this when natural baby, body functions took place on said white sheet. Luckily, we were at a point where we could mark that pose done when the event occurred.
Half the group had other engagements, so it came down to me, Mom, Dad and baby. We decided to go take pictures on the golf course where Grandma and Grandpa live and are members. Apparently, the ground's keeper did not agree with us that this was a good idea and kicked us off the course.
Then, we went back to the house. There was an awesome distressed cinder block wall in the backyard. It just screamed for pictures that could be turned into black and whites. Little did we realize, the back door locks behind you when you step outside. Dad had to jump the 10 foot cinder block wall. Walked down the highway to the entrance road and come back in the front door to let us in.
I think we exhausted baby boy and it was time to call it a day, but I was really happy with the end results!
