Love, love, love photographing families. Especially happy ones. Especially ones with little boys who talk about going fishing, and when you ask what their favorite fish to catch is, they say “preach” (instead of perch!) Love him to pieces! I hope your nets are always filled with more “preach” than you can handle, little man! Thanks for choosing Calotype, Gruver family.
Photographed at the beautiful Village on the Creeks in Rogers. no comments … and Mommy takes her camera, of course. First stop: the barn! Animals! Yay! Every toddler should be delighted!
But when Jack first saw this:
This was the reaction:
There was a sense of mutual interest and subtle aversion, the latter mostly on Jack’s part. The goat was pretty much down for whatever.
After his first trip to Barnyard Life, we rewarded Jack with ice cream. (And thank you, Sugar Creek Gobblers, for providing the ice cream!) Quick! Listen! Amateur photographers, here’s a great tutorial in a three-part series of photos: Getting Great Smiles from Toddlers. 1. 2. 3. See how easy that went down? This technique works for many adults, too. And some pets. Jack’s fair experience definitely ended on a happy note! Wait, don’t go! One more picture! Unusual light from the fading thunderstorm that just had to be photographed. With my favorite two faces, of course. What’s light unless it illuminates something precious?
Have a great week! 1 comment

I don’t like goats so my expression may just be something similar to Jack’s! Jon and Julie you have a cute little one! He is the best model! This sweet little man went from this….
…to this, in just six months. We’ve heard that can happen if you’re not careful.
Here’s a few with big sis Bella… no comments Meet Shailyn, only six days old. (I love to photograph tiny, new babies. I believe they are so fresh from the Presence of God you can still feel it hovering around them!)
