Energy. Ohhh the energy of this little guy! How I wish he could give me just a tiny bit! I can still hear the sound of his little flip flops hitting the pavement as he hopped, skipped and jumped from one place to another during our shoot last week! In fact, he was skipping so much that I asked his mom if he had just learned how! You see, Gentry recently figured it out and has been skipping all over the place ever since! But Tucker? Nope. He is just a little ball of energy who is always on the move!
Tucker ROCKED at our session! He was so good! And he listened so well! And the smiles he would flash? Priceless!!
I love these two! I cropped them opposite because I think they would be so cute hanging one above the other!
As we rounded a corner and this bike rack came into view, I almost let out a little squeal of excitement! What a FUN element to work with! And so boy. Oh so boy.
LOVE LOVE LOVE this black and white one!!
The little guy does have some serious faces too…
And this one just makes me smile for some reason!!
We ventured up onto a hill during our time together too! For anyone interested, I started shooting in “evaluative” metering mode but when Tucker was way too underexposed because of all the backlight, I switched to “spot” metering and had MUCH better results! I love it when I take the time to think things like that through and experiment a little during a session! That one decision made all the difference in that entire series of photos! And it took all of three seconds to do!
I LOVE this light!! For real. One of my personal goals is to get out of the open shade and start shooting in light more often! Now that I see the results first hand, there is no holding me back!!
And a couple with mom! Tucker is going to be a big brother this summer and his mom looks AMAZING. Seriously April, you look great!!
Dad wasn’t actually planning to be in any pictures, but I sort of insisted that he get in on just one!
Thanks Tucker and Co for taking a little bit of time to hang out with me the night before you left! It was so nice to meet you all and I wish you all the best! Good luck this summer with the birth of Baby #2!
