I think these images speak for themselves, but I will go ahead and add in a bit of commentary just for fun! (My friends say that my posts are often too “flowery” and so I am going to attempt to keep it real…).

The story behind the images: It is about 10 minutes into this session (formal family shot thankfully behind us) and I am trying to get the older brother to laugh, so I ask little brother for a some help. He has a genius idea to pick up an old Starbuck’s espresso can that he finds laying in the woods. Mom and dad are off letting me do my thing (love that) and so I am fully responsible! I assume (you know what that means) that little bro will just pretend to drink from the old nasty can, and big brother will laugh at his antics. But NO, he actually tips the can back and spills dirty, old, nasty, gritty coffee all down his nicely pressed pick polo. Ha! I was shocked and frankly so excited that we got to do the rest of the shoot without shirts! Once they were un-collared their personalities just exploded and we had the BEST time. He doesn’t look like he would do something like that, does he?!!! You will definitely be seeing more of these two in the future!

Thanks L and B for being such awesome, fun, loving parents! You guys are such a pleasure to be with and I hope to see you again next summer!
