Naperville Family Photographer, Hinsdale Photographer |Play time

It has been about a year since I last saw this family, and my how the two boys have grown in that time!  At two and four years old now, they were definitely up for an adventure.  At these ages, it means lots of running around and not wanting to be still for a picture.  But that is okay, it’s why I get all hot and sweaty during my work.  I’m up for the challenge of getting them to smile and chasing them down, and tricking them into being still for just a moment.  With the younger brother, after a while, he decided it was great fun to give me high five’s, so he would come give me one, smile huge, and I would tell him “Now go back!  go back!”  And we would do it over and over again.  With his big brother, he was fascinated by the tall weeds, so we bribed him with them.  “If you stay here, I will get you a tall white one.”  “If you put your hand here, your dad will get you a tall purple one.”  Etc.  LOL  Yes, there was a lot of work going into this session, but it was great with happy smiles from all.

This location is a great one for families with all of the architecture.

 

 

 

 

 

I absolutely love this picture of the little guy trying to give me a high five.

 

 

And this one is sort of a silly one, but when he was really happy, he would open his mouth up wide for this huge open mouthed smile.  I had to get a picture of it.
