♥ Little Buddy
I’ve always envisioned taking pictures of a little boy in the middle of an auto wreckage and when Reid was born I knew this would be my chance because his dad’s family business is Skyline Auto Body in Winkler (the company I trusted my vehicle repairs with when I got in my first accident – end plug). You could say this shoot has been in the works because when I went over for Reid’s newborn shoot two years ago, I told his parents my idea and they trusted me 100% and here we are 2 years later.
This was SUCH a fun shoot! Mostly because Reid is SO cute and so entertaining! He walked around checking things out and sat on tires eating candy or in other words, we bribed him to sit on tires with candy 🙂 . He likes to wear his hood, he likes his hands in his pockets (just like his dad) and he likes to pretend he’s fixing vehicles just like his dad!
We ended the shoot off with a fun little surprise for Reid…his mom brought along his soother and gave it to him right at the end to catch his reaction. It was priceless!! He’s only allowed it at naps and bedtime so he was pretty excited to see it!
Have you ever seen such excitement?! He looooves his soother!

Becky! You have out done yourself. These are fabulous. So many favourites. Love the black and white family picture, the one of Reid covering his eyes, the ones of him on the tire in the Superman shirt, and of course the “doo-doo” ones. ♥ this little man!

Wow, when you said it went well that was a definite understatement! These are amazing! I wish I could photograph two year olds like this, I would take up photographing kids again!
