A Dapper Fella | Southeastern Indiana Photographer

Have you ever met a kid who just instantly makes you smile no matter what & even when they are ornery?

I’ve known this cute guy since he was born and many times he has kept me on my toes during sessions. He’s a ham. He’s active. He knows exactly what he wants to do. And I never know what he’s going to do!

For this session he was perfect!

Last week we got together for these 4-year-old photos and we had some ideas in mind before the day arrived. We were hoping for a few outdoors, specifically by the water tower in town; however, being that this was February in Indiana, & this year’s weather is even more unpredictable, those ideas were tweaked a bit!

We started in his room, like the first time I met him, and he showed me his stuffed animal collection. No favorites of course! Then we braved the outdoors after a break in the rain for a little romp in some puddles outside the house. This ended quickly because of the biting cold though.

Then we came into town to my studio. And this boy was performing! He, like his brother 2 years ago, was a model for 4-year portraits! I’ve been smiling the whole time I edited his session because all his expressions are contagious. The goofy ones, the serious ones, and the smiling ones.

I love every time I get to see Jennifer’s boys and love that they seem to enjoy my company too! (I think my dog Charlie helps with some of that!)

To anyone seeing this post, I hope this handsome guy will make you smile!
