Mr. Smiley...

On Monday, it was a beautifully sunny day so my friend, Susan, and her grand-son, Nolan, decided to do a little mini-shoot.  This little guy is going to be ONE YEAR OLD in a few short weeks so we thought we'd capture some shots before his big b-day.  He's seriously one of the happiest kiddos I've ever seen...I think he's spoiling me because HE makes it SO easy to take his picture!

Check out how happy he is...

 

 

 

 

Didn't I tell you he was a happy one?!  :-)

Cute factor - off the charts!

I had a short visit from my little buddy, Nolan, earlier in the month so I just HAD to grab my camera and snap away.  I don't think I've ever seen an infant smile as much as this little guy...he's SO much fun to photograph. 

I don't really have a dedicated space to do photos so we placed my $15 beanbag from Walmart on the spare bed and tossed a blanket over it for the mini-shoot.  I was backed up as far as I could go against the wall trying to shoot these photos - I wish I would've had just a tad bit more room but hey, we were just wingin' it!  Sometimes, you just have to go with it.

Warning: cute factor: 10!

You know that Quincy just HAD to be part of the shoot.  He absolutely LOVED Nolan as you can see from the kisses below! 

Didn't I warn you?  This guy is just the cutest little thing around!

Mr. Smiley...

Today I had the pleasure of visiting with Nolan for some photog practice.  He's such a great sport and smiles quite easily at just about anything!  He even got a few kisses from his new pal Quincy!

 

 

 

 

The last photo was at the very end of his visit and boy was he exhausted - not sure who was more tired...Nolan or ME?!
