Marvin, NC Family and Children’s Photographer | From shy to smiles . . .

Not everyone starts out their session ready to go and have a great time. And that’s completely ok. When we started this session, this little man was shy and just wanted to be close to his Mom. So, that’s what we captured. We had plenty of time to get adorable and happy images, and we knew that our patience would win and help us get there. I have seen him many times running around and having fun, so I knew it was only a matter of time.

But honestly, one of our favorite images from the session (both for his Mom and me), is from those shy moments. I featured the images a few weeks back for Tiny Tuesday, and it’s included here again in black and white. There is so much emotion in that one photograph.

And now I’m happy to share a few other images from the session to show the transformation from shy to smiles to outright giggles and laughter. This sweet little boy kept me running the rest of the afternoon.

Enjoy!
