occassions & parties

the wol communion

Img_8162sl The first of the four communions I shot this weekend. These were for my good friend, Beth (she’s the one who was the 2nd shooter on the big wedding last month). Her son is such a cutiepie, but does this horrible fakesmilething where his top lip curves under grits his teeth and he looks a little nuts! But I did manage to get some real smiles out of him and they were SO great. Beth knew exactly what she wanted picture wise, so that made my life a little easier. We have such similar tastes when it comes to composition and always seem to pick the same locations. She’s actually the one who turned me on to Tanglewood (you know the park where I take ALL my fall pictures!). She said that she found the arches by the church first, but I know I did!

I think we had some fun, joking around. The height difference between her and her husband is always a challenge! Well, the height difference between her husband (who I went to high school with, by the way) and EVERYONE else is quite the challenge.Img_8170cbw Img_8216sl Img_8242pr Img_8253sl Img_8235sl Img_8286sl Img_8295sl  Img_8143sl
