Week 41

Abram's daycare was closed on Columbus Day, so I took the day off and we had a full day of fun!

We spent the morning at Eckert's Farm with the Brown family.  Abram and his buddy Evan made their own fun picking apples, tasting them, and tossing them.  I played photographer (of course) and had been wanting some cute apple orchard photos after seeing so many posted by other photographer mommies in my facebook feed lately. (Thanks for all the inspiration to those of you who were sharing!)  I may need to go back soon for a family pic, because I just love how these turned out.

The cuteness factor is giving me real issues with culling this week!

And then this fantastic thing happened.  Abram threw a fit - tears and all - because he wanted his photo taken.  If this is his attention-seeking behavior, I am okay with it :)  I threw a blanket over the backdrop stand and grabbed my flash.

"Mommy, take a picture like THIS!"

School-photo style (because he looked like such a big boy!  wah!)

I love #2 and #4. They really capture the energy of those two cuties!

I love the apple pictures. You used the light so well, and the pics turned out cute-as-can-be!
