I wasn't able to schedule Conor's 3 month pictures at home, so I decided we would try and do them while we are at the beach. Well the photographer I originally scheduled who seemed to have a lot of experience with children backed out. So I went with another photographer last minute. And although I think he was very nice, he did not seem to have any experience with children. He asked that we kneel in the water, not splash and look directly into the sun... what?!? You expect a 4 year old, 2 year old and 3 month old to stare directly into the sun, smile and not splash water everywhere...umm yeah right. He was so intent on getting this one photograph that we did that for like 30 minutes which wore the boys out and they were in a terrible mood after that. On top of that, Peyton accidentally threw sand in Conor's eyes so I didn't get a single photo of Conor who the whole picture taking was for. Oh well...it's the season of life we are in and these photographs with no one looking at the camera captures that I guess :)
I am glad that we ended up doing it, because we did get a couple good photos after we tried to suggest some ideas to the photographer. Also, just to give photo credit, some of the photo's are Sharon's that she took of the boys as well. So here is what we were able to get.
I was hoping for a better family picture, but this is the only one we got that has Patrick yawning...oh well
LOVE this one of my precious boys
My big 4 year old
Peyton wouldn't sit still long enough for a non-action picture
Awkward family photo winner?
LOVE how much these two love their little brother. Totally unprompted pictures. They just love to hug and kiss on him
