Just for fun, here is a shot of the very first child I used as a guinea pig when I got it in my head that I was going to be a professional children's photographer. She brought him over to my little make-shift studio in my dining room a couple times and I took a whole bunch of shots. This was back in the film days, when it was more important to make each shot count, because it was going to cost you! He wandered over to the window and he looked so cute there that I took a few shots and the mom was like "don't waste the film!" because he wasn't in front of the background, but somehow this particular shot turned out to be so magical. I'm sure that the encouragement of this particular mom and the success of this one shot played a large role in inspiring and motivating me to continue as a photographer. The background is the trees in my backyard behind the window.
I still love this shot so much, and have it hanging in my studio.
