My Friends have the cutest kids.
… and the wildest.
This past year I’ve become really passionate about creating sessions that capture not just the child’s image, but a little glimpse into who they are at this moment in time. I’m fortunate to have friends who are always on board with my ideas for their children and I kicked off this idea earlier this spring with his big sister! I’ve loved watching my images become infused over this past year with more and more of the unique characteristics of the kids!
But when it comes to the babies this is a little harder to do. The question, What’s your 1 year old interested in? is often met with the same responses. Mom, older siblings, dad and bath time.
His family spent his actual birthday this summer traveling the country and visiting the national parks. Exploring. Being free. I wanted to incorporate a little of that memory into his pictures and as I was perusing ideas I stumbled across this one. I loved the simplicity of it and yet the whole story of running off and being with the wild things felt like a perfect fit.
I proposed the idea to mom and she agreed that he certainly is “King of the Wild Things”.
