I have been a Greensboro portrait photographer since 2004 but this could be one of my favorite studio sessions to date. I have worked with the Messick family for about a year now and Victoria and I planned a special studio shoot for their little one and it was a huge success!
Landon is a natural in front of the camera and he did such an awesome job during this studio session. Landon's dad, Bryan, is a huge Yankee's baseball fan, so we did a baseball theme for the first part of the shoot. Victoria brought a few of his favorites Yankee jerseys as well as a baseball, glove and bat for some fun props to play with. I let Landon play around and shot quickly and the results were amazing.
When photographing a 1.5 year old you never know if you have 5 minutes or 45 minutes of cooperation before a meltdown. Landon was super happy so we continued on to the second outfit, which was his dad's full on wedding suit, which was the cutest thing ever! Landon was decked out in the suit with a size 11 shoe to match. The results were priceless.
We concluded the session with the baseball bat as Landon was enthralled with it the whole time. The bat and then an apple juice box were the bribes for doing such a good job. I was able to deliver the proof gallery to Victoria a few days after the session date with the intention of creating a wall portrait as a Valentine's Day gift for Bryan, but we ended up doing it as an early gift as she couldn't keep the surprise due to the excitement :)
