Eli.... 2 Years Old!

When photographing children, you just never know what you're going to get.  You have no idea what type of mood the child will be in and if they will be along for the ride or totally against it.  Well Eli rocked it!  I was so impressed by his following instructions and him cheesing it up for the camera when asked to smile.  Momma Courtney only had to count to three twice and he only had a slight meltdown.  But to his defense, it was very hot and he had been great for the previous 20 minutes!  Of course there was the occasional finger up the nose, Eli telling us no when we asked him to do something, and knocking over props, but he's a boy and he's two.  Totally expected.   
Eli, you're an awesome kid.  Courtney, keep it up.  You're doing great momma!


Special thanks to my sister (an amazing graphic designer) for designing this 11x14 chalkboard sign* for Eli's session.  I think it's fun for parents to note the big accomplishments of their child each year.  These are the accomplishments Courtney gave us and voila, the beautifully designed chalkboard.  Thank you Kailey for your hard work!
