I know a lot of 5 year old boys.  (I have one of my own.)  I find them fascinating (and sometimes exhausting!)  They know a lot about superheroes, dinosaurs, bugs, superheroes, monster trucks, cars, superheroes, etc.  Most conversations revolve around the above topics. (at least in my house!) 

5 year old boys are also at that age where they think their mom is the most beautiful woman.  They aren’t yet embarassed to be hugged, kissed or hold hands in public.  Everything is an adventure, never boring!  Mostly, they are very loud!!! 

Yesterday I had a session with a family that are great friends of mine.  This first image pretty much sums up 5 year old boys in my book!  (Don’t worry C, there are other shots!)

hi, i\'m five

let's tell your story

I've photographed every personality type — the shy ones, the hams, the "I hate photos" crowd, all of them.

I know how to find what makes someone tick and pull it right into the frame. The goal is never a perfect pose.

It's a photo that looks so undeniably like you that you can't stop staring at it.
