After taking a long break to recharge my batteries over the winter, I have officially kicked off my outdoor photo season with an absolutely perfect spring afternoon.  I was very lucky that my first kiddo after such a long hiatus was this charming little man.  Can you believe this head of curls?  I could seriously take photos of his hair all day.  Same with his eyes--my man A has one serious stare that will stop you in your tracks.  He is pensive, curious, sweet and perfectly silly.  He was right at home outside playing in the trees, exploring the forest and wielding his swords fashioned from various treacherous looking sticks!  Little A just turned two and has really embraced independence, daring himself to explore the dark woods (which he endearingly referred to as the jungle)--but was quick to make sure mom and dad were close behind. 

I especially enjoyed watching the relationship he has with his mom and dad.  He had a unique bond with each of his parents and though I might be biased (his mom is one of my favorite people ever), when you are in the presence of this family you can really feel how much they love each other.  A has inherited his mom's sense of humor and his dad's easygoing nature, but has a mystery all his own that I just know the girls are gonna swoon over :)  He won me over a long time ago!

Thanks again, A team.  It's always a pleasure!
