Alex

Back in the day she was Jill, or "Jilly Bean" as we sometimes called her. She was a friend of from wayyyy back in the high school days and even back then we all knew Jill would go far. These days she's got a great career, is an avid rugby player, a coach, a wife and as of a few months ago she can now add "Mom" to her resume as well. While Jill was in town a few weeks ago, she invited me to her parents' house to photograph her adorable little boy, Alex. It was a great morning...and kind of a reunion getting to see Jill and her family again after so many years!

Jill's a photographer too, so little Alex was already a natural in front of the camera...

I love photos that show children intently focused on something as simple as a blade of grass. Their little minds are so incredible and it's amazing to watch what they learn and how they learn it...
