This young man did NOT want his portraits taken when he was 2 years old, and still didn’t want them taken this year at the ripe old age of 3. He is soooo very shy and couldn’t stand being even 2 feet away from his wonderful mom.

It is actually rather cute at how bashful he is. He was trying very hard not to look at my camera and give me a smile.

Grandpa came as the secret weapon of choice, he LOVES his grandfather. I don’t blame him, Grandpa is a heck of a nice guy and pretty funny to boot. Look at this big smile!

Last year we managed some great photos of him, so this year I was prepared to be patient and knew it would take some work, we would get the smiles. The images turned out great and the gallery slideshow made mom cry, mission accomplished. :o)
