I know there is a misconception that I only have one child….. the one who follows me around all day, the one who loves to play in my studio, the one who sets up her own chairs and accessorizes herself and then yells…..MAAAA! CHEEEZE!!…….yes, Saylor. She is the easiest subject in the world to photograph, therefore I have thousands of pictures of her. My other three, especially my boys…..way WAY harder, therefore I have less pictures of them. I guarantee it’s not for the lack of cuteness, because believe me…..it’s there. It’s the cooperation factor that is missing. From their brains.
Case in point. Please note that all I did was pick up my camera and start taking pictures of him. I didn’t say one thing. I like to think of him as self-entertaining……

At least when he stopped to laugh at himself or think of what awesome pose he should do next, I got what I needed.

I love this kid more than anything. He is pure craziness but such a sweetheart. Let’s just pretend it hasn’t been three days since his last bath or shirt change. Yep he just changes into pj bottoms at night, jeans during the day…same shirt. I’ve decided to choose my battles with him and that is not one of them.
For all my Canadian friends, I am starting to edit your sessions!!!! WAHOO!!!

I totally feel for you…my 3 year old won’t even look at the camera. But those are some pretty cute silly pics of your son! And the ones where’s actually looking are perfect
Oh I love it! So so cute.. ! He is seriously the CUTEST and sweetest little boy I have ever met!
HA! too funny. He’s got PERSONALITY!
these are so so cute!! i LOVE the last pic. he is adorable!! i have 3 girls and have been debating to have a 4th kid or not… these pics really make me want to try for a little boy:) we will see:)
It must be a boy thing, they’re just plain silly! I can’t ever get a descent picture of my little boy because when he sees my camera he develops legs that go superhuman speed!
LOL! Reminds me of my crazy boys!
Isn’t that how boys are supposed to pose?!:) LOVE IT! What a little cutie…miss you guys!
I was just thinking when I saw you the other day about how much I love Maguire’s hair. I love that you keep it long, it is amazing! It’s actually kind of short in these pictures, did you guys cut it?
I love him, he is hilarious and the cutest little boy I have ever seen.
He makes me want a boy so bad! Even his uncooperative pictures are the cutest things ever!
Well I’m guess I’m one of those people that thought you only had one child! LOL! How old is this cute california beach boy? I love his name too! that is the cutest boy name I’ve ever heard!
He looks so much like you. Adorable! I feel your pain in getting him in your studio. But totally worth it…these are great!
Oh my gosh, I am in love with him!!!!!!
hahaha these are so dang cute! You will just love these pictures later on when he is older and you can look back on what a funny little kid he was. I’m going to take some like this of my son since he acts the same way, I just don’t photograph it!
i love that last picture of him, it’s so sweet. and all the other crazies, of course.
i like the “choosing your battles” over the shirt thing, good for you. seriously though. . . i’m starting to choose my own battles with norah these days. . . lol. i can’t wait until she can actually communicate!
Awwww thanks you guys! Actually looking at the silly ones today have made me want to do a collage for his room. When I showed him this post this morning he was laughing hysterically at himself, so I think I better print them for him! Too funny!
Laura do you think so?? I’ve never had anyone say my boys look like me (or Ryan for that matter!!) We don’t really know who they look like!!
These are just pure, 100% BOY! So cute, so real, exceptional.
